Review on Yellow Merrell Bare Access XTR Shoes for Men by Raden Maldonado

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great training shoe

This is not a high quality pair of shoes. I've had other minimalist Merrell shoes that were of a much higher quality. Upper/fabric torn from stepping on a rounded tree root! The material also wears out in the toe crease. The rubber separates from the front of the toe. They have been used to walk the dog for 3 months; no trail running or anything. I paid 46 Canadian dollars but it turned out to be a $30 pair of shoes. I'm sorry to everyone who paid the $130 MSRP. Merrell must be sick. You are cozy. and light (no wonder!), which is why they get 2 stars.

Pros
  • Offers a barefoot feel for better foot flexibility
Cons
  • Vulnerable to damage when wet
