I have a Wide foot And the seem inside shoe on the outside of the foot is too intrusive. The way the shoe was sewn together that seem rubs near my little toe on my left foot and it's just the most uncomfortable shoe in the world. I am in the medical field so I am standing on my feet 10 of the 12 hours of the shift and the shoe the first night I wore it was just unbearable I ordered two pair so I've got another pair to try and I will let you know how that one works out but this specific shoe is a nightmare

Unfortunately, these shoes didn't fit since they weren't available in wide. Also, the foot opening was tighter than I expected.

I have owned 4 pairs of these shoes. They last and are well made. Simple looking and have been my go to shoe for casual wear, long walks, and traveling. I have told people that they feel like gloves for my feet (extremely comfortable). When my last pair wore out, I went to buy a replacement pair - knowing I could not go wrong. Unfortunately Merrell made a change to the arch and is now too high and is uncomfortable/painful. I skipped buying a new pair of this beloved shoe. Sometimes it's better to leave well enough alone. That being said, I am pleading that Merrell to go back to the previous arch support.

I've had probably 20 pairs of these over the years, and this pair seems poorly made. Some of the stitching on the tongue is coming loose before I've even worn them. The soles feel like they've switch to a cheaper feeling material, and finally, I always get a 9-1/2 W and they alway fit perfect, but these are quite tight. Either they are mis-marked, or they have cheapened things up to the point that they are cutting them small. Very disappointed.

I purchased these shoes to handle the walking for my train commute between NJ and NYC. Overall the shoe fits to size and broke in properly. However the soles of the shoes are wearing out faster than expected. I figured I would be able to get at least a year with these shoes but apparently not.

I have bought many Merrell shoes over the years. But my recent purchases have been a disapointment. I have 4 new pair of the same shoe I have always purchased and they just are not the same shoe now. The sole is different they just feel like planks or ski boots. The original jungle mock shoe I lived in for 10 years. Now with the new sole they are using I have foot problems. It is really too bad and I tried to get use to them but I keep going back to my old ones that are completely worn out. They say change is good so for now I wear another brand. I hate to see an old stand-by fade away, but I have invested too much in the last 4 pairs, unhappy with Merrell's change.

I've owned plenty of Merrell shoe styles...they are consistently the most comfortable shoes...ever. That said, the soles (SUREGRIP) for the men's Nubucks are the worst design I've ever seen...In a fair world they'd come with their own vacuum cleaner as there is not one piece of sand, gravel, dirt, ice, snow or schmutz they will not pick up and deposit on your floor...if you DON'T take your shoes off indoors, avoid this model. They are also treacherous on snow & ice...Stick with the original sole design

I like the style of the shoe, but the fit is way too small. I bought these as airport shoes for an international trip, but I couldn't wear them for more than two hours. My other Merrells are the same size and fit fine. If I could return these I would. Be sure to try to walk around in these shoes for a while before you commit to them.

While I've bought many Merrells before this was my first experience with mail order and it wasn't positive. I got a dark and a light pair of jungle mocs and the dark pair just didn't feel comfortable. This was my fault, but I was so confident in the brand and the product that unwisely I didn't return the bad pair figuring I would just break them in. Within two weeks I was at the podiatrist due to calluses on the balls of both feet. Since then I replaced the Merrell insert with a pair of orange Superfeet and with limited use, I'm starting to break them in (instead of breaking my feet). So this was my first bad experience but it's partially my fault for not returning the bad pair. Maybe that's a guy thing!

I love these shoes and wear them every day. I am on my second pair and need to buy a third pair now. The soles wear out really quick. The last three years it seems I have to buy a new pair after a year. To me they seem they should last longer. The only reason I keep buying them is because I love the fit just disappointed in the longevity of the shoe.

These are my second pair of Jungle Moc bought in april of this year. Never had problem with them in the past, nor with my other Merrell shoes and I felt pretty comfortable when I tried them at the store. Somehow, after few tryouts, I felt pain in my right knee, like if it turned "loose" and unsupported.I had to stopped wearing them.

I swear by Merrell, I have 4 different sets. I buy them for friends and family as gifts. That being said, I was sadly disapointed with the quality of these Nubuck Jungle Mocs. The rubber toe guard peeled after 1 week, so I glued it back down with super glue. The other one did the same thing the next month, I fixed it the same way. 5 weeks later and the uppers of both shoes seperated from the lowers in multiple spots. At that point, I just bought a set of regular jungle mocs. I wear these as work shoes, and while I use them hard, my other sets of merrells (World Legend, Encore chill, moab ventilator, jungle moc)have all held up exceptionally well. I feel that this set was probably defective from production. But i won't risk it again.

The online purchase was easy. I purchased 11w and found them to be small - and made the exchange for 11 1/2 w. The shoes appear to be sturdy but are still tight fitting.

I have been wearing Jungle Mocs for years. I am sure I have bought 10 pairs. The last 2 pairs that I have bought squeak terribly. People give me funny looks as I walk by. They seem to be squeaking between the insole and the shoe. I have tried talcum powder and other things to silence them to no avail. I wrote Merrell and they said to try talcum powder or oil. I have replaced them with another brand.

I am getting very concerned about the soles of the Jungle Moc. Each year they seem to wear out faster. This year they wore through the first layer of the sole after 7 months. Last year they lasted about 9 months and the year before that 12 months. Obviously I enjoy their comfort, but enough is enough. I'm going to have to look for a replacement.I believe shortcuts or cheaper materials are being used. When I get home from work, I put on my Jungle Moc shoes every day and do nothing out of the ordinary other than walk our dogs around the block. What is happening?

PLEASE make the "orbit" again, both the width of the toe and the traction of the sole are unreplaceable. the "moc" is no good for me, and no other shoe maker as well.

Bought these shoes about a year ago and I cant wear them because they are irritating the top of my foot. I like Merrill shoes over all and have another pair of Jungle Mocs that are great, but for some reason these shoes hurt.

The Jungle Moc is a good looking shoe but, it's a heavy shoe and you definitely know your wearing it. It is not a quiet walking shoe either. Everyone around you can hear you coming from a distance. The moc also makes your feet very warm and uncomfortably so at times.

Having owned many Merrell shoes, especially Jungle Moc's I was surprised with the performance of these Jungle Moc's on wet surfaces. The "waffle" tread is not for wet, flat, surfaces (hard wood floors, outdoor decks that are wet). Also, this tread design seems to be less secure than the Jungle Moc design. I cannot, with confidence, wear these shoes in anything but "dry" conditions. I like the Nubuck look, but the performance of this shoe will keep in the closet unless perfect conditions exist. Tried to work through this fault, but in the NW USA, this is not a good comprimise. I've had them too long (past 30 days) to return, so I'll have to make them work on dry days only.

I now have had the shoes for 3 weeks now. They squeak. I thought I stepped in something sticky so I washed the bottoms. They still squeak when I walk. They are comfortable, too bad everyone can hear when I walk.

I liked these Jungle Mocs in size 11 so much that I just bought a second pair, also in size 11. Problem: the right one fits fine, but the left one is too short and narrow for my big toe. Unhappily, I have also found this problem of inconsistency in sizes of the same shoe and size in other shoes. I guess different pairs might even be made in different factories in various parts of the world. My advice: Never buy shoes online. ALWAYS try on the particular pair in a store and pay more to get a set that fits.

I purchased a pair of jungle moc about two months ago, and I wear these shoes for work, where I am constantly moving around. The only problem that I have had with these shoes is that the soles have not lasted. Now i have a couple other merrell shoes and they are woderful, but these ones sadly im not happy with.

I live in Seattle and we do get a little moisture. I have owned this sort of shoe in the past and loved them. I was not happy with the sole on these shoes. The waffle pattern did not do well on wet streets or steps. I slid a number of times and never had this problem with other brands. I was looking around on this site and realize that there are a number of sole designs and so I think the marketing should be more clear about the performance of the different soles. As far as overall fit and support I was happy with this shoe. I did return these shoes and will be looking for a different sole that has better traction on wet concrete and streets.
