A barefoot shoe for trail use.
A barefoot shoe for trail use. As with all Merrell barefoot footwear, the idea here is to give your feet and legs work the way they are intended to. This is achieved by making the footwear flexible and reducing the shock absorption to a minimum. They do, however, provide you shelter from abrasion and small sharp objects.

It’s wise to start barefoot exercise in small doses, so your muscles and tendons have time to get used to the challenge.
