"After two contests that focused on popular fashion footwear, we decided to send our bloggers to the outdoors this time," says Lindsey Sutphin, OnlineShoes.com online search marketing manager. "A lucky voter will once again win a free pair of shoes."
Each blogger has been given a pair of minimalist running shoes from Merrell, also known as "Barefoot Shoes," including the Bare Access for men and the Pace Glove and the Lithe Glove for women. Bloggers provided photos and written summaries of their experiences wearing the shoes, and described how the Merrell lifestyle helped them "Get Outside." Minimalist shoes are known for being super lightweight, having a low-profile design and a level footbed. This encourages forward momentum and movement off the heel to a lower-impact mid-foot landing, thus providing a more natural stride and gait.
Blog readers and OnlineShoes.com visitors are invited to vote for their favorite Merrell-inspired story during the contest. Voters are entered for a chance to win a free pair of Merrell outdoor shoes, valued up to $110. The winning blogger who receives the most votes by the end of the contest will be awarded a $1,500 travel voucher from Intrepid Travel.
Featured lifestyle bloggers include Jeff of "detroitrunner.com" who sported the Bare Access shoe, Anna of "anewfoundtreasure.com" and Lauren of "threepinkdots.com" who both tried out the Pace Glove shoe, and Camille of "allthingslovelyblog.com" who wore the Lithe Glove Shoe. Bloggers were also outfitted with a variety of Merrell athletic wear to help them "Get Outside."
