Review: A better value than Merrell - I've had several pair of both Tesla and Merrell Vapor Gloves now and for the money, the Tesla is a better value. Take the Merrell name off the shoe and there isn't a bit of difference between these two shoes for comfort, durability, fit, longevity, or the mileage you can get out of them. Bottom line- if name brand recognition is important to you, get the Merrell Vapor Glove. If value is important to you, get the Tesla. But, if you believe that spending 2-3 times as much on the name brand item over the lesser known brand that is equal or better in value, go right ahead. It's your money. Update- After 74 miles (120KM) of road running on asphalt and concrete, you can see the results on the soles on these shoes. That distance only counts the road use, not treadmill. If you want to include that, it would be about three times as much, but I dont track my treadmill mileage. Granted, some of this wear and tear can also be linked to my gait. Results- Minimalist shoes like the TSLA naturally force you to run on the front part of your foot since you dont have the unnatural cushioning that most wedge shaped soles have. These are Zero Drop, minimal padding and shaped like your foot. Hence, natural running. And since the body is self-correcting when it comes to running, by not having the extra absorbtion of all that cushioning on your heels, you will naturally keep your heels off the ground, use your arch and front half of your foot to run; thereby reducing the shock and impact on your lower legs, knees, hips, etc.. Notice no wear at all on the heels of these shoes. I still recommend not only these shoes for running, but just about any kind of zero drop, minimalist, foot shaped running shoe. The low cost of these is a definite advantage. I'm quite sure they are made in the same factories as the name brand shoes that you'll pay 3-4 times as much for. Remember, running should be like sex. If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right.
Review: Like Vapor Glove, Only More Affordable - So, these are obviously “inspired” by the Merrell Vapor Glove, which is the dirty, beat up shoe in the accompanying photos. I am a committed barefooter, and when I wear shoes, I have done okay with the Vapor Glove. Last two times, however, even though ordering same size of Vapor Glove, the sizing felt off, and they didn’t feel as good on my feet as the completely battered ones in the photo, which are my original Merrells. I was tired of forking over almost a hundred bucks for a shoe that didn’t feel *great* so I thought I would give the TLSA a try. I have had them about a month and they are doing great. I don’t do hard starts and stops in them, and thanks to an old labral tear, I no longer run, so they are perfect walking, TRX, lifting, body weight shoe. They are roomy so I can grip with my toes, the soles are flexible, and there is nothing bothering me from the inside of the shoe, though it does feel better to spread toes with a sock, as it is not an entirely smooth surface up in there. I still wear without socks, though. You can see from photos that the TSLA is a little less form-fitted, a little more boxy than the Merrell, but for what I want — which is a shoe that keeps me from burning my feet on the Florida asphalt, or cutting them on rocks or glass, these shoes do a GREAT job. These shoes do not offer “support,” which I don’t want anyway. I prefer to let the natural working of my foot muscles create a stable arch and let my foot function the way it is supposed to. They are a good option for a wide-toe-box, zero-drop shoe. I am a six-foot woman with a size 11 women’s shoe, which is usually a men’s 9 1/2. I bought these 1/2 size up, in a men’s 10, and they are a *smidge* big, but it’s what I prefer. Don’t know how long they will last, but I’ll be buying another pair. They are close enough to the function of the Merrells at a far better price, and I’ve been frustrated by Merrell’s size inconsistency. I can’t speak to runners, and I don’t know how durable they are yet, but I do recommend recommend these shoes to low-impact athletes. Update June 2022: I've beat these things to death and repurchased twice. They last about 8 months with very hard use. At one point, work was having me walk 22,000-25,000 steps per day. The seam by the toe where the rubber met the cloth top split, but the sole and shape lasted. I'm not complaining at all. I really beat these shoes up!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expectations met (bk32)
*by B***N on July 28, 2019*

I am very much into the minimalist/barefoot shoe style, so I've been transitioning all my footwear to things that are zero drop/thin soles/ample toe box. I own a couple pairs of Xero Prios that I use at work and for running. I've been trying out some other minimalist shoes from Amazon to see what else is out there at various price points. These TSLA bk30/32's are the most budget-friendly trail/running shoes on Amazon that I've found. I got them to use at work in healthcare, so not necessarily for running heavy miles. This review is 3 weeks after purchase. Sizing- I wear a 9.5 in the Xero Prios that I wear with and without socks. I saw reviews that stated the TSLA shoe ran long, and the recommendation was to size down from half sizes, so I got a 9. The length was spot on for me. The toe box is not as roomy as my Prios, but the upper is flexible so my toes don't feel cramped. The midfoot feel is comfortably snug. No heel slippage for me, and no hot spots, although I've only walked in them. Sole- The sole is thinner than the 5.5mm Prio, but I'm not sure exactly how thick it is. Lots of ground feel and flexibility. The sole wraps around the toe box a bit, which is a nice layer of protection from toe jamming. My guess is durability will be sufficient for what I'm using them for, walking in hospital hallways. I'm sure heavy use outdoors would have different results, but the material doesn't seem any less durable than your average outsole. Upper- seems like it's made from your basic synthetic mesh-like fabric materials, with a couple of small thin plastic overlays on the medial and lateral side of the toe area, I'm assuming for durability and protection. The tongue is thin, and sometimes slides over to the side, but that's a small inconvenience for me and not unusual in shoes. It's comfortable and breathable. Again, seems like your standard upper; I don't expect it to last forever or fall apart overnight either. Where the upper meets the sole- The idea is flexibility and thinness, and I've noticed some drawbacks for shoes with this design. In this particular pair I've found a spot on the medial side of my left shoe near where my big toe flexes that the upper is pulling away from the sole after 3 weeks of moderate use. My Xero Prios have gone thru a good deal of abuse from running and manual labor work, and they have shown similar wear and tear in those flex areas. I can live with it at this price point, and I have shoe glue if it gets worse. Conclusion: I would say it's a great value product, not really meant to last hundreds of miles of exercise, although I've read claims that it can. I enjoy wearing them; they are very lightweight, breathable, allow my feet their full range of motion, and cheap enough to replace without much internal debate. If you are interested in trying thin zero heel drop shoes but aren't ready to pay regular shoe price to experiment, these are a great starting point; their flexibility and thinness are on par with brands like Xero shoes, even if their overall quality and durability aren't.
