The crinkle sound is WONDERFUL. These shoes are amazing. Size 10 M. Perfect fit. No need for my Rx orthotics. They are light, comfortable and great for my walks. This is my favorite shoe. I have osteopenia and arthritis. These shoes have me feeling no pain when I do my daily walks. I personally don’t think they run small, and I have had issues with Merrell’s running small or large depending on the shoe/boot. So excited to see new colors! Just ordered a second pair.
Thank you for sharing your experience!
We did 2 hours of hiking in the driving, pouring rain in Scotland this week. My shoes stayed dry for more than half of it. And we’re totally dry and ready to wear the next morning - amazing!! They have be en fantastic waking shoes as well on our 3 week trip!
Thanks for sharing your awesome adventure!
I love my 3 pairs of Antora 2s. I've been waiting for Merrell to drop the sole that looks like it has paint splattered on the side and was so excited about these Antora 4s in black! They fit a tiny bit smaller than my Antora 2 size 8, but still okay. However, as others have mentioned, they make this strange and loud crinkly sound with every step! You can also kind of feel the crinkle. I can't imagine how Merrell let this go into production. So very disappointing. I returned.
We'd love the opportunity to look into this and help at 800-288-3124 or live chat at Merrell.com
I live in a very rural area and often walk my dog off-road through pastures. In the morning the grass is usually wet and my sneakers would get soaked. When I got these I wasn't sure because of the fabric on the outside but the first time I wore them the outside was soaked but my socks were bone dry. As is typical for Merrell they provide excellent support and are light weight. I did have to go up a half size for a perfect fit.
We're grateful for your fantastic feedback!
I love Merrell shoes because they are good to go right out of the box and these were no exception. I bought these specifically to take on a trip to Europe, due to the forecast of rainy conditions. Not only were they comfy and supportive for long days of walking, but they kept my feet dry during several big downpours! Would highly recommend.
Wore these shoes walking all over Europe.. sometimes 10 miles a day. Great shoes. 10/10 would definitely recommend
Thank you for your great review!
This shoes were a dream. So comfortable, beautiful colour! So happy until I got home away from a loud store and heard them. Why do they have to make that noise. Sounds like tissue paper moving every step I take. So sad I have to return these
Lightweight casual waterproof walking/running shoe. Great for light terrain and walking around town to keep your feet dry. Tread is not super aggressive but more substantial than most sneakers.
We're thrilled to know you had a great experience with us.
Best Walking, Light Trail, Running Shoe Waterproof TRUE TO SIZE 10 M. So comfortable and lightweight. No breaking in period was necessary.
We're grateful for your 5 star feedback!
