Why We Like The Trail Glove 7 Running Shoe
Designed for minimalist runners, Merrell updated the fit of the Trail Glove 7 Running Shoe to optimize natural foot positioning and toe splay. A 14mm stack height adds a touch more cushion and support than the previous version, but the FLEXconnect dual-direction grooves in the midsole enhance the fit for uncompromised ground connection and flexibility.

Classy fit
Nice roomy fit around my toes. Very light in weight which is very nice. Would like the heel to be a little higher , for a more secure fit. Great in the gym.

Great fit with a little heel support
Like many other reviewers, I have worn previous iterations of this shoe and loved them. I decided to give the 7’s a try, ordering my new athletic shoe/boot size of a Women’s 8. They fit perfectly with a large enough toe box and overall width. I ended up putting in a small gel heel cushion which really helped for comfort when walking/hiking longer distances. The adjustable laces near the heel also help to get the right fit for my narrow heels. They are breathable, and supportive on multiple surfaces (dirt, cobbles, asphalt, sand). Many shoes don’t transition well from one to the other, but these do. Will bring with me to an upcoming trip to Europe where cobblestones reign supreme. Otherwise, i just love wearing them at home for walking/light hiking and general daily wear.

Significant arch support
Significant arch support for a barefoot shoe. And not very friendly to wide feet. Returned. Good quality and super rugged outsole though.

Waiting for my 5th pair!
These are possibly my favorite shoes ever, and just ordered my 5th pair over several years. They are minimal in just the right way with a smaller, low profile 'look;, but still have great support, all day comfortable, and highly durable. The fit for me is perfect in my regular size 8 for sneakers.

Bring back Trail.Glovr 5!!!! Everything after the 5 has not been a true barefoot. I am extremely disappointed.

Not foot shaped
I love the idea of these shoes, but am confused why merrell has gone from actual foot shaped shoes with a lovely wider toe box, to these where the heel and toe are almost the same width??? Every time i walk into my closet to pick between these and my old merrells that are getting close to falling apart, these stay on the shelf.

Too long and too narrow
I just got my 2nd pair of these and I am so sad that they are longer and narrower than the pair I bought last year. I am going to have to return them. I don't feel comfortable exchanging them with the fit being so far off.

Lots of control
I purchased these for a trip to Italy where we planned to hike because they are light weight and less bulky than my Moabs. I absolutely loved them on the trail. The trail was pretty rocky with lots of large, uneven surfaces to navigate. These shoes really allowed me to feel the surface and gave me the control that a bare foot would....yet, they are supportive and comfortable. I was skeptical they would work as well as they did, but I will buy them again when this pair wears out.

Lightweight, breathable, sturdy sole.
I am very active and also have a physical job so I'm on my feet most of the day on most days. These shoes are so comfy and I don't have any foot pain at the end of the day like I do with literally every other shoe I have worn. A+. I now want them in another colour also.
