The Merrell story began in 1981 when Clark Matis and John Schweitzer left their executive positions at the Rossignol Ski Company and joined forces with Randy J Merrell, who was a maker of custom boots, to develop an affordable high-performance hiking boot. The first Merrell boot wa launched in 1983 and was proclaimed “the most comfortable and functional boots in North America” by Backpacker Magazine. A women’s last especially designed for women’s feet, which are significantly different to men’s in bone structure and stride, was developed so that women could also benefit from Merrell’s comfortable, performance boots.

Combining the benefits of barefoot walking and running, the minimalist shoes form the Merrell barefoot range have the hallmark of zero drop, allowing a more natural gait and posture when running and walking.

A Vibram sole gives high grip both indoors and outdoors and giving lightly cushioned protection to your feet.
