Merrell  Agility Peak 5 GORE-TEX Trail-Running Shoes - Women's

Let-me-say… these shoes delivered. I got to break them in during a 6.5 mile trail run in some rain. The terrain for the trail was muddy, rocky and we had some stream crossings, one including a log. Really got to test the grip. In comparison to other trail runners. The shoes have full support of the heel, mid and in/outsole. Good grip and a roomy toe box. What I loved the most about them was, although they were not the Morphlite. Which are Merrells' shoes meant for both, trail and road running. The Agility were not uncomfortable when walking on pavement. I would recommend for trail runs where you might have a significant amount of road to walk on before getting back on dirt. I've used other brands of trail runners on pavement and they were hurting the bottom of my feet.

These sneakers were awesome!!! I never had a pair and when I went on my hiking tour of Park City, Jackson WY and then Montana, I couldn't believe the grip and waterproofness of these sneakers!! I will buy nothing but these from here on!!!!! Thank you Merrell for a great, mishap free vacation!

I have bunions and have had trouble finding trail shoes that I can wear comfortably for a lot of miles. Problem solved with these shoes. So comfortable!

I'm in love with these shoes! I've been a Salomon girl for years - the Speedcross GTX were always my go-to, mainly because Merrell's didn't fit how I wanted them to. I tried these Agility Peak GTX on and immediately my heart went 'pitter patter'...and I fell in love! I have narrow-ish feet and the adjustable laces helped make a perfect fit. Super comfortable, supportive and cushioned. The fit is true to size - I'm a 10 and the size 10 fit perfectly. Interestingly enough, other Merrell styles I tried in a 10 were too small. The Agility Peak GTX are also so stylish - I don't feel like I'm wearing a trail runner or hiker. Perfect shoe 10/10!!

The colors are fun and they are very comfortable. I wear them on long walks with my dog. Have not hiked off main roads with them but they feel supportive.

I personally do not find these very comfortable. I generally wear flatter shoes. I bought these for an upcoming trip where I will be trekking a portion of the Santiago de Compostela and wanted to make sure I had good footwear. I've been breaking them in for 2 - 3 weeks, just going for shorter 3 mile walks each day and they haven't gotten any more comfortable really. The base of the shoe just seems like it is too much. If you are used to a shoe that has a chunkier base than this shoe might be for you, but if you're a person with flat feet or wears flatter shoes during workouts or hiking, this shoe is probably uncomfortable for you.

I bought this shoe and it arrived over the weekend. Originally, I wanted something waterproof as I purchased the goretex since I will be wearing these commuting to work in the winter, and definitely needed a shoe with overall great cushioning as I am having foot pain. The shoes were amazing, I wore them all day over the weekend with no pain on the ball of my foot. So far I've worn them to commute to work twice, since I have a fairly long distance to travel by foot after the train to work, and they have been so comfortable. I haven't had a chance to try them in wet weather yet, but am looking forward to it. Got my regular sizing in Merrell, and even with a thicker sock, it's perfect.

I bought these Agilty Peak 5 trail in size 6.5 for my wife for Christmas and she got me a pair in men’s size 12. Our first pair of Merrells and now we are fans for life. They are like walking on air, comfy like slippers but feel sturdy. They add an inch to your height which we both like and they fit true to size.

First time with Merrell for hiking or running hybrid shoes. I am using these for light hikes for dog walking and running to keep up on the trails to stay active. The shoes run true to size or maybe a little smaller, and I find them a little bit narrow for me specifically. They are acting like stability shoes so no major foot roll. They hold up well on uneven terrain. They are robust uppers too and easily self clean when going from mud to a wet puddle. The Gortex uppers are very helpful in the rain for short distances. Good grip. Not for heavy duty hikes. Suitable for trail runs.

My Agility peak 4's have been a lifesaver- they accommodate my orthotic and helped me get moving again after toe surgery. No other Merrells have worked for me- usually due to ankle discomfort and tight toebox. I really wanted black for winter so was thrilled to see Agility peak 5 in black and waterproof. . But why oh why keep the name and dramatically change the shoe!! The heel now has a very course lining instead of smoothe- almost like a brillo pad so you have to wear thick socks. The toe box is now tighter. I was able to remove the insole and put in my own r own orthotic.
