bough this a week ago. its comfy but its big from my usual size, maybe i would suggest to go .5 below your usual size. i didnt return and had a new size coz i badly needed a new shoe for my work, it still is great, we’ll see how it goes for the long run as i am usually on my feet and always standing at work.
My wife loves these shoes. Lightweight trail hikers that dry really fast. We hiked all of the waterfalls of north Georgia last week and she had zero complaints about the shoes. I liked my trail running shoes and decided to buy her a pair. Best decision i could've made.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are funky and have fun colors. They go well with spring and summer outfits to add a pop of personality. They are extremely lightweight considering their tennis shoes and fit well. The only thing I would change about the (because I have flat feet) is a little more arch support. I like that they are not your typical tennis shoe and most people won’t have them, making you stand out instead of being just another person in the crowd.
Thank you for sharing your review with us.
I bought these for an upcoming trip to England to hike the Cleveland Way - I cannot even describe how happy I am with these shoes. They are lightweight and comfortable, they have been a godsend on my trip! I've hiked 8-15 miles each day with them and I do not have any blisters or sore feet. They are a little narrow, but it hasn't been too much of a problem. Very happy with these durable and lightweight shoes!
Thank you!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got this kind shoes from influence a week ago , the package is look 👀 good but I try to wear too much for me and then I gave this shoes for my mom , she was try, it’s perfect with her, she said very lightweight and comfortable ,breathable and work great for her walk and easy enjoy, thanks influences gave us ❤️😍.
Thanks for your great feedback!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The weight of the sneakers feels Like feather in the feet. Very comfortable to walk and fit perfectly i really like the cushion/support sole since I’m on the feet the most time of the day .Tru to size and the color are just perfect for the spring - summer time coming up . Very unique style
Thank you for sharing your review. We value your feedback.
I bought the shoes and can not wear them. They are too big even though it says true to size, the heel feels like I am walking on my ankle. I was looking so forward to the wide soles but they are not right. Waiting for a reply from Merrell to try and get this problem fixed.
Despite having severe plantar fasciitis, I am a committed walker - 14,000 steps a day. At any given time, I have 6-8 pairs of shoes and hiking boots that I rotate through, mostly HOKA, Merrell and some Oboz. I am generally walking on paved or packed dirt/gravel trails. I saw the Morphlite on sale, and decided to give them a try. OMG! For real - crazy good shoe. The first day I wore them all day long, my plantar fasciitis did not flare up at all. Great support and cushioning, without making your foot look like a barge (sorry, HOKA, I love you but hate the look of your shoes). I have since bought 4 more pair to make this shoe the "star" in my daily rotation.
Thanks for sharing! Being your favorite is our favorite!
Wore these on a six day trip out west to hike state parks in NV and UT, a short hike in the Grand Canyon, and several trails in Sedona. I brought my hiking boots as well, just in case, but didn't end up wearing them at all as these worked well (okay, maybe not in the Grand Canyon because it was muddy and icy) and they are way more comfortable than my hiking boots, which are not Merrell brand. I barely broke these in before leaving so I was nervous they'd rub my foot in some uncomfortable way but I had zero problems whatsoever. Love how they look in all our photos and didn't get all that dirty for all I put them through. Great value for the price - highly recommend!

I have been wearing these for a couple of weeks and have been very pleased with them. I wasn’t sure when I first put them on until I removed the insoles and inserted my orthotics. Since wearing them I have not been having a problem with my Piriformis muscle. I walk 10k or more 5 days a week on trails of rocks, roots and gravel access roads with lots of tripping hazards. Definitely more cushion and I find I’m not tripping as often and I find my pace has increased because of the smoother cushioned walk. My only concern is how long the upper material will wear as it is a stretchy fabric. Will definitely buy again.
