Merrell  Hydro Next Gen Hiker Shoes - Women's

It’s was too small. But looked good, even though the picture make you think the sole is taller, they’re not. Front of the shoe is wide, that’s interesting for long walks, unfortunately I couldn’t try them on the trail because the fit was too just. Would recommend to buy half size bigger.

These just arrive and of all my numerous Merrell styles, these are the most comfortable and so very cute! I love them! There is stretch and space for my foot issues and the antler color is great. I like the toggle for the laces and the comfortable in sole. The fact that they appear to be able to be easily cleaned after hikes on muddy trails is what made me try them. I will buy another pair soon. Highly recommend. Note, I did order a 9 rather than my usual 8.5. I’m very happy I did that, they are a perfect fit. Love my new shoes. :)

Wanted to love them but sadly I don’t. Bought these for walking and around town use. First walk was a bit painful on the bridge of both feet. Next day I had bruises. Apparently the shoe is too tight where the tongue would be. Will not be using these for long walks again.

It's very lightweight and looks cool but it's just not the right shoes for me. The top section of the shoes feels like cardbox and I feel like my toes kept rubbing something hard although the other part of the shoes is comfy. Sadly had to return.

My experience with these shoes lasted the time it took me to shove a foot in and immediately take it out. I wear a 9.5 and these 9.5s were more like a 8.5/9. Described as a "hiker" shoe , I figured there would be more support but the upper is light and meshy. The shoes are very light and I prefer a heavier, stiffer shoe. I should have read how much they weigh before purchasing. I can't say how comfortable they are to walk in as they were just too small to test drive. I returned them.

I bought these to wear doing yard work which often results in wet shoes. The sole wraps high on the shoe and helps keep the shoe dry. With this being a hydro hiker, the fabric is not damaged when it gets wet and does dry quickly. I did replace the bright white laces with gray stretch laces because these laces make the shoe easier to slip on. As a senior citizen who uses a weed eater and leaf blower on over an acre of land, comfort and support is vital and this shoe delivers.

Pros: cute, lightweight, no-tie laces. Cons: laces are too long after tightening, which annoys. Read reviews suggesting sizing up so I got these in 9 instead of my usual 8.5. At first, they fit great. After walking in them, I realized my mistake in sizing up. Too late to return. Will have to use with thicker socks.

The sneakers fit fine, the back part rubs little on the ankle no blisters though; these are not laces to be tied they have a little slip you use to tighten them. They are spacious and lightweight l. I used them to go on two trails they hurt my toes, maybe it was because I used the ring socks. They are true to size

I tried this shoe twice but no dice. I usually wear an 8.5 in running shoes or shoes I’ll be active in. I would have needed a 9.5 for this shoe to fit comfortably. I recommend going a full size up to ensure enough room in the toe box. I’m sure I would have loved them had the size I needed been available.

These are very cute, love the antler color, but I'm not sure about the "rubber" bottom...I had a hip replacement 5 months ago so the grippy soles were part of why I purchased. But when I walk around the house I'm slipping around on hardwood floors. Are the soles actual rubber?
