The Merrell Bare Access 3 and Bare Access Arc 3 (women's model) are Running shoes with a minimalist concept, ideal for a correct transition between traditional shoes with drops and natural footwear. This model has the ideal protection and drop for a gradual adaptation without risk of injury.
The upper and the rest of the outer structure have been improved. It is now more durable and flexible, the lateral tensors have been slightly modified for greater adaptability to the foot.
They have a 0 drop and 8mm of cushioning (sole), which provide protection and adaptation to barefoot footwear.
Its upper has been designed with a double 100% breathable mesh system and together with the new MerrellMSelect FRESH technology, the shoe will be protected against odor-causing microbes.
Upper protected by a rubber toe cap sealed to the mesh and molded eyelets for strong, secure lacing.
Reflective detailing for increased visibility in low light conditions.
For added grip at any time and on any surface, the Bare Access 3 has been fitted with a Vibramoutsole.
