Love these shoes! They are very comfortable and easy to slip on and off. And yet, they stay put on my feet while I\'m chasing after my toddler. I\'m tempted to purchase them in another color.

A great shoe to be worn with or without socks. Enough room to use your own orthotics. Very stable even if you have difficulties walking. I have purchased 3 pairs of different colors.

I picked up these shoes at a great little shoe store in the Portland, Oregon airport. Mine are light lime green with a blue strap. I have long, narrow feet with a high arch, plantar faciitis and neuropathy in both feet. They have worked out very well! The mesh keeps the air circulating around but the straps keep them from flopping all over the place. My normal size is a 9 and a half narrow but I had to buy an 8 and a half to compensate for the width and the fit is very comfortable. Orthotics work well inside. I\'m going to buy another pair in navy blue!

Bunions Beware -
I wanted a cute little shoe the I could throw on with yoga pants or jeans that were cute and comfortable. Typically I wear crocs but wanted something a little more upscale. These shoes are cute; however, the stitching on the large opening rubs right on my bunion. I wore them around the house most of the day and just couldn't keep them.

Most comfortable shoes ever! I may not ever wear any other shoes. These are so comfortable. I have a lot of pain on the outside of my foot and these have a lot of support there. They are cute enough to wear to work with pants. I am planning on wearing them for a week at Disney soon. Note that the floral pattern on the strap is a light blue. The stitching is white.

I recently injured my Achilles tendon (probably from wearing cheap shoes) and have to wear backless shoes now. I dreaded buying backless shoes as I hate clogs. I think clogs are the ugliest shoes ever, not to mention they slip right off my feet. But I was saved from clog purgatory by these adorable backless Merrell mary janes.They're comfortable, don't irritate my Achilles tendon, and they're cute (in other words, they don't look like duck feet). I'll probably buy them in another color.

These shoes are so comfy. I bought them a few weeks before a trip and ended up wearing them non-stop before we left! I get blisters easily on the back of my heels where shoes rub, but the hybrid slide/shoe feel of these keeps the shoes from rubbing on the back of my ankle, but feels more secure than a slide with no back. They\'re incredibly lightweight and I don\'t feel dorky wearing them like I would most "comfort" shoes.

Bought this shoe in August and dont want to wear anything else. Im on my feet all day and these are so comfortable that I never even think about them. My legs dont get tired, the shoes breathe, I can wear them with or without socks (the strap adjusts). Perfect. Now Im looking at the same shoe in wool for winter.

These have been my go to shoes for the past year. I have them in slate and they go with almost everything in my wardrobe as a stay at home mom. I love that I can slip them on quickly, but don\'t ever feel like I\'ll slide out of them when walking. They\'re super comfortable and I\'ve gotten a ton of compliments on them. I\'m also a vegan and appreciate that they are non-leather.

Great shoe! In fact so great that I have two pairs. Originally bought in black, I found the shoe so comfortable, light in weight, and usable in informal and semi-formal dress; that I bought this year\'s Merrell Encore MJ in beige!

I have narrow, flat feet! I have narrow, flat feet with no instep. For me, I usually wear an 8 and I needed a 7.5 in these. The arch support is ok, but there is definitely room for an orthotic underneath if needed. Super comfy and breathable. The upside for my feet is that the strap is adjustable velcro. And you can slide right into them even without undoing the strap.

These are very comfortable shoes. They required a bit of breaking in before they molded to my feet, but now they are good. They do not have quite the support for a long hike, but they are fine for walking a few miles, and they are cooler and more attractive than running shoes and easier to slip on and off. I wear an 11-12, and the fit in an 11 seems good, maybe the tiniest bit too short, but the strap adjusts the width and keeps my feet from sliding forward. I have worn them both with and without socks. They are the first non-leather shoes (which I prefer, because I\'m a vegetarian) I\'ve found that don\'t make my feet sweat.

These are probably the most comfortable AND supportive "sandal-type" shoes (meaning you can wear them without socks) I ever wore. \\r\\nI find myself choosing them all the time, and they go with a lot--jeans, dressy knit black pants, and skirts. Highly recommended!\\r\\n

Absolutely these are great shoes if you are looking for comfort. Stylish - not so much. I look like I\'m wearing children\'s shoes, and I really thought about sending them back because of that, but they are just too doggone comfortable and easy to slip into around the house and running errands.

I bought this shoe in the slate color to take with me on a trip where I knew I would be walking a great deal. Since I had sprained my ankle not long before, support was important to me. This shoe came through wonderfully. I have worn it more than any other shoe I own since I\'ve been home. I would recommend it to anyone. As a matter of fact, I am seriously considering getting a pair in a different color.

I found it fit true to size. Based on the reviews I ordered 6.5, but had to return it for my standard 7 since the back dug a bit into my heel at 6.5. Very comfy, and the beige is a nice silvery color.

This is the best shoe in the world! All of my other shoes, even the ones that are comfortable, cause problems if worn all day. These don't. I wear them wherever I can, and it's amazing how many times I've been stopped by strangers and asked about them. I end up telling them how great they are, where to get them, approximate price, etc. And I don't think I saw this mentioned anywhere else: do you know that they can be washed? It's probably not a good idea to wash them all the time, but they have held up well through about 3 washings: gentle cycle/cold water/air dry. The inner liner piece is getting a bit aged, but considering that I've worn them nearly every day since last spring, not bad! I just wish they came in some better colors, mainly dark colors. I just don't have a need for the light or that bright red. But I probably need to get another black pair to have on hand for the future, if these ever wear out. I would hate to be without them now! I need a lifetime supply. Bravo, Merrell! Bravo, Zappos!

These were a lifesaver when I traveled to London last year. I have plantar fasciitis and my pain was cured wearing Think! sandals. However, they weren't going to work in London, so I brought a new pair of these Merrells along. I was worried about walking all day on the hard, cobblestone streets of London, but they were fantastic! Although I generally like a higher heel, this was better and safer for this trip. They gave me no foot pain, stayed on my feet, and breathed very well. I treated them before the trip with soil repellent spray. Looks-wise, they're just okay, and Merrell might have a better-looking, similar style out there now, but that's all I had to choose from then (in a store; Zappos has lots more variety).
