Extremely comfortable, lightweight and true to size. I also have Encore Chill which is great for winter. Merrell makes a great clog.

These are great shoes. I especially like the Encore Breeze because they are easy to slip into. They are comfortable, wear well. I have them in at least 6 colors. The winter version is nice too. I ordered a pair for my daughter and she loved them.

My daughter is a young teacher who spends most of each day on her feet. Her school shoes were just ordinary and she had fallen into the habit of using flipflops on weekends and around the house. She developed aches and general discomfort in her feet that simple rest did not address, so she was considering seeing a podiatrist. I read an article in Consumer Reports that gave Zappos a superior rating, so I sat down with my daughter and we looked for something suitable. What we found was the Merrell Encore Breeze. We ordered a pair and almost immediately her feet began to feel better. Months later this is still the case and therefore I feel that I can recommend this excellent shoe to anyone. To my untutored eye, they are also quite stylish.

I love this Merrell shoes. They are lighter and cooler than their leather counterparts which I also love in cooler weather. They give me the support I need, look neat and in their own way stylish. I highly recommend them!

I bought this shoes from REI about 3 years ago. They are great knocking around the house shoes. Very comfortable to wear for long periods of time if you insert Superfeet insoles. I got these through Zappos 'cause I love the color and I love Zappos.

This is the fourth pair of Merrell shoes I have bought in the same style. These shoes are great. I have trouble finding comfortable shoes which don't look like an old lady bought them. I have them in black mesh, as well as black and brown leather. My size normally ranges from a 7 to 7 and a half. I recommend taking these on the smaller size of your range.

I discovered Zappos 3 years ago. Never thought I'd be an online shopper. Zappos delivered what they promised on my very first order, but I couldn't have shopped for shoes online without the feedback from other women on how they rated the shoes. This is key. If you read many of the discriptions, likes and dislikes it works. I have purchased 10 differant pairs of shoes and I haven't had to send 1 pair back. I don't have easy feet to fit either, fallen arch, flat, wide and just down right hard to buy for, but I knew I could send them back easily. It's a win-win situation.

Merrell makes an excellent shoe, that wears forever. This is my fourth pair of Breeze.......the first ones lasted four years and I wear them a lot. Design-wise, I appreciate the fact that the sole is black, making them look less like tennis shoes and more like a regular street shoe. They have a flexible roominess, and I am able to wear them with my orthodic without a problem. My foot is on the wide side, and these shoes accommodate me well. As for comfort, the construction is such that with each step a roller effect massages your foot, eliminating fatigue. I love these shoes!

I am very happy with the Merrell Encore Breeze I purchased. They are extremely comfortable! I could wear them all day long. The have good support and very breathable fabric. I will probably purchase in another color as well.

I love these shoes; they have it all: good arch support, comfort and no need to bend over to tie them. I have them in every color so I can wear them every place except the Opera (don't quite go there). They are the perfect shoe, being a jogger, I appreciate the arch support and the coddling feeling they bring to my feet.

Great shoes! These are my second pair. Very very comfortable, fit right out of the box. I have wide feet, so it may run wider than other styles.

I couldn't ask for an easier way to shop. I have worn Merrell shoes for almost 20 years and always had to wait for my new pair when we make our yearly visit to Branson, MO for the outlet mall shopping. The prices are great and my shoes arrived fast. I will be back for more!

These are undoubtedly the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I work in retail and am on my feet all day. I had been having pain in my knees, calves and the arches of my feet that actually kept me awake at night. These shoes are so lightweight, I was amazed at how much support they provide. I purchased one pair thinking they would be just casual summer wear, but I have been wearing them to work every day and will be ordering more in every color available!

I love these shoes! They are SO comfortable! I can wear them around the house instead of slippers, which is great since I need the arch support for my pathetically overpronating feet. I can also wear them out shopping all day, to a restaurant, or walking the dogs, in total comfort. The mesh is cool on hot days. Also this is a fine driving shoe. The only aspect I would change is the shoe needs to be made in MORE COLORS, please!! My feet tend to be hot and I will wear these every day, except in the coldest time of winter, when I'll switch back to the Merrell Encore Chill. My husband has a pair also and wears them all the time. We bought both pairs from Zappos and got great service.

I have 3 new pairs of Merrell Breezes...my old pairs are on their last legs. These are so comfortable and not too warm as the weather heats up. Love, love, love Merrells!

I love these shoes. They were great from the first time out of the box...so comfortable. I only wear clogs, and these are the best I have found. They have good arch support and fit true to size. The silver/gray color is very attractive.

These are super comfortable shoes. I normally wear a size 8 but needed to go a half size bigger with this style of Merrell. They work well with or without socks. I have them in black as well.

Shoes are great for comfort and support--my 3rd pair. I wear them for everthing from house shoes to gardening and they last forever. I even scrubbed my oldest pair with soap and water and replaced insoles with ones I ordered from Merrell. I love Zappos. Great website, good products, and spectacular customer service--what's not to love about paid postage both ways? I will say I like my original Breeze better than the Encore version. The tops were unlined with fabric which made them cool and comfortable for summer. I wear one size or a ½ size smaller in Merrell, 37 instead of 38.

Love Merrell shoes, for my problem feet(I have a great deal of ball pain and stand on concrete floors a lot) they are wonderful. Zappos.com has a wonderful assortment of Merrell shoes to choose from. I would recommend the Encore Breeze for the softness of the sock liners and the way they help your back, knees and ankles.

I should have believed the other reviewers, I ordered my normal size and it was too big. Zappos immediately sent me 1/2 size smaller and they fit perfectly. They are extremely comfortable, I can wear them either barefoot or with a medium weight sock with no problem.

I am a baker and work long hours standing in a hot kitchen. I have been wearing these shoes for years and I absolutely love them! I order a new pair every summer along with a pair of SUPERFEET insoles. When the Merrells arrive, I take out the soles and insert the SUPERFEET and voila! I have happy feet. I know why this shoe is called Breeze. My feet stay cool and comfortable and have great support. I hope they never stop making these.

The Merrell Encore Breeze shoe is ideal for people who have to be on their feet all day. The shoe has eliminated my plantar fascititis. The ventilation is also fabulous. I have 5 pairs of these shoes in different colors.
