I wear a 12 N or M depending on the shoe brand. These size 11M were great! I've worn Merrell size 11 before and found them to be good except for the slip on shoe, which felt too short. These have great support and cushioning throughout the whole length of the shoe.

I have an older style Merrell slip on so I thought I'd love this replacement, but sadly, Merrell changed the design. The back used to come up 1.5 inches from the sole. This new style only comes up approximately 1 inch from the sole. What a difference that 1/2 inch makes! Now the shoe won't stay on my foot without me curling up my toes and walking slower to keep it on. I used to be able to run in my old shoes and kick a soccer ball for my dog. I had to return them because the back is too low and the shoe wouldn't even stay on securely when I walked. Too bad because Merrell usually is one of the most comfortable fitting shoes for me! Bummer.

I have owned these for years. A quick fix to the squeak - pull up the footbed liner, and put in a piece of sticky sided felt at the heel! Had to do this on two pairs...haven't had a squeak in years! PS...I LOVE Zappos!

The best buy I've made in quite a few years. I spend no less than 9 hours on my feet each day. I've tried shoes from Crocs to the most expensive Dansko out there...none of them were comfortable from day one, except these shoes. I love these shoes. I have 2 pair of Merrell sneakers and thought they were the bomb, until I bought these. They arrived in a very short period of time and I've enjoyed them since day one.
I'd also recommend: New balance

I am a nurse and my job requires a lot of standing/walking. I have wide feet and need good arch support. This shoe provides all of this. I love the shoe! It is light and provides the support and guidance for my foot fall. I finish my day with no foot pain, no foot pain. Well worth the money and I am considering purchasing more of the Merrell q-form line.
