I am very pleased with these sandals! Very comfortable, true to size and has a bit of a feminine touch. I have walked all day in these with no problem.

Merrell Agave -
I have small feet (size 4 ½) so these size 5's are a little big, but very comfortable right off. No breaking in needed. I'm so happy to have found Zappos for small feet! Hope to see more styles in size 4 1/2 C. Also very speedy shipping!

Very comfortable and attractive shoe. The straps are not very wide so the shoe has a more feminine look than most other similar styles. Length is true to size, width runs wide. The color is not as it appears in photo--it is more of a taupe color than brown--but I still like them as they are very neutral. These shoes have become my 'it' shoes for this summer so I have bought multiple colors!

Extremely comfortable. True to size, and I like the arch support, but even better - the style is super. Many people have admired these. They are very well made and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase.

This is a very comfortable sandal. I can wear it all day without my feet hurting. It also has a more feminine style than some of the other Merrells I’ve had, which seem to be a lot wider in the toe. These go along more with the natural contour of your foot. The only thing I don't like is the strap sticks out from the buckle in the front and after a few wears, seems to stick out, but it is ok. They are a great sandal!

Merrell Agave -
Absolutely the most comfortable sandal I've ever worn. No rubbing anywhere, true to size. These sandals are lightweight, have nice arch support, and are dressy enough to wear to work, yet casual to wear on the weekends.

Nice sandal -
I have been looking for a long time to find a casual sandal that wasn't a flip-flop or slide and that fit my very high instep (many sandals have unadjustable straps that are too tight) and narrow heels. My foot is measured as a 7B (but heels are much narrower) but I often go up in either size or width to accommodate my high arches/insteps; however, a size 7 in this sandal is perfect. Amazingly, even though the instep straps do not adjust they are actually long enough to reach over my high instep! Someone mentioned there is a gap in the straps to accommodate bunions; well, there is also a gap on the outside to accommodate my Tailor's bunion that is beginning to form. The forefoot is a little wide but not too wide for me, plenty of room for my toes to spread out without hanging off the sides of the sandal. Initially, I was concerned the sole wasn't right for my foot -- the footbed is very curved and contoured, and I could feel a ridge under the outside edge of my right foot as another reviewer mentioned. It almost feels like there is too much lateral arch support -- and I actually have a lateral arch (arch on the outside of your foot), I know many people don't have one! However, after wearing them for 2 days they are much more comfortable, so I think they are beginning to form to my foot. I also love the heel cup, it provides extra stability for my very narrow heels! There is not enough arch support for my super high arches, but very few shoes have enough arch support for me so that's no surprise.
My only complaint is the looks of this sandal -- it is definitely much more casual and not near as trendy as the sandals I would prefer to wear. I also don't like how there are multiple logos on the shoe (two "M" logos on the straps, and the word "Merrell" on the side of the sole). Unfortunately, my problem feet make it difficult to wear the kinds of cute shoes I would prefer! I ordered these in brown since I thought that color looked a little better than the others (I saw these in a store before ordering from Zappos)!

I love the look of this sandal, unfortunately, they are a little wide and don't run in the half size smaller that I would need. I would like to see if the Q technology would keep me from overpronating. Maybe another one of their styles wouldn't run as wide.

Merrell makes the most comfortable shoes on the planet. There's not a break in period with this brand of shoe. They are very stylish yet comfortable.

Comfortable style with pizzazz -
I have very difficult feet to fit. This sandal accommodates my wide foot very well. There is an open part which eases the strain on my bunion, the snugness can be altered with the strap, and the footbed cradles my foot nicely. The style pleases me also, simple yet interesting.

Comfort plus -
My number one goal when purchasing shoes is comfort. But in my heart, I desire a shoe that looks good. In these shoes I got both comfort and style and Zappos excellent delivery service. I call that comfort plus.

This is a comfortable, nice looking everyday sandal. I do wish they came in half sizes. I wear a 6 1/2. The 6 just fits and the 7 would have been too big. I can wear these most of the day, but when doing a lot of walking, the arch support isn't enough. For the most part, I really do like these sandals.

Comes only in full sizes; I usually need a 7.5, so I ordered an 8 and it was too big. I'd estimate this shoe is based more on a "C" width (or even a "D") than a "B", so if you're a half-size you may want to go down instead of up.
Cushioning is comfortable, plenty of straps to keep it in place. "Brown" is a dark coffee-brown.
Overall cute and comfortable, though I'm not sure if they're worth the list price to me since I live somewhere with a short sandal season :)

I bought these for my Mother to take on a trip with lots of walking. She liked them & thought they were comfortable. Although, they did rub the top of her right foot raw and she had to keep a bandage over the affected area.

These are very comfortable and seem to be pretty sturdy! They run a bit large, with feet that run a bit on the narrow side. I really have to snug up the back strap which then pushes my foot forward. Comfort rules, however, and I'm happy to keep them!

Overall these are good looking, well-made and comfortable shoes. The sizing seems true--although perhaps a bit loose across the top. In my initial wearings, the strap at the base of my big toe rubbed the skin--left shoe only, making a near blister. :-( After adding adhesive cushion to that area, no more problems. It appears the shoe 'adjusted' to my foot since I have removed the cushion without return of that problem. This is not my favorite Merrell but I do like it. I bought the shoe for the color and it is a nice dark brown--as shown in photo.

Very comfortable and stylish sandals. However, a bit too wide (loose) for my foot. Normally purchase a medium width.

My only real complaint is that my foot wants to slide forward in the shoe. Perhaps if the front straps were adjustable this could be fixed. The most impressive part of this order was that Zappos delivered it in less than 24 hours!

The shoes are comfortable. When they first came they smelled pretty bad but after they aired out, you can't smell it at all. My foot runs around in the shoe a bit. I would not say I have a narrow foot at all. Had to use the last hole to tighten them as much as I could. The length was perfect and the arch support is nice.

I have high arches and these shoes don't really do it properly for me. Otherwise, I would own a pair in every color. They are very comfortable! It is like going barefoot, but I don't have to worry about stepping on anything sharp and getting cut. They are great.

Fast service when ordering shoes. Merrell Agave is on the wide side without a wide width. The color was expected,feet don\'t get sweaty, and the arch is fair. As far as wearing them all day I don\'t think I could because of the support.

This sandal is stylish and comfortable. I have arch pain and need good support. These don\'t have enough support for really long walks but are good for short treks. For lots of walking I suggest Teva but they aren\'t as dressy as I sometimes need.

Very comfortable shoe!
I have these shoes. They are true to size and I didn't have a problem with them being wider like others have, and I don't have a wide foot. I do have a high arch and the straps on these don't hurt at all. In fact I wore them for the first time all day Sunday and had no problem at all. I do wish they had a more rounded toe. It seems like they couldn't decide between rounded or pointy so they kind of mixed them, rounded would have been cuter. Very, very comfy shoes though.

A little uncomfortable at first, but they broke in fine, maybe feels a little loose at times. I needed to put another hole in the strap to keep it snug around my ankle. I wanted a style that held the foot in the shoe securely. The strap doesn't anchor your foot in the shoe - it walks like a flip-flop allowing your heel to leave the shoe. I didn't return the shoe and I am only just satisfied, but know what to look for in the future.

Another winner from Merrell!!
I loved this shoe when I first saw it. Had a hard time deciding on what color! I bought it to compliment an outfit that I had bought for a trip. Knowing the comfort and quality of Merrell, I went right to their brand. As always Zappos was the perfect place to buy. Their service and shipping is the best on or off the net. After bad experiences elsewhere, I always shop Zappos and always will. Now, I need to say that I did have to return the shoes as my feet were too narrow for them. I think as I get older my feet are changing in width. But you might want to keep this in mind when ordering. Again, thank you Zappos for your perfect service!!
