These are excellent walking/hiking shoes with good traction and waterproofing, and superb comfort. Important to me, they are extremely lightweight and "small", not huge, unwieldy clunkers like some other hiking shoes/boots. As a result they are much less likely to trip me up on roots, rocks, etc. I've been using them on "tramps" in NZ and Australia and think they are an excellent all around shoe for everything but real mountain terrain. The "brindle" is also a very attractive subtle color.

I bought a pair of these Merrell Siren Sport with the GORE-TEX two years ago and they were the best pair of shoes I have ever owned. It got me through two weeks of super rainy Scotland with totally dry feet. I am looking to buy another pair.

These shoes are awesome. I live in a wet climate, and have to use foot-baths all day long. My feet are always dry and they still look terrific.

Love the shoes...ordered a half size larger than normal as many reviews suggested and they were right. Great for outdoor walking in cold temps.

I love these shoes! I live in the Pacific Northwest and they are indeed waterproof. I don't slip on wet sidewalks either. I am usually a size 8 and tried the 8's first. I had to send them back for an 8. I'm very happy with my purchase.

I bought these, and they felt great the first time I wore them. Then I walked down hill and discovered they press my toes -- which means s-o-r-e toes. Also, the sole is too rigid for my foot, and after a couple of hours I have pain. I'm not sure what I could have done differently since they felt fine walking around inside -- but now I have expensive, good looking shoes that hurt.

A nice lightweight hiking shoe. They don't make you feel like you are carrying lead weights around on your feet. Very comfortable. I can wear them all day at work and my feet are still comfortable at the end of the day (I spend much of the day standing). I have not worn them in wet conditions yet, so I can't speak for that. I would definitely recommend these shoes. I did have to order a 1/2 size up.

Love the overall look and wear. The sole is molded to be a little stiff but I think that helps with stability and to fit your foot contours. Keeping them!

I have them on right now. They are comfortable and also a great outdoor shoe in winter since they are water proof. Anything Merrell has got to be good.

Love these Merrells with Gore-tex. Support my aging feet and keep them dry in snow and rain.

I have a wide foot and it's very hard for me to find shoes that fit well and shoes that don't hurt my feet. These fit great from the moment I put them on. I love these shoes!

Comfortable, sturdy, waterproof, light-weight hiking shoe; nice-looking too. I have a narrow instep and these fit well with a hiking or athletic sock. My measured shoe size is 8.5, but in these shoes 9.5 was the best fit (I find this true for sneakers too), so best to order a full size up. I've used these for trail hiking and for winter walking on city streets.

This is a great shoe, but it seems like they run narrow. Very comfortable, the firmness is great, love the Q-form tech. I'll be returning mine due to the narrowness, but I have to switch styles because there are no wide versions left in stock to try in my size. Just to give a frame of reference on the width issue, I have only had to purchase a wide shoe maybe 2 other times in my whole life.

I got these to replace an older pair I've had for years which have served me well for both hiking and general use. At first these seemed a little stiff around the ankle, but have softened up. I've been wearing them the last couple of days during all-day hospital visits, and they're also comfortable to stand in for long periods of time! and perfect for the long escape walks...I'm looking forward to taking them back into the woods.

I love these shoes! I normally have heel pain and my (orthopedic surgeon) husband suggested I try this brand. As long as I'm wearing the shoes, I'm without pain. They were a little narrow at first, but stretched in the toe area after a few weeks. Now they feel a little wide, but still wonderfully comfortable.
