Merrell  Alpine Sneakers - Men's

I have used these as my primary sneakers for the past year. They've held up decently well, considering that I go hard on my shoes and didn't rotate between pairs to help extend their life. They're comfy even when standing all day, and breathe fairly well. My critique definitely lies in the material. You can see in my photos that there are tears in the fabric on the outer edge as well as significant wear in the heel cup on the inside of the shoe. These tears happened within 3 months despite taking care to tie my shoes snugly to prevent excessive rubbing. Despite the wear, I would probably purchase these shoes again if they made one change - the white footbed exterior gets really dirty and is impossible to clean due to the texture of the rubber. Unfortunately, most of their color offerings come with the white wrapping. If you do any sort of dirty work, be warned that the mud won't come off. I hope they offer more black soles in the future!

Wonderfully comfortable and versatile. I now own 4 pairs of Merrell shoes. 2 pairs of sneakers, 1 pair of hiking boots, and one pair of snow boots. Looks good, feels good, lasts long.

This is my 3rd pair of Alpines, I guess I am working on buying all the colors. By far my favorite sneakers ever.

I just got them today. So far, I love them. They really fit well and true to size (10.5 for me). They seem really well built, and the colors are fantastic. There’s one small glue spot, but hardly noticeable. They’re not quite as squishy soft in the sole as I’d expected, but still better than the Vans that I’ve been wearing for decades now. So far, so good.

I love these shoes! I am female but got the mens shoes anyway because I liked the color patterns better. Very comfy, I replaced the laces with bungee laces for a road trip for easy on/off, and broke ‘em in at Colorado National Monument, Arches, Canyonlands, and Rocky Mountain National Parks. I get “cool shoes” complements wherever I go!

First, I will say that I was having pain in one foot when walking/exercizing due to a bunion. I did some online research on which shoe is best for people with bunions. This shoe was identified. I can say I now walk with absolutely no pain. Love these shoes, and other Merrell shoes I have purchased in recent weeks. My only negative is the shoe laces are not the best. I walked on untied laces for a short distance and destroyed one of them (my fault, really -- always should stop and tie your shoes if they become untied). But my 2nd "chat" with Merrell resulted in the company willingly sending me a replacement pair of laces at no charge.

Took them hiking up Mt. Tammany then camped for 4 days. The only problem is the front sole piece that comes up to protect the toe pulled away and is lose

I got these in November of 2021 and they are not very tough. I would expect at least 6 months before they fell apart.

Very nice looking shoe!! I’ve got too many Merrell shoes, but these are an awesome addition to my collection!

Overall great shoe, terrific grip on rocks, a little too narrow for my feet in the toe box
