Merino Glide: The trainer that feels like a second skin
There are shoes you put on. And there are shoes you hardly want to take off. The Merino Glide belongs to the latter – because behind its clean, modern look lies a combination of materials and details you only truly appreciate when you wear it.
What makes a good trainer? For many, it’s the look. For others, it’s the comfort. The Merino Glide brings both together: a premium appearance that fits into any outfit, combined with an interior that truly welcomes your foot – even without socks.

The upper: LWG Gold-certified suede
Your first glance falls on the upper – and it’s worth it. The suede the Merino Glide is made from carries LWG Gold certification. That means it comes from a tannery operating to especially high environmental and social standards – from water treatment to chemical management. The result is a material that not only looks premium but also remains durable.
The interior: Merino wool directly against your foot
This is perhaps the most exciting detail of the Merino Glide: the supple Merino jersey lining. Merino wool is known for its exceptional softness – the fibres are so fine they’re barely perceptible on the skin. Instead of itching, they gently hug it.
That makes the Merino Glide a trainer you can comfortably wear barefoot. No rubbing, no unpleasant chafing – instead, all-day comfort.
There’s also the removable footbed with Merino wool: you can replace it with an orthopaedic insole at any time if you prefer individually tailored support. This way the shoe can be adapted to your personal needs.
The heel: Thought through down to the last detail
A frequently underrated element when buying trainers is the heel design. With the Merino Glide, particular care has been taken here.
The padded heel and softly cushioned collar prevent pressure points that often occur when breaking in new shoes. Getting into the shoe is pleasantly easy – no tugging, no pinching. Especially for people who value a secure yet gentle fit around the heel, this detail can make a noticeable difference.
Sole and laces: Functional down to the last detail
The Merino Glide’s cup sole completes the overall picture – literally and figuratively. The non-slip rubber tread ensures a relaxed rolling motion when standing and walking, and provides secure grip even on smoother surfaces.
The flat, tonally matched cotton laces blend harmoniously into the design while also supporting the shoe’s stability. Thanks to their material, they hardly slip – meaning your lacing stays put all day without needing to be re-tied.
A trainer with real character
The Merino Glide isn’t a trainer that pushes itself to the fore with flashy details. Its strengths lie elsewhere: in the interplay of premium materials, thoughtful construction and a level of comfort that only truly reveals itself when you put it on.
If you see trainers not just as a fashion accessory but as daily companions — and value material quality and foot wellbeing — you’ll find a reliable partner in the Merino Glide. With socks or barefoot, in the city or on your commute: this shoe adapts flexibly and always looks good.
