Uncomfortable and Not The Same Shoe
I have purchased this shoe or a variation thereof over several years. I just received a new pair yesterday that was to have been the shoe of a 6 week European trip. It is being returned. This shoe has been changed and not for the better. The size 9 is shorter than the last pair. The toe box is wider. The back is higher and softer. The shoe is uncomfortable. I will not be ordering any more from Merrell as the consistency of a style is simply non-existent.
Construction changes
I’ve purchased the Encore several times in the past with great satisfaction. Now this women’s shoe has changed. The rim at the opening is not leather anymore and is loose, though the toe box fits. (The men’s equivalent still looks like leather online). Im disappointed.
Looks good. Poor quality
Looks good. And comfy in the beginning. Unstated falling apart after a few months of wearing.
One of the best for my lifestyle
I love these shoes, have several pairs and wear a lot! I wear them to go to town, out on the farm and even when I was doing 12 mile day hikes in the Scottish hills—not mountains, mind you but in the hills they were perfect. Wash my farm shoes as needed and get lots of wear from them. Take them traveling too as great for going through the airport and on the plane. I have very high arches and add an insert; even then these shoes fit exceptionally well and the top where the seam is does not put too much pressure on my foot/upper arch. This is wonderful as many shoes are not high enough and really irritate this part of my foot. So glad I found these shoes; have worn them for many years and as I just purchased 2 more pair-fully intend to continue to do so!!!
A really good buy
Comfortable as my old pair. I wear them all the time!
Perfect in so many ways!
I have been searching for a comfortable slipper that can be worn indoors or if necessary, outdoors too. I love being barefoot. After suffering through months of painful plantar fasciitis, I knew I could never go barefoot again on hard surface floors. My podiatrist recommended these as supportive, comfortable and soft insole, ventilated upper to keep my feet cool and comfortable, easy to put on and take off. I can these wear with or without socks. These are simply... perfect!
Not for me
I was excited to see a new generation of this style, which I've loved in the past but have had a hard time with over the last few years. I ordered a size 12M but they were too big/loose all around, even with socks. I wear 12Ms in other Merrells (Moabs and Siren Edge) so thought these would be a likely fit, but they're not. Size 11s are too small but going up to the 12s was a bigger jump than I expected for a difference of 1 size. I also found the arch support lacking but that could've been due to the poor fit. For what it's worth: Rock is a beautiful blue/grey color and I'm really sad that I have to return them.
Buy these on amazon for $64.
You can buy these on amazon for $57-$64.
Not like the older model - very disappointed
I have the encore breeze 4 which are my go to around the house warm weather shoes. The ivory color was getting dirty and since they are very hard to clean I bought a new pair of the encore breeze 5. Buyer beware - The new pair is not like the older version! These are cheaper in quality, narrower, smaller, uncomfortable, less support, hurt my arch, sole is hard not cushy, and it just doesn't hold my feet in the same way. These are a hard NO! I'm back to wearing my old version dirty as they are and unfortunately will not be buying these again. Merrell please stop changing your shoe quality for the worse!
Quality is not the same as in past years.
I've worn Merrells for years, in a very similar style and size as this recent purchase of the Women's Encore Breeze. However, this recent purchase was nothing like the shoes I've bought in the past. These were cheaper quality, slightly too large, and would slip up & down with every step. They do not look as nice as in the photos, but look like clown feet. Had to return them because they looked so ugly on my feet.
