Review on πŸ”₯ Unleash Your Speed with the Merrell Vapor Glove Runner Molten by Eldrick Carlton

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Pleasant feel, disappointing quality

I really like the feeling of movement in the Vapor Glove 3. The absence of almost any material between you and the ground makes me feel secure, not to mention the increased strength a plumb my ankles and knees. Aside from the size 13 being too wide in the toe box (I tried size 12 but they were too small) there is nothing about the fit of the shoe that I didn't like. Unfortunately, after about a week of using the Vapor Glove every half day, I noticed the sole of my right boot was falling apart. The same started happening with the left boot in about the same place (in front where the boot flexes to allow the toes to flex). I've used the Vapor gloves sparingly at the gym without even taking them to the track. I am afraid that with constant use the soles will just fall apart and at some point the shoes will become unusable. not what I expected from a higher class runner. If Merrell fixes this issue I'd like to try the Vapor gloves again, probably in a size 12.5 for a better fit.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Easy maintainability
