I bought these shoes for my husband. He only has about 4 pairs of shoes and these are the most used, by far, especially during the winter. In keeping with our Merrell experiences, these look great, are extremely comfortable, and go with everything.

Great shoes. My husband and I both wear Merrell shoes and we find them to be the most comfortable we have ever worn.

These are my favorite shoes. To my knowledge, this is the first time they've been offered in smooth leather. I've worn out 2 other pairs. They generally last 2 years or so and then I take the foot beds out of a pair of running shoes and insert them for use as "garden shoes".Comfortable, easy on and off, styling is a little less clunky that the previous version. I liked these so much I bought a second pair and stuck them on the shelf. Standard fit. I wear US men's 8.

A great shoe! Excellent style and fit. Superior comfort with no break-in. I work in a hospital, on a service that requires a lot of walking and standing. So, I put in quite a few miles on hard floors each day. I've had a similar pair of Merrell clogs, with a ventilator mesh for four years that finally wore out. No identical replacement was available so I "settled" for the leather model. Quite an upgrade. With the better materials and construction I'm looking forward to many more years with these. A special thanks to my Zappos rep, who went out of her way to find me a replacement, before I decided on this model!

Reviewer: Fred C from Westchester County, NY
Overall:5 stars   Comfort:5 stars   Look:5 stars

After straying from what made them so good, Merrill has come back to first principles: a well-made, comfortable, good-looking shoe. This slip-on fits like a glove and looks great with shorts, jeans, cords, and almost anything else. So accurately sized that I bought two pairs: one for summer wear and the other, a half size larger, for winter wear with socks.

I bought these as a gift for my husband. He has worn Merrell\'s for several years but wanted a pair to wear with black pants. He loves them for their comfort and support.

My husband loves these shoes. He walked around after work in his new shoes and said, 'Don't you like my new shoes?' He is a Merrell fan. I ordered online and they came to my front door without delay so we were certainly pleased with Zappos service.

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Any Merrell shoes

Overall:5 stars   Comfort:5 stars   Look:5 stars

This is one of those rare shoes, along with it predecessor Merrell's Primo slide, that is so good it is a legend in its own time! Really, not kidding! Great comfort in both fit and stride. This is the kind of shoe you wear until it literally almost falls off your feet because you know just about anything else won't be as good! The one thing I would like to see Merrell do is come out with wide as an option to all their styles!

I ordered these a few weeks ago for my husband for an upcoming trip to Europe where we'd be doing lots of walking. At first I could tell he didn't care too much for the style but once he tried them on he decided he'd keep and wear them. Fast forward 3 weeks later. Today he left for a business trip and guess which shoes also went with him...the Merrell clogs.

My son, a second year resident physician along with his supervising professor, recommended Merrells brand as "the best." I have found their praises to be true. I have arthritic knees and ankles, am a college physics professor, and am up and down 16 hours a day. My knees, calves, and feet have not felt this good in a long time. I ordered a men's size 11 (because I'm a women's 12 wide and they don't make them). The shoes have a comfortable amount of toe room and are quite supportive overall. I am about to order them in brown, since my black ones are well broken in.

I developed plantar fasciitis and couldn't find a comfortable shoe until I tried the Merrell clog. I was leaving for 4 weeks of traveling in Europe and was desperate. These shoes saved my vacation. They were the only shoes I wore the entire trip, and I walked everywhere. They are comfortable all day and dressy enough for dress up in the evening. They feel a little more roomy than I would like sometimes, but my feet tend to swell and shrink depending on how much time I'm on my feet. I would definitely endorse them for anyone having plantar fasciitis or foot pain.

These are a very versatile everyday clog, that are just as comfortable taking a quick jaunt through the woods as they are running down a city bus. I use them as my everyday shoe, and they're passable both at the office and at the bar afterwards. The only complaint I do have is that they scuff rather easily, and as they are essentially one giant strip of leather, that can be an issue. Overall they were worth it.

Most amazing shoes ever. Standing so long every day killed my feet. I couldn't stand any longer. These saved me.

These are the only shoes I have worn for over 6 years. These used to have a different name, but they are essentially the same shoe. As I wear one pair out, I start wearing a newer pair for dress occasions, and keep the older pair for kicking around the house. They last a couple years this way. They are comfortable beyond belief, look great and slip on and off easily. This is the perfect shoe.

I had about 3 pairs of Merrell clogs and I still have one of these for about 8 years!. Very comfortable shoes and the ones that I get lately look very nice the upper leather (by the way they were a gift for my brother in law). I have only one request: is it possible to bring back the taupe color in Primo style suede leather. Those were simply great! Thanks Merrell.

Super comfortable! So light, you may forget you are wearing shoes. Good to very good arch support. Very plain (mine are black) appearance allows use from the most casual to somewhat dressy.

THESE SHOES ABOVE HAVE LIKE SAVED MY LIFE. A FIGURE OF SPEECH. I have worn them through 4 spine operation recoveries. They are just unbelievable to me. I have 5 pair.

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Nothing compares. Merrell was the leader of this model.

You guys are amazing! I ordered some shoes late Sunday night, and Monday I received an email that you were upgrading my order from standard shipping to special priority processing, at no cost to me. This morning I received an email that the shoes are on their way. Your culture of doing more than the customer expects is what makes shopping at Zappos.com such an enjoyable experience. I am currently redesigning a customer service training program for 200 staff in a department at a large university, and Zappos.com will be one of my models. You do everything right. Thank you for being so great to do business with. Pat D.
