Thanks to Jason Robillard of Barefoot Running University, we get a sneak peek of Merrell's Spring 2012 lineup.

It looks to me like Merrell has listened yet again to the people who run in their shoes and have implemented a road specific, flat soled , zero drop shoe into the Barefoot line with the Road Glove for men (top) and the Dash Glove for women (bottom). ***All images via Barefoot Running University (if you couldn't already figure that out)***

The shoe that really got me excited is the Rapid Glove (below), which is part of Merrell's Bare Water series and is technically a water shoe. I agree fully with Jason that this looks like an excellent shoe to run in.

I can't wait to see more on the Merrell Barefoot Spring 2012 lineup and hopefully we can get our hands on some to test and review!
