Great, except my 1 flaw (dud?)
1 year ago
I'll start with saying that I really love this shoe. It is light, comfortable, breathable, with the minimal break-in that you've come to expect from Merrell. I dailied these for about 4 months, except while at work due to toe cap requirements. That entailed a load of trail walking, moderate amount of train running, and every day activities. After about 4 months the mesh area above the toe has worn to a point where in some places the threads are getting almost bare. Maybe I'm half a size too large, I'm not sure, but they're still comfortable regardless of the fact that my toe is at risk of coming out. I would love to buy these again, but I'm skeptical and may go the Nova route.

Comfortable and light but...
1 year ago
These shoes are very comfortable and light. I use them for daily walking or hiking. The problem is that these aren't very sturdy. After only 3 weeks these are already tearing at the top. I am disappointed that a shoe made for trail running / hiking cannot last longer without showing such visible wear. For some reason it also is not allowing me to post the photos in my review.

The MTL Long Sky 2 trail runners have an odd, sewn-in, elasticized bootie that make them more difficult to put on than other hiking or running shoes. But, once they're on, they're super comfortable -- snug in the heel, roomy in the toe box, lightweight, ventilated and with grippy soles. I'm happy with them.
Yes , I recommend this product

Just did 12 mile trail run on some rugged and very muddy terrain. This shoe is so grippy! Looks cool too!
