Different styling than I was expecting. Perhaps i didnt read the description carefully. Nothing against the shoe itself. Simply didnt work for me.

I don't know why every time I buy Merrell shoes always struggle with the fit, bought 9.5 (which is my size) and was way too tight, order a 10 and I swear they didn't increase any measure in the shoe.

Perfect, except for the left shoe

4 years ago

Birthday present a month ago, requested without trying them on in a store and flat out love them, except the left shoe squeaks with every single step on hard surfaces. The shoe is wide enough in the toe box, slips on and off easily and the laces are purely decorative. Recommend thinner socks as thick ones can bunch up and get “wrinkles”. These would be 5 star without the squeak, and I’ve tried cleaning the soles with alcohol based cleaner 3 times to no avail. Must be something about the construction so I can only wear them if it’s noisy out, or on a trail - not for 3 miles a day with the dog in the neighborhood, which was what I got them for.

Comfortable and Supportive

5 years ago

I was looking for a pair of colorful athletic shoes to wear casually around the neighborhood and for running errands. These are perfect! Same as mentioned, I don't have a problem getting them on my feet. I have several pairs of Merrells and I'll admit that when I first put these on I was a little surprised by the fit due to the high arch support and slightly less cushioning than normal. Not bad - still very comfortable; just had to get used to the feel. I also love the wide toe box and stretchy upper. My feet are slightly wide and these fit great!

Mag 9 hugs my foot

4 years ago

I had to a loosen the laces to put them on but I love the comfort once they are on. I have only had a few weeks but they are great for my walks around the neighborhood. We have another pair of Merrells that are easier to get on and off. I love the comfort, quality and durability

Cute, comfy and supportive!

5 years ago

These shoes are comfy with a roomy toe box, proper arch support and overall great feeling! I had a neuroma removed from my foot about ten months ago and I still struggle to find shoes that are comfortable, supportive, and stylish. And I have tried a ton of shoes! I was excited to find these shoes and absolutely love them! For those that have commented about the shoes being hard to to put on, try loosening the shoe strings first. While they have a roomy toe box, they fit just right around the ankle and the insole is comfortable and supportive. And they are super cute!

Don’t love these.

3 years ago

I always wear this brand of shoes but this style is uncomfortable. I purchased online, thought maybe I needed to break them in. I have been wearing for a week and my feet are aching. I am disappointed but in the future, I will not buy this style Merrell. I should have stayed with the type I usually get.

secure fit

3 years ago

I really like these shoes but you have to wear socks that are tall enough in the back so the heal doesn't rub on your ankle. The toe box is very roomy and I love that you can just pull them on but they are very secure on your foot.

Love there look But!

5 years ago

I have owned and loved Merrell shoes and boots for a very long time. In my life time I have enjoyed being an active hiker and walker. Merrell has been my goto count on them for comfort, support, style and quality. If these sneakers had been my first pr of Merrell's there would't have been a second pr. First they require a shoe horn to get them. on. The first time I wore them for a walk I didn't get far before I had a blister on my heal. I have tried them three times with lots of bandaids and I'm done. I still stand by Merrell but these this pr.

Lightweight/comfortable, but hard to get on and squeeks!

4 years ago

I love Merrell, they are my go-to shoe for hiking and anything outdoors. I was excited for these because I like the look, they're extremely lightweight and great traction. When I first tried them on I wasn't really impressed to learn that in order to put the shoe on ,I had to completely undo all the laces to get my foot in the shoe. No tounge so it goes on like a very tight sock. Once my foot way finally in, the shoe is extremely comfortable. I decided to keep them even if it took a bit to get them on. I've worn them on some long walks and everything seemed great except my last walk they started squeeking in both shoes! Not sure if it will go away but have never had a shoe that did that. These are cute and lightweight, but would not purchase again.
