I ’ ve loved these shoes for fast workouts and racing on smooth dirt and moderately technical rocky trails. They stay comfortable all day and are a huge improvement over my previous racing shoes

5 GustavoH379107924
Comfort, style and beauty. Not to mention performance! The color on these shoes is remarkable. They are stable, have good bounce to them and the grip is fantastic.

5 Grayday44
Trail runs are my new favorite. These add stability and spring to my step when running. Highly recommend for trail running.

5 Austin944809232
I just ran a 50km race with 5, 000 feet of elevation gain and loss wearing these shoes. I was nervous that the toe box height would be too short, but that didn ’ t end up being an issue at all. I didn ’ t get a single blister after getting them from other trail shoes. The front toe shield definitely saved my big toe more than once after slamming into some rocks. I ’ d recommend them for lighter mud and snow conditions, but overall they were very comfortable and fast. They fit true to size to my vaporflys. Very satisfied and an eye catching piece.

This is my second pair of Vivo Barefoot Primus. It took a few months to transition to wearing them consistently. I enjoy the stability and flexibility of the shoe.

I ’ ve worn these every other day for 2 months and they feel great, and I feel more grounded and balanced during workouts compared to a thinner soled running shoe. I noticed the rubber was starting to peel away from the fabric, so that ’s not ideal. Either way, happy with the price I got them for at the outlet.

I recently got my 1st pair base off my own research prior to ordered. I am thankful every day since, they seem to almost mold to my foot every step I take, the comfort is next level and the design is inline with the every day culture we live, priced phenomenal, literally changed my cardio workouts in a way no other shoe to date has done, these will win you over in more ways than one if you are not already a fan! Even sent a pair to my brother who is a hard shoe critic, Enjoy!

5 Brad A
Super plush with great stability! Medium heel to toe drop with a high stack has really helped my plantar fasciitis and tendinitis. Hard to find a really plush shoe thats really stable. Now please make them with gortex!!!!

5 Jaketopdog
I was so excited to hear that the UltraGlide was finally coming back! I immediately ordered a pair and they are so wonderful! Please don ’ t ever discontinue this shoe!! It has just the right amount of cushioning and stability. I spent the weekend putting miles on my new pair.

5 Jonathan
For the North American market the UG4 is a quantum leap forward from the previously released UG2. Relieve Sphere and optiFOAM specifically are new components that take an already established UG line up a full level to being a serious competitor. Visually UG4 looks overconstructed, there is a lot going on, but it is remarkably lighter in hand and underfoot than I anticipated. Weighing in at 10oz UG4 hits all of the desirables: durability, stability, responsive, confidence- inspiring, and balanced. This shoe checks all the boxes and passes the all- seasons checklist for running in the Cascades. Another homerun from Salomon!

5 Julio
I bought these a month ago and I 'm so happy I did! Great fit and support for walking, working out or jogging. They are also great for hiking if you in to that it.

5 TheOriginalNate
The ASU 2 keeps the fun and speed from the original, but refines the fit and feel. Far more stable feeling underfoot with noticeably better grip in the mud. The additional heel padding kept my foot locked in and comfortable. I went true to size and had ample room around my forefoot and toes. Overall I think this shoe is worth the upgrade from the first version and different enough to try out if the first was n't the right fit for you

[ Been wearing vivos religiously for the last 4- 5 years but had never been a huge fan of knit style shoes so I never tried these.

Love these shoes! Have been a big fan of the Ultra Glide series and these do not dissapoint. Excellent grip, like a marshmellow underfoot. A great shoe that can do it all. Long distance, daily training, can even handle a bit of technical. If you want one shoe that can do it all this is it.

5 Amber
I ’ ve been running long trail miles in these shoes and I absolutely love them. From the very first run, the comfort stood out — the cushioning feels plush underfoot without being overly soft or unstable, which makes these great for long days out on the trail. They don ’ t feel bulky or heavy. The fit feels true to size and secure, and the outsole handles varied terrain with confidence thanks to the Contagrip lugs — I ’ ve been able to run everything from smooth dirt roads to rocky singletrack without any major slip- ups. Overall, these have become my go- to shoe for long trail runs. I ’ d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a cushioned trail shoe that can go the distance.

I bought these sneakers for work since I ’ m on concrete floors for 9- hour shifts, and they ’ ve been amazing. They feel like walking on marshmallows, super bouncy and cushioned…and they ’ ve been helping with my back/sciatic pain. The toe box is perfectly wide without feeling sloppy, and my usual size 9. 5 fit well. I also took them on a walk in the woods today and was impressed by how good the grip was on rocky terrain. I was a little nervous that the ankle gaiter would feel tight or uncomfortable, but it ’s actually really soft and stretchy. My ankles swell by the end of my shift and I have high volume feet and these shoes handle everything like a champ. I can ’ t tell you how long I e been searching for wide toe boxes that are actually wide with a zero drop cushioned sole. Overall, I ’ m extremely happy with them and will probably grab another pair for outside of work if I can find another coupon!

Absolutely incredible running shoes! These are so comfortable and efficient. My first run with them was only going to be 6. 2 miles but ended up being 7. 5. These shoes will take you the distance, no doubt. And I mean, come on- look at those colors! I was skeptical based on the reviews and certain runners input however, I am very happy with my purchase!!! Goodbye old running shoes!

5 k166542928
These are really great shoes. Hands down probably the best running shoes I 've owned. I 've been suffering from ball of foot pain( metatarsalgia) under the second toe for about 8 months, and it really started to flare up within the last 1. 5 months. I tend to be a forefoot striker and typically run about 5- 7 miles when I go out. Just went on a 7 mile run with the AlphaFly Next% 2 and they really did help to neutralize the impact on the 2nd metatarsal head to the point where I felt no soreness or pain post run. Nike recommended a size 9. 5, but I ended up buying a size 11 and it fits perfect. Hope Nike continues to make shoes like this since it helped me avoid having to give up running.

5 HectorM627345014

[ Comfortable, lightweight, and supportive- everything I look for in a good running shoe, with the added bonus of looking cool and turning heads at the gym.( Blaze orange shoes tend to do that!)

[ Omg, omg, omg. I just got done taking a run in my air zoom alpha next 2%& I can ’ t stop talking about this shoe!

I can ’ t say enough about the energy return on this shoe. It makes Mile runs effortless. It ’s super light weight, comfortable& returns energy like. I thing I ’ ve felt before. If you try this shoe you too will be hooked as I was. Once u get past the different appearance, you ’ ll be sold.

Not perfect but the best racing supershoe that I ’ ve used among VF2, VF3, adizero adios, AF3. Just received VF4s but yet to run in them. My first run in these AF3s was a shakeout before a half marathon. Was concerned as the shoes squeaked for about 2. 5 miles but that finally subsided. Have run 2 half marathons in these- each time was PR by 4 minutes. Best thing for me is the low volume toe box. I have narrow, low volume feet. The VF3s are way too baggy in the toe box for me. These shoes do “ hoof clop ” loudly like the old tempo next% trainers. Ppl always turning their head as I come up on them🤣

5 schaeffmum3
Well. I bought 4 pairs. These are everything I was hoping for. Essentially a springy, barefoot run with great energy return. All have worn well unless I try to take them off without undoing the laces, or scrape them on concrete. I wear mine daily. I have narrow feet with exceptionally high arches. As for this model compared to the Alphafly 2 and original…they improved them tremendously. They are snug without pressure, better foam profile, and the lacing system doesn ’ t untie easily. Oh, and they look cool. Final assessment- for a daily 5k- ❤️👍🏻💨

These shoes are amazing! Ran multiple marathons in these shoes this fall. They are the most comfortable carbon shoe I have run in yet. They have a feeling of propulsion while running in them and make energy usage feel efficient. I really love these shoes and ca n't wait to run more races in them!

5 dr99
The new HOVR+ foam makes this shoe so special. It ’s that perfect combination of responsive and plush. The shoe also has a slight rocker feel, which pairs well with the carbon plate for a propulsive stride. Really easy to stay light on your feet and keep a high cadence. I recently used for a marathon, and my legs have never felt fresher over the last few miles. Highly recommend adding this super shoe to your race day kit!

5 Lynzy
This is a whole new shoe compared to v1 and v2. Much softer underfoot and more comfortable upper! Definitely my new go- to race shoe.

5 Michael B
Great shoe, true to size. Ran 35 miles in them and had no problem.

5 kmckay
After several months of running in these shoes, I can confidently say I 'm impressed with their performance. The cushioning underfoot is super comfy, giving me just the right amount of support without feeling too stiff. Plus, they breathe really well, so my feet stay cool and fresh even on those hot summer runs. The sizing feels true to size and for the price, these shoes are an absolute steal – comfy, supportive, and breathable, they 've become my go- to for all my runs.

5 DJI30
So far I have about 65 miles on my pair of morphlites. They are one of the best shoes I have ever owned for the price. The upper feels very durable and substantial without being hot or stiff. The sole provides a good amount of cushion under foot. I have noticed minimal compression lines in the sole within my 65 miles on them. It appears larger in stack height than they actually are which if you are missing minimal stack shoes in the sea of high stacks these are an awesome option. The tread is not Vibram which keeps the cost lower but it is still a nice rubber. The lug pattern and shorter lug depth makes them great on roads but, in my opinion they really shine on gravel and fire roads. They have more than enough trail cred that you can take them on some beginner trail running too. I will say that when I attempted to take them on so real trail runs they definitely did not feel great but, that is certainly not what they are designed to do. I give kudos to merrell for coming out with a solid hybrid trail/pavement shoe.

5 ShoeGuy92
I bought these to kick off the spring outdoor running season and I am very pleased with my purchase. These shoes are lightweight and provide great support during my runs. I highly recommend trying them out!

I did a couple of long walks this fall with these sneakers. However I am saving them for the spring of 2024. I like the style and I like the fit of Merrell hikers but recently expanded my horizons to include Merrell trail runners. I am a good shoe snob and only where the best supporting shoes for my feet. I have a condition called neuropathy which severely affects my feet. Comfort is everything to me, then style. Merrell has both

Great shoes. Very comfortable on long runs and the grip is fabulous.

5 Jen S
[ I absolutely love these sneakers. They are so comfortable. They are great for walking around all day or going for a run. I love the colour. They are fun and bright. I usually have to break my sneakers in and get heel blisters. Fortunately I didn ’ t have this issue with these.

5 bixmar
[ I got these just in time for my trip to the Smokey Mountains for a winter hiking adventure. They fit perfectly true to size and were instantly comfortable. We spent several days on intermediate level trails with our dog. I felt sure footed and comfortable no matter the terrain we encountered. The shoes really helped me to navigate even on the days after heavy rains. Love these shoes.

5 Jillie
[ These are an awesome pair of Merrells! The color is great and the uppers are soft and stretchy. The soles are a perfect mix of rigid and flexible, providing enough support without being too hard. They don ’ t slip off my heels. I wore them out of the box all day sightseeing and my feet were tired but they didn ’ t hurt. Great shoe!!!

5 troberts6971
the title pretty much sums it up. If you ’ re between 1/2 sizes, order the higher size. Only criticism is that the sole might wear out much faster than a normal rubber sole. Only have about 20 miles in them, so time will tell.

5 Fastwalker1
These unisex fat tire shoes are very comfortable for walking, but the size runs a little small so you need to get a half size bigger; that is, if you normally wear a size 7 then you should get a 7 1/2. These shoes mold to the shape of your foot after you wear them a few times. They are also very fashionable and I get a lot of compliments when I wear them.

5 KeithN
The shoe is surprisingly light. It has very good cushioning and is very stable. The tread on the bottom is very grippy and if you are on a treadmill it might take some time getting used to it.

Ultralight Footwear

On this page...

  • What are the benefits of ultralight footwear for outdoor activities?
  • How does the material used in ultralight footwear affect performance?
  • What types of activities are ultralight footwear suitable for?
  • Are ultralight footwear options durable enough for rugged terrain?
  • How do I choose the right fit for ultralight footwear?

Frequently Asked Questions For Ultralight Footwear

Ultralight footwear is designed to minimize weight while providing essential support and comfort, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking and trail running. The lightweight construction allows for greater agility and speed, reducing fatigue during long treks. Additionally, many ultralight options feature breathable materials that enhance ventilation, keeping your feet cool and comfortable.

The materials used in ultralight footwear play a crucial role in performance, as they often prioritize lightweight construction without sacrificing durability. Many models incorporate advanced synthetic fabrics or mesh that offer breathability and flexibility, allowing for a natural range of motion. Additionally, these materials are typically designed to withstand various weather conditions, enhancing the overall functionality of the footwear.

Ultralight footwear is versatile and suitable for a range of activities, including trail running, hiking, and even casual wear. Their lightweight nature makes them particularly appealing for long-distance runners and backpackers who prioritize minimizing weight. However, they can also be a great choice for everyday use, especially in warmer climates where breathability is key.

While ultralight footwear is designed to be lightweight, many models are constructed with durable materials that can withstand rugged terrain. The key is to look for options that balance weight with robust construction, often featuring reinforced areas to protect against wear and tear. It's important to consider the specific use case and terrain when selecting ultralight footwear to ensure it meets your durability needs.

Choosing the right fit for ultralight footwear is essential for comfort and performance. It's recommended to try on different sizes and styles, as fit can vary between brands. Pay attention to the toe box space, heel snugness, and overall feel, ensuring that there is enough room for your toes to move without being too loose, which can lead to blisters during activities.
