Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Chill Stitch

Comfort, not looks - This is a very comfortable shoe. It is not at all attractive, however. The one pictured must be very small, because my 5.5 look like boats. They are just stuffed with fur. It makes a comfortable, though expensive, slipper, but I wouldn't wear them when I want to look nice.

So comfy - I ordered these after reading the reviews and oh boy were they ever right! These shoes are so comfortable and I can even walk the dog in them. They are good for walking and running errands, etc. I went back to Zappos and ordered a running shoe from Merrell. Love it too.

Wonderful - Had a beige pair of these last year. Wore them all winter long. They fit great and are really warm. Wonderful shoes to wear all day doing your errands. Your feet never get tired. Great arch support. Couldn't wait to get them in black for this year. My beige ones are still as good as new.

Love these! Have been wearing these for a few days now. Even though they are fleece-lined, they aren't too hot for 60 degree early fall weather. Like the Jungle Moc, these have excellent arch support and a wide, sturdy sole that minimizes side to side movement (lateral instability is hard on my wobbly ankles). Years ago a physical therapist told me to wear Merrells to control my wiggly ankles and he was spot on! They are a little too big w/o socks (I am between a 7 1/2 and an 8, and ordered an 8) but with thin socks they fit perfectly. I bought these to wear around the house but the temptation is growing to wear them everywhere! I may have to order a second indoor-only pair! Nice job Merrell and I'm so glad Zappos finally carries this brand.

They feel as good as they look - As soon as I saw these when browsing on Zappos, I knew I would end up ordering them. They look good, and I love the color (I ordered the tan color). While it hasn't been cold enough to wear them outside yet, when trying them out at home they felt a bit snug, but not bad. The cushioned interior feels great.

Okay, the truth is I actually bought these in Chicago last December in a fit of need. But I just have to rave about them here! I absolutely could not believe how comfortable these shoes were. Best shoes I ever had. And mama loves her shoes! I couldn't wait for the spring version to come out. Big disappointment. It is the lining in these shoes that make the difference. I walked all over downtown in the snow/sleet, and even with the low back my feet stayed warm and dry! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them!

Very comfy - I was looking for something that had fur inside, as my toes always touch the top of the shoe and after walking around all day at school, my toes hurt. These shoes are great, but lack the arch support. I still wear them and like them though.

LOVE these - This is the most comfortable and warm clog I have ever put on my feet! I liked them so much, I ordered 3 colors. The look is great, they are going to be my favorite winter clogs.

Feels like the comfiest slippers ever! I hit it right on when ordering these...I'm very happy with my purchase. I was a little leary with the price, but glad I spent the money on them and got black fabric ones. I would consider the khaki/light or blue too in the future. They feel like high-end slippers, look nice, good arch support for my semi-flat feet, I wear a 10 and I'm middle of the road in width and these felt slightly tight at first, but stretch. Socks may be tight, but again they should stretch. The fleece is warm, almost makes my feet sweat and no socks needed to be honest. The fluffy sole comes out easily to accommodate orthotics if needed. I hope they hold up nicely, they have good traction and look like they make excellent winter clogs. A good alternative to my Dansko Professional Clogs. I may check out more Merrell stuff now. Impressed!

Mmmmm, good! My feet are always cold! I have had chemo twice, hence the cold feet. When I put these shoes on, I relax and feel comfortable. They are better than house slippers for me.

Great shoe. I was looking for a stylish Chuck Taylor alternate. This is it. Better look, better comfort, retro inspired, canvas, definitely made to last for years. I ordered the same size as I wear in Nikes: fit perfectly. Style is hot. Zappos, as always shipping was fast, arrived two days after I ordered. Highly recommend these.

Comfort and support - These are the best! Because of my bad arches I cannot go barefoot so I need a pair of shoes easy to just step into and out of, that will also support my feet. These fill the bill. They fit well, don't slip, and look nice. I bought them just for "house shoes" but now I wear them everywhere. I just ordered a pair of Encore Breeze for hot weather. I hope they are as good!

I ordered the "Bug Brown" (what a LOVELY name!) in size 10; I usually order a half size up for Uggs. I thought these WERE Uggs. When I saw the box, I realized my mistake. But oh, what a fortuitous mistake! These clogs make you feel as if you are like walking on clouds. The REAL sheepskin is so wonderful and encloses your entire foot. The sheepskin shoe bed is removable, which is a nice plus because then you can decide how much warmth you want, and it is easily washable. I walk a LOT, so finding a comfortable shoe is important. This style also was designed for women, and provides phenomenal support. I find the sizing was perfect, I have toe wiggle room and I like being able to avoid the sizing guesswork. I am now a Merrell fan!

Even though I have to send back, I love them. They fit true to size and are warm, just a little too flat for me. I need a higher heel.

These are super comfy. Perfect for winter in the northeast, but a few caveats: they make your feet super hot if you wear these indoors, and I mean really hot. Also, they are very ugly. Sorry, if style matters, these are well, like clunky orthopedics. They make my legs looks stubby, but they are really great for winter walking, running out to walk the dog, or to grocery store. If you have cold feet, buy these, very cozy.

I wear these to work in at the hospital. I love them! I look good and my feet feel good after a 10 hour shift.

Haven’t worn these yet, but the fit is consistent with other Merrell shoes I’ve previously worn. I bought these for NEXT winter to wear when the temps here hit 0 degrees F.! The only thing I’d change is the color of the interior fleece, from off-white to dark brown--both to match the shoe and hide the dirt!

These attractive clogs are filled with warm cushy lining that feels good and keeps my feet warm. Even when it is pretty cold out, I can wear them around town and my feet are comfortable. The bottoms are good on the snow and ice. They are fairly light weight which is nice. They feel a bit stiff especially at first, but do bend better when you walk after wearing them for a while. These are just so convenient in the bad weather when you shoes get all wet and icky, they are simple to slide on and off when you are in and out of the house a lot. I really like them.

These shoes are very comfortable and sturdy. I am in the big and fat stage of pregnancy and was looking for something I could wear without socks and could slip on without bending down and would be warm enough for Seattle rainy weather. I ordered a few brands/styles and found that other slip-ons tended to have soft backs that felt like they would end up just getting mushed down. These are more like cozy clogs that hold their shape. I walk miles to town and back each day and they are still comfortable. The size seems right to me, but I’m wearing them without socks so you might go up a 1/2 size if you wear thick socks.

Really comfortable and warm shoes. I wanted a clog that I could throw on in the winter, and these are perfect for that.

These shoes are very comfortable, and warm, maybe even too warm. I was hoping to get the comfort of my shearling slippers in a shoe I could wear outdoors, but the shearling material isn’t quite the same. The bug brown color is a bit lighter in person than it was on my screen and it makes the shoes look more casual, and they don’t always quite "go" with other browns. They seem to be well made and have a solid feel. Overall I’m happy with them and think they’re going to be great casual shoes for cold weather.

These shoes are very comfortable and very warm. I've owned several pair of Merrells in the past and they've always combined comfort and style. These clogs lean much more toward the comfort side of the equation. I love how they feel, but they look boxy. I'm wearing them around the house and other occasions when I really don't care how I look.

They are extremely warm and comfortable. They do, however, make my foot look huge! I wear a 10, but sometimes in Merrells I need a larger size. Not the case with these, I ordered a 10.5 and they feel on the big size. I wear them around the house like a slipper with more support.

I love these shoes so much! I have a size 7.5, wide foot and the size 8 fit me quite nicely. I wouldn't think these were a good shoe for somebody with a very narrow foot. The insole was a problem. It would get moved around and squished up under my foot. I just replaced it with an off the shelf, run of the mill insole and now it's all good.

Shoes are very pretty. I love the purple color. However, they are narrow, in my opinion. I think they should be somewhat roomier.
