When I received my boots I noticed a slight hitch in one of the zippers which had been a problem reported by some other reviewers. After a call to Zappos, within a week I had received a replacement pair with smooth zippers. The boots' debut was going out to dinner in downtown Flagstaff. They looked great with my jeans. A storm came in and I walked a few blocks in rain, felt toasty and the boots still looked out-of-the-box new. The next day I went for a hike in the forest, 32 degrees, some places with 5 inches of virgin snow with liners and wool socks. I never felt a hot-spot, my feet stayed warm, and they were very stable in sketchy terrain. I normally wear a size 7 1/2, ordered an 8 and they fit great. I really researched these before ordering and appreciate all the reviewers' comments, they were quite helpful.

These boots are warm, cute, and waterproof. But, as others have said too, they dug horribly into my ankles at first, literally causing chafing and blisters. I waited two weeks and tried again, this time adding pads to the heels to get my ankles to a higher place, and that worked and I got them broken in. They were perfect for about a month and now one zipper just broke. I'm pissed. Am writing to Merrill to see if they'll replace them, because I like and need the boots but not looking forward to breaking in another pair. They can do better for this price.

This was the perfect winter boot. Warm, light, and stylish. Kept me warm and dry through the Colorado snow.

Just moved to Chicago and needed a good winter boot. For comparisons sake, I ordered these and the Patagonia pair that look pretty similar. These were the clear winner and have been keeping my feet warm and dry. I have plantar fasciitis, and so far, these have given great support with zero foot pain! My only complaint is that I wish the boot shaft was a little wider. I have an above average calf size, and I don't think I'll be able to tuck pants into these. All in all though, great boot and worth the money.

This boot is awesome. As usual it was shipped faster than the speed of light. I tried them on and immediately worked in them all day. I work on films so am on my nerve-damaged feet for 12-16 hours a day. I love Merrells and am starting to wear them exclusively, but I fully expected to have to break these in as they are my first pair of Merrell boots. Was I wrong. I wore them for 15 hours on a cold muddy and rainy day, and they were fantastic! My feet stayed warm and dry, and the mud came right off. Plus I got millions of compliments as they are so stylish and cool looking. Buy them. You won't be sorry.

Fantastic on every level - warm, waterproof, lightweight and good looking. I'm very pleased with these boots! I do alot of walking my dog and these boots are comfortable and not heavy. I ordered 1/2 size larger to allow for a thick sock. Love these boots!
