Who should buy Merrell Cozy Glove

The Merrell Cozy Glove is an ideal pair for those who:

• are looking for a footwear that will deliver a barefoot-like experience
• want an indoor shoe that can keep the feet warm during winter

Who should NOT buy Merrell Cozy Glove

If you are looking for a minimalist walking shoe that is more substantial for outdoor use, consider the Vibram Furoshiki ($110). There are also Merrel Vapor Glove 5 and Vivobarefoot Primus Lite II which can be used for a jogging session.

Merrell Cozy Glove: The perfect house shoes

A lot of wearers attested that the Cozy Glove from Merrell is an “unbelievably comfortable” house slipper. Some even said that it is an “indoor do-it-all shoe,” which makes it reliable footwear for moving around the house.

You will not need toe warmers during the cold season

The fleece upper of the Merrell Cozy Glove will keep your feet “warm and snugly.” You will also not have to worry about your feet overheating since this is “warm but not hot” thanks to its fabric that is “warm but thin enough” to let the feet breathe.

What’s so special about the Cozy Glove’s sole?

The Cozy Glove from Merrell features a Vibram outsole, which many wearers love due to its exceptional traction. Users said that this footwear is “perfect for wood or tile floors” because of its Vibram sole.

Aside from its remarkable grip, the “sole is strong enough to take some abuse,” allowing users to wear this pair all the time.

This Merrell model does not fit like a glove

A lot of wearers, especially those with wide feet, hoped that the Merrell Cozy Glove would stretch over time.

According to some users, the overall design of the heel pushes their feet forwards, which causes their toes to hit the front and go directly against the fabric.

Wear the Cozy Glove effortlessly

“Putting them on is a breeze!” With the slip-on design of this Merrell shoe, wearers can slide in without any problem. Even with this design, the feet will not slide out of the shoe. A “slight tug on the heel” is enough to put the shoe in place and lock the feet in.  

Be careful with this shoe, this is fragile

The Merrell Cozy Glove should be handled with care. A user shared that in just less than 2 weeks of having this pair, the inside of one of the shoe is already falling apart. This shoe has "failed to live up to expectations."
