They look great, but a little tight. I'm exchanging them for a half size larger.. so I'll be able to give a better review once I get the correct size.

This is a great shoe. I tried the size I usually wear in Merrell shoes but found them to be tight. I went a full size larger than I normally wear and they are fine. The break in was a bit rough for the first few days. I can walk in them all day without foot fatigue.

WAY WAY to small. Get at least a 1/2 size or larger than you normally get.

Normally wear an 11-1/2 but had to re-order size 12. Length now good but toe box a still a bit narrower than I like. Very comfortable sole.

My husband loves Merrell shoes but he couldn't get the right fit on these. Sadly, had to return and give up.

Solid shoe, but they do run small at the front of the shoe so if you have big toes get a .5 size bigger

The problem with these shoes is that they caused my normally neutral-to-average pronation to over pronate to the point of making me feel unstable just walking around my house. Would love them if they were neutral.

This seems a very good shoe...but I prefer a wider (squarer) toe box. There's plenty of room in the heel. I wear a 9M. Unlike my other Merrells, Clarks, and Columbias, this one tapers considerably, and switching to it after wearing mocs or, say, the Moab Ventilator, takes some getting used to. Maybe a half hour or so. If you're willing to put up with that, I recommend the shoe.

I've only had them for a week. The size is accurate, very comfortable and seem stable. This is my second pair of Merrells.

Super shoe, I brought them a few weeks ago. I them outside everyday in the rain and the dry conditions and they work great they breathe and they flex. I am a bush pilot in northern Ontario and they have excellent traction on the rocks and wood and wet ground and most important the floats of the airplane they have great sensitivity as well you can actually feel the ground they the think soft rubber sole.
thanks guys/girls for making a shoe that I can wear out for a beer and off to work. without having to compromise.

These shoes are very comfortable out of the box. The only complaints, I have had these 6 months and the soles are already getting flat on the heel and under the ball of my foot. Also the front of the sole is starting to separate from the leather on the right shoe. Performance wise they are great and everyone comments on the looks of them.

These are really nice looking shoes of what seems to be good quality construction. I'm sending mine back because although they'd be comfortable for the right shaped foot, these squeeze in too much for my broad toe spread. They seem a smidge smaller than most shoes I try in this size.

I've had a pair of these shoes for a little under a year now and love them. They are extremely comfortable and durable. The only con I can think of is that the grip on the sole of the shoe can become slippery when wet, especially on smooth floor surfaces such as tile (I have had quite a few close calls but have been able to catch myself from falling).

This shoe does run one full size small. It also is a bit narrow and rather heavy. With that said it is well constructed, and looks great with shorts, jeans or chinos.

I read many reviews on these shoes and I have to admit this is my first pair of Merrells. Always liked and wanted them just never stepped up to the plate. I do not write reviews usually but thought I would put my 2 cents in. I bought these about a month ago and I have to say they are very comfortable. Over all a very good shoe. I have only one complaint and I am sure this is one of those things that can happen. My right shoe now squeaks every time I take a step. It gets under my skin a bit and wish I could get a new pair but wasn't able to return them by the time it started. I still like the shoes and understand I may have gotten a bad one. Anyway do hesitate getting these you would be more than happy with them. They would get the 5th star if I didn't have the squeak.

My second pair of Merrells, the Intercept is a versatile, ruggedly built platform. Perhaps a tiny bit heavy, but not too much to prevent me wearing them virtually every day. At work with a pair of khakis, or bummin' around with a pair of jeans or cargo shorts, these will serve me well.

Well this is my second pair of Merrells and I'm hooked. I already have a pair of Moab Ventilators and love them. However with these I had to go up a half size for some odd reason. I wear these shoes every day and they are awesome shoes.
I'm not sure if it's my feet or if this is a flaw in the shoe, however my left shoe feels like it rubs my foot a little weird and it's a bit uncomfortable. It's wear the seam is and it's odd that it's not on my right shoe. I have thought about calling Merrell about it but haven't.

Very comfortable shoe, I have worn them everyday (almost) since I bought them. I have one complaint that should be considered if you plan on purchacing them. The soles wore out faster than any shoe I have ever owned. The uppers are still in great shape, but I will have to replace them prematurely.

This is my third pair of merrell shoes. They feel great and I am always getting compliments on their looks. I am disappointed that this pair are not holding up. They are around 5 months old and the leather on the side is tearing. The nylon mesh under the leather is OK so I will continue to wear them but I hoped they would last longer.

Great shoe. They seem to run small, I usually take a size 10.5 - 11, but had to go with a 12.

Bought a pair in 9.5, my normal size, and they were a little small, kept them and ordered a pair in 10, much better fit. I'd order half a size larger than you need. Now for the only complaint I have - the sole is not as durable as I would expect from Vibram. I've had my new pair about a month and the small round pieces on the heels are already almost flat. Other than that, very comfortable shoe, maybe a new sole design or a harder rubber compound could be used?

i just bought these shoes yesterday, and i have barely taken them off. they feel very good on my feet, and even if im standing for a long time, my feet never start to hurt, which when i have on regular tennis shoes, my feet always hurt. i am very happy with the buy, and i am anxious to see how long they will last me.

I got these for my husband. They are great--except they seem to run small, specifically short. He is usually a 10 1/2, but had to have an 11 in these shoes. Unfortunately, he didn't realize how uncomfortable they were until he had worn them outside twice, so we gave them to a friend (although not a friend who was a 10 1/2-- had to find a size 10 friend.
