    half the price I paid for my merrell trail gloves a week ago, (insert sarcasm) awesome! (end sarcasm)

    I'm happy with the merrell's only have about 4 miles in 'em, but I certainly would have jumped on that deal.

    Don't be too disheartened. The NB's still have a 4mm heel drop, whereas your Merrell's have none!

    I just picked up a pair of these from DSW yesterday, they felt great on my feet, I prefer my salomon GTX 3 for training/everyday but so far I prefer these for running/jogging on concrete and dirt.

    You might be nit picking just a tad. Tony Krupicka (an endurance running super stud) put a lot of input into the Minimus design back in the day, and he was one of the trend setters for minimalist running.

    On a side note: ideeli.com has Vivobarefoots half off for today only.

    I founhnd after getting used to the barefoot/minimal stuff the toe box on the MT10/20 was not large enough. Supposedly addressed in the Zero's.
    Think for yourself. Question authority.

    Appreciate the moral support. No buyer's remorse here, I paid a fair price, deals come and go can't catch 'em all!

    Ordered. Thanks for the heads up. Now .... I just hope I ordered the correct size.

    Dang ... already shipped. Not too bad for Botach.

    I ordered a pair for myself today. I like my five fingers but with the new change(or shall I say addition), you can't wear them in the Army PT uniform anymore. I normally use a pair of Nike Frees for uniform and long runs, but I want to shift to these.

    I did however go to a store to try them on to get the correct size before ordering.
