Merrell recently launched their new M-Connect Series, an entire collection of footwear that takes the traditional Merrell Barefoot concept and expands it through a complete selection of shoes for running, training, and even hiking. Over the past couple of months, one of my male testers and I have been wearing a sampling of shoes that span the whole collection for all of our outdoor activities.
Last summer, Merrell announced their partnership with Vibram to produce a line of barefoot shoes. I was recently sent a pair of the women's Pace Gloves to test out. Offering just enough protection for your feet, these shoes provide a great barefoot experience whether running on the trails or just walking the streets.
Almost creating as much buzz as the Inov-8 Evoskin unveiling last week, Merrell and Vibram announced they are teaming up to bring you the Merrell Barefoot line, due out Spring 2011. The two companies are looking to bring barefoot to the outdoors, beyond just barefoot running, through a progression of outdoor shoes.
