Day one, they ripped. Not water proof even resistant.
I like these a lot: They have a nice wide/not too wide footprint. They have good ankle support. They have great traction. They are very comfortable. The waterproofing worked well (as it should because they are new). My only complaint is that padding on the ankles makes them pretty wide at the ankle and that tends to catch debris and funnel it down into the shoe... so they are not my pick for places where there is a lot of trail debris.... or perhaps I should have used gaiters. But they are perfect for wet, slippery, or dry trail conditions and casual wear. To me, the picture makes them look like they have green trim: They are shades of grey, not green--I was pleasantly surprised by that, and I think they are a good-looking pair of shoes.
Amazing shoes & design, lots of room in the toe BUT knocked down a star cuz they are pretty hard on the bottom without buying orthos/insterts. Kinda let down but after swapping, (and extra money 🙄) they are my new fav boots for hiking
We hiked all over Iceland with these, and they were 100% waterproof and tough enough for every trail! Unfortunately, they have a very hard knot where the tongue meets the side, so with thinner boot socks, it was quite painful.
this is a replacement for a pair of leather ones i had years ago.. I chose this colors because to a 79 year old they look good...
I’ve worn Merril for sometime. These are taking me to Ireland and I wanted good dependable footwear!
This show fits amazing and is completely comfortable and offers great support and atability
Great half boot with great style, love the colors, glad I left my color comfort zone.
Wore these while coaching at a rainy soccer tournament in MN. Feet stayed dry.
Light and comfortable hiking boots. Wish this model had more colors offerings
