The Merrell Barefoot 2011 Collection features innovations such as narrower lasts and the Omni-Fit Lacing System. The Omni-Fit Lacing System efficiently integrates the shoe laces, the tongue and the upper part of the shoe to provide a much better fit for your feet. So whether you are in the middle of the track or a tough trail, you are assured that your shoes are securely fastened to your feet. The thicker cushioned forefoot and more padding in the tongue and heel gives you extra comfort without sacrificing the weight.

Dr. William Rossi in a 1999 article in Podiatry Management said it best with regards to going barefoot :

It took 4 million years to develop our unique human foot and our consequent distinctive form of walk, a remarkable feat of bioengineering. Yet, in only a few thousand years, and with one carelessly designed instrument, our shoes, we have warped the pure anatomical form of human walk, obstructing its engineering efficiency, afflicting it with strains and stresses and denying it its natural grace of form and ease of movement head to foot.
