Merrell Trail Glove 8 Shoes - Women's - Black - 5 UK

Merrell Trail Glove 8 is a minimalist trail shoe designed for natural movement and close ground contact. It features a zero millimetre heel drop and a flexible construction to deliver a barefoot-like running sensation on trails and firm surfaces. The lightweight FloatPro midsole provides cushioning without diminishing ground feel, while Flexconnect technology supports mobility and stability across varied terrain. A Vibram outsole offers reliable traction on dry and slightly damp trails, and the upper is breathable and lightweight, making the shoe well suited to warm conditions and high-intensity running.

The design emphasises a natural fit with breathable mesh and TPU upper materials and a Burrito tongue that wraps the foot. Merrell Barefoot 2 construction aims to keep the foot in a natural position. The shoe incorporates 100% recycled laces, breathable mesh lining, and mesh footbed cover, with a 30% recycled integrated EVA foam insole and FloatPro foam midsole for lightweight comfort. An outsole in Vibram TC5+ provides traction suitable for outdoor multi-sport activities, crafted with Merrell’s barefoot-oriented construction.
