Merrell

Vapor Glove 7 Trail Running Shoe - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"On smooth trails and paved loops, this shoe gives me the ground feel I want without losing essential protection. The mesh upper vents incredibly well, the Barefoot 2 platform keeps my stride natural, and the Vibram outsole grips better than most ultralight shoes. It’s minimal in all the right ways."

Warm, predictable trails call for a shoe that lets us move with precision, and the Merrell Vapor Glove 7 Trail Running Shoe brings that grounded, intuitive feel from the first step. The fully recycled mesh upper keeps airflow steady as we settle into a natural rhythm, while the padded collar softens the fit during long stretches of steady movement. A protective toe cap adds confidence when weaving through packed dirt or park paths.

Recycled materials shape the lining, laces, and footbed, bringing an intentional design ethos to its minimalist build. The integrated EVA foam softens impact without dulling terrain feedback, and the Barefoot 2 construction keeps our stance centered and natural. Paired with a Vibram TC5+ outsole for secure traction across mixed surfaces, the Vapor Glove 7 Trail Running Shoe delivers a connected ride for everyday runs and technical training alike.
