I got these thongs to replace some I had worn out. So you know I am hooked. They are comfortable and stylish. Had not found them again in the store, but checked Zappos and found them!! I ordered at midnight one night and they were here by 10:00 am THE NEXT MORNING!!!! How can that happen??? I guess they were Zapped here! I'm sold!!

I adore them. Perfect fit--extremely comfortable, as in all day! I feel like I should order another pair to keep in reserve!

Very comfortable! Bought a white pair and the black. Went on a cruise and a family vacation in Mexico and wore the shoes without any problems.

I wanted a simple,white sandal. The footbed absorbs moisture and is easy to keep clean. No slipping around. Really happy that I didn't get blisters from the thong! Comfortable from the start.

I have purchased several pair of shoes from Zappos and have never been dissatisfied with the service or quality of merchandise. My most recent purchase came quickly and were just what I wanted. I did have to return one pair of shoes recently and the experience was excellent. Not a problem at all with the return. Customer service is number one at Zappos and I will continue to use them and recommend to all I speak with.

These sandals are great. The sole is very comfortable. They fit snugly enough that they don\'t feel like they\'re going to fall off any second like many thongs. I can walk all day in these.

I had rubbing problems with the part of the shoe above the toe part. I passed these along to my daughter who is having no trouble with it whatsoever. Other than that, the shoes are supportive, comfortable, and extremely cute. They make your foot look smaller. I prefer the Heather and the Sundew styles, but my daughter is very happy with this one.

Very comfortable and great support. I have trouble with a knee because of supination and these really help keep my knee stable. They look dressier than flip flops too I ordered two pairs. Love them!

Love these sandals - comfortable to wear the whole day through. I got 3 pair of Merrell sandals and love them all. I will never get a cheap pair of sandals again. Like walking on clouds! Very easy to clean also. Feels like I'm barefoot and fancy free.

This Merrell Gardena thong is the most comfortable sandal I have ever worn! I have several colors and always buy a new pair or 2 before summer ends, so I will have new pairs for spring. I have been wearing this style for over 7 years and even my old sandals stay comfortable for all day walking! It's hard to wear them out. Love them!

My Merrell Gardena thongs are both comfortable and attractive. Most importantly, Zappos made it so easy to purchase them. I am now a big fan of Zappos for my shoe purchases!

This is my second pair of Merrell\'s Thong Sandals and I just love them! I have had many foot surgeries and these sandals are not only extremely comfortable, but they actually make my permanently swollen feet look thin! Great support for a thong.

Love these shoes - very comfy and great for all day comfort. Wore them on my Myrtle Beach vacation and were great for shopping. My feet usually get very tired and sore, but not with these.

I purchased the Merrell Gardena Thong in white & plan to order the sandal in black as well. I am so pleased with the quality of this shoe! The fit is perfect almost eliminating the pain I have had for months following foot surgery. I ordered my shoes on Monday night & received them on Wednesday - just in time for my vacation. I love Zappos easy return policy & fast delivery. Thanks Zappos!

Just received this lovely little gem today and so comfy, I am not sure I will take them off during my entire trip that I have planned to NYC and New England states. Completely true to size, and looks cute with pants, shorts or a casual skirt. This one won't disappoint.

This is my third pair of these sandals (all different colors). I had purchased the first 2 pairs in previous years at stores, but wasn't finding anything I liked this year, so my son told me to try Zappos. They are fashionable, provide good support, and are very comfortable. I'll know where to go when I need another pair!

I love these shoes! I have been wearing Merrill sandals every summer for the last 10 or so years and loving them. I actually have this same Gardena style in pale blue and found it so comfortable and sturdy, when I was looking for a new white casual sandal this summer, I simply ordered the same style. If you take good care of your Merrell's, they will last longer than most other shoes. The fit is true to size (I'm an 11 but must go to 11-1/2 on shoes that are not true to size) and feels good on long walks. It's important to me with any thong type sandal, the toe thong strap is hardly noticeable. I recommend this comfortable and attractive Merrel sandal without reservation.

This is my third pair of these shoes. They are both comfortable and stylish. As they get older I work in the yard with them on, put them in the washer and let them air dry. I hope Merrell keeps making this style!

I have worn these sandals for years and then they stopped making them. I am so happy they have returned. They are comfortable, fit well and wear well too. I highly recommend these sandals.

These are the best sandals I've have ever worn. I have really bad feet (high arches, heel spurs, the plantar fasciitis, etc) and these are the only sandals I can wear without worrying about my feet hurting. This is my 4th pair and they last forever! Excellent quality. The service from Zappos was also excellent. I plan on ordering of my sandals from them.

Love this sandal! This is my 3rd and have it in 2 other colors. It's so comfortable, great for walking all day over all surfaces, and it looks great. I've worn it dry and wet, and it's wonderful for any environment. The taupe/citron green is a very nice neutral color combination, goes with almost everything. As usual, Zappos service is the greatest! Had the shoes on my feet the day after I ordered them. Awesome!
