Review: Best travel spare shoes, disappear in luggage. - My 3rd pair - I prefer these and the 7’s over the new 8 model so got these at a good price preemptively. New ones are more “shoe” like and defeat the purpose. Perfect travel shoe - fits easily in a backpack or carry on, great for a quick run or hotel gym workout on already tight carryon work trips. Actually great for deadlifts and such, zero drop, wide toe box, almost barefoot feeling. With or without socks. Great for vacation, good traction on trails, rocky beaches, or even as water shoes with a little more backbone than speedo slip-ons. Dry fast too and are easy to clean. Good ventilation but prefer to use with socks if using as a sneaker to walk around town/ship. Looks like a sneaker, decent enough to wear around town. Haven’t hand any pushback at restaurants, etc. No arch support, easily fixed with an insert for longer treks/walking. And I’ve come to appreciate the sole extending over the front of the toes for added protection. Otherwise very light shell. Only word of caution, avoid thorny trails, hickory trees or construction zones. Nail or thorn WILL go through like butter. Don’t ask.
Review: SERiOUS BAREFOOT/MiNiMALiST SHOE WiTH OTHER FUNCTiONALiTY TOOi - if purchasing as a barefoot or minimalist running shoe, this would be one of the top hard core serious such out there. my other comparable that i run in is the xero speed force. both are very similar but for hard core barefoot/minimalist runners the vapor glove 6 requires full conditioning capable of using a shoe with only 6mm of sole. the xero is only slightly more forgiving with 7.5mm. these are both exceptional shoes for that use, probably the best out there. they both have the option of functionality for other activities, weightlifting or in the gym use being the most obvious, the flat grippy soles will work well with weights, plyometrics, etc. casual use is another great use for these as they look super with well fitting jeans, or shorts. they both fit super well, but if pressed i'd say the vapor glove is a bit more like a sock. while there's much confusion about the sizing, and i thought i'd need to return the glove for a much smaller size, they were in fact correct that it's true to size. i take a 12.5 in BOTH the xero speed force and the vapor glove. the vapor glove is about a quarter inch longer at that size, but that all is taken up by larger padding behind the heel, which i did not at all feel in any negative way. so when wearing the same size in each of these shoes, if you look down you should see they are equally as long and give equal amount of space to your foot. if you look behind your heel tho, you will see the extra quarter inch back there...which means it's of no consequence to sizing. finally, while most of xero's runners have fronts that look a bit like clown shoes, this vapor glove is a bit more form fitting up front, so while a very curved last, it doesn't have that clown shoe look. and neither does my xero, the speed force, mainly because it is so minimal they don't have the weight to waste to put that extra material in the front. so, in the end (no pun intended) i'd say these are both exceptional shoes which also LOOK exceptional when used casually with jeans. the xeros are a bit more pricey, and the the vapor glove a bit more form fitting like a sock. as for that casual wear issue, i totally plan to ditch my cowboy boots and wear my black vapor gloves with my boot cut jeans, they look so good. and i love my cowboy boots. as for which one i'll wear more in my minimal runs of over an hour on asphalt and concrete? probably the xeros, only because of that extra 1.5mm of sole. i've just transitioned over to these very hard core run shoes and may use the vapor gloves slightly less on hard surface runs only because i can still use a bit more toughening up of legs/feet. but if you're up to it, these are probably the ultimate barefoot/minimal shoe.

*by J***Y on August 23, 2023*

if purchasing as a barefoot or minimalist running shoe, this would be one of the top hard core serious such out there. my other comparable that i run in is the xero speed force. both are very similar but for hard core barefoot/minimalist runners the vapor glove 6 requires full conditioning capable of using a shoe with only 6mm of sole. the xero is only slightly more forgiving with 7.5mm. these are both exceptional shoes for that use, probably the best out there. they both have the option of functionality for other activities, weightlifting or in the gym use being the most obvious, the flat grippy soles will work well with weights, plyometrics, etc. casual use is another great use for these as they look super with well fitting jeans, or shorts. they both fit super well, but if pressed i'd say the vapor glove is a bit more like a sock. while there's much confusion about the sizing, and i thought i'd need to return the glove for a much smaller size, they were in fact correct that it's true to size. i take a 12.5 in BOTH the xero speed force and the vapor glove. the vapor glove is about a quarter inch longer at that size, but that all is taken up by larger padding behind the heel, which i did not at all feel in any negative way. so when wearing the same size in each of these shoes, if you look down you should see they are equally as long and give equal amount of space to your foot. if you look behind your heel tho, you will see the extra quarter inch back there...which means it's of no consequence to sizing. finally, while most of xero's runners have fronts that look a bit like clown shoes, this vapor glove is a bit more form fitting up front, so while a very curved last, it doesn't have that clown shoe look. and neither does my xero, the speed force, mainly because it is so minimal they don't have the weight to waste to put that extra material in the front. so, in the end (no pun intended) i'd say these are both exceptional shoes which also LOOK exceptional when used casually with jeans. the xeros are a bit more pricey, and the the vapor glove a bit more form fitting like a sock. as for that casual wear issue, i totally plan to ditch my cowboy boots and wear my black vapor gloves with my boot cut jeans, they look so good. and i love my cowboy boots. as for which one i'll wear more in my minimal runs of over an hour on asphalt and concrete? probably the xeros, only because of that extra 1.5mm of sole. i've just transitioned over to these very hard core run shoes and may use the vapor gloves slightly less on hard surface runs only because i can still use a bit more toughening up of legs/feet. but if you're up to it, these are probably the ultimate barefoot/minimal shoe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Barefoot shoes are amazing
*by A***R on February 10, 2026*

For context, I have completely flat wide feet, likely due to wearing crocs and being barefoot for a majority of my childhood. For people like myself, most doctors and shoe store employees have recommended orthotics and ultra supportive shoes, which I did my best to follow. After years of injuries and difficulty working out consistently, my old shoes were breaking down and since they were minimalist trail running shoes that had been more comfortable than expected I decided to go all in on minimalism and get the vapor gloves 6. They initially looked strange, but they were surprisingly comfortable and well fitting. Going all in on minimalism with these shoes has been pretty life changing. Overly supportive bulky shoes were my problem this whole time and while nothing can cure so many injuries and years of wear on my joints, these have stopped the aggravation and allowed me to hit new heights for my cardio and general comfort.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Get these before they "improve" the design (and it thereby sucks).
*by T***E on February 16, 2026*

Everything that the New Balance Minimus line wishes it could be (although these days the NB ones seem to be trying to look like Brooks or Nike or something: barf). Highly recommended if thin, light, and form-fitting is your thing. You will feel the texture of the ground, but that's the point. Perfect for taijiquan. Very breathable. Great traction. I fuggin' love these shoes.
