I started wearing Merrell shoes in the 90s and then gave them up for Skechers. After a while with those, I realized that I missed the support and comfort that I needed while walking. They were comfortable but more like wearing slippers. I have used these at work (I'm an RN) at home, walking for exercise. I tried mine on at a local store to double check the size and I ended up half size smaller than Skechers.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
Bought the Alverstone version with the "select dry" some time ago. Finally got to wear them. They don't even keep my feet dry in wet grass. What a disappointment these are!
Meryl always makes a well-made shoe. I found this shoe to be slightly wide in the toebox area as compared to the other Alverstone and Moab shoes that I own.
Thank you for the great rating!
They are comfortable and I’m ready for walking no matter what the weather is. I only wear Merrell shoes they have been my go to footwear for years
Thanks so much for your support!
Comfortable hiking boot. For my individual feet a stiffer sole works better but my orthotics helped
Your feedback is much appreciated!
More bulking looking then in picture. somewhat comfortable, but definite more on the stiff side
We value your feedback.
This is the third pair of these Merrill’s and wore beautifully throughout a European vacation.
Thanks for sharing Mary!
This is my second pair of Alverstones. Love them!! So comfy I put on lots of miles every year!
We love to hear this! Thank you.
A bit too wide but otherwise comfortable. Good arch support and shoe quality.
We appreciate your review. Thank you.
Fit great, true to size, good support, good looking shoe.
