What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The tongue is part of the shoe and folds under the laces. The toe box is a bit wider, which i like. My only gripe is that the right shoe has a slightly raised seam(?
The shoe is super lightweight, and breathable. They’re lightweight and perfect for everything from running to casual wear.
Compared to my other barefoot zero-drop shoes, the merrell vp4 is the lightest and provides the most ground-feel. It has great grip, and the sole is not too thin. If you are accustomed to barefoot running, this shoe is great.
These shoes are amazing! For me, they are tried and true. Love love love these shoes! Just bought 2 pairs of these shoes.

In my search for a replacement amazon gets kudos for taking back three different brands that just didn't do the trick.

I don't know what i was hoping for in all those other brands.
