    Very pleased. Slip on quickly and stay on. Are not slippery when worn inside or outside, wet or dry. Extra bonus - very comfortable on my often sensitive feet.

    I purchased these shoes in a large size, and was unsure how they would actually look or feel when I received them. These look great, and were quickly very comfortable to wear. They are a durable shoe with a good sole that works well in good weather or bad. I am very satisfied with them.

    This is a very comfortable shoe, a bit difficult to polish, but overall seems durable. I will see how it stands up to the test of time.

    Great shoe for easy on and easy off. Very comfortable and the heel cup is taller than other brands which keeps my heels from slipping out of the bed of the shoes. These were exactly what I was looking for.

    The Encore Reach are very comfortable after initial break-in. Soles have a lot of cushion. My wife bought them for me for casual wear, but I plan on wearing them to my office!

    Overall I really like this shoe. I also have a pair of Encore Gust's and they are very similar. The leather on the reach does not look quite as 'plastic' as the Gust. It took about an hour to break in (stretch the opening just a bit) and then they were very comfortable. Nice and light.

    The shoes were great. Just what I expected. I bought a pair for my brother and his son. They both love them. My brother usually needs extra width in a shoe. Merrell does not have ee sizes, but these shoes were wide enough. Also, who can beat ordering one day and getting them the next. I love Zappos.

    I purchased these for my boyfriend and he loves them. They're the only pair of shoes he wears now unless he's working out, has a business meeting, or there's over 20" of snow on the ground. They fit him well even with his thick wool socks.

    I ordered these shoes as a replacement for a pair of Merrells that he purchased two years ago. He teaches at a university and walks while he lectures. He has truly enjoyed his old Merrells and likes the new style that I purchased. Good shoes!

    I recently purchased my third pair of Merrell slip on shoes. Over the past 7 or so years these shoes have had a place in my wardrobe. They are the ultimate in convenience and comfort. Because these shoes have been such a friend to me over the years my latest pair of running shoes are Merrells also with great results so far.

    I purchased these for my 92 year old father-in-law. He has trouble bending over to fasten shoes but likes to dress well. He loves his new shoes. He can easily put them on and with the raised rim on the heel we don't worry about him slipping out of them accidently. He says they are extremely comfortable. He thinks he looks COOL!

    I wanted a slide that I wouldn't mind wearing out in a casual setting. This fit the bill. It has more grab on my feet than the Merrill World Verse and rides up a bit higher on my heel in the back. As a result, it holds my foot tighter but is still an easy-on shoe. Beware the size, I bought these and the World Verse and I had to get a 1/2 size larger than I normally wear in the Encore Reach.
