I have been a nurse for 20 years so you can imagine the hours I spend on my feet. I have lived in tennis shoes my entire career. Well not anymore. Merrell shoes will be the only shoes on my feet. I can't tell you how well my back and feet feel after 12 hours in Merrell shoes. I only wish I had purchased these shoes 20 years ago. Thank you for making such a fine, comfortable product.

I can't believe I bought a pair of Merrell's but here's the news, these things are awesome! Fit great, super comfy, good support and easy on/off. They look great with jeans and with shorts and black socks you can look like a German tourist! I'm a Merrell convert.

I am a outside salesman and ride in the car all day. I have bad Achilles. These shoes are the most comfortable I have ever found. Not good for walking long distances but are perfect for short trips and if your feet are pain fell or swell.

This is my only dress shoe. I have one pair of brown and a pair of black. I think. . . not sure, but this is probably my fourth pair of brown, and third pair of black. Comfortable, good fit, and they look good. Just don't change it, Merrell.

Very easy on and off with comfort in walking and cooler shoe due to the low cut.

My husband is happy to find this shoe to replace a Clark's that is no longer available. He likes the versatility and comfort of a slip on shoe. The representative was very helpful on the phone.

I have the gust in brown leather and love the show. Will you make the the shoe in a tan color? I also have the encore bypass and the shoe runs a little large so I added an insole to get a proper fit. I am interested in the jungle moc in a size 13 for my next shoe. Does the shoe last run the same as the gust which I prefer or more like the encore bypass which runs a little large for me.

I have had a couple pair of these shoes, both with custom orthotics installed. I live in Canada and wear them everywhere year round; summer, winter, rain , snow, slush, etc. and they take it all in stride (no pun intended). A quick bit of shoe polish and they are as good as new again.

This is my second pair. I have completely worn out the first one. I use them at home in the winter. They provide good support when you have to be on your feet at the end of the day. It has always been a pleasure to slip into them and feel at home. I bought 8.5 men size the first time because I have a high arch. I ordered the same again. But I am sure women 11 would fit me just as well.

Shoes arrived promptly. Very comfortable shoes I've been wearing for several years. This time the back support was not as sturdy as my last pair but I am still very satisfied!

This is my second time buying Gusts and this time around I'm buying two pair, one in black and one in brown. Gusts are extremely comfortable, lightweight and just close fitting enough. They mold almost immediately to your feet. I recommend them highly to anyone who wants a pair of shoes for all sorts of casual occasions and who needs footwear they can slip on and off easily. I also recommend Zappos as a retailer that really goes out of its way to meet the need of its customers.

I wear them during all of my leisure time and in the garage working on my VW projects. On long drives I prefer them too. Great shoe for comfort and ease of use due to the half moc feature. I tell my friends and they have purchased too.

My husband loves these shoes. He only wears Merrell clogs. He started when he wanted shoes that did not press on his Achilles' tendon. He walks everywhere in these shoes. They stay on his feet and can span casual to somewhat dressy.

My wife and I have been & continue to be Zappo & Merrell fans! I own and love a black pair of Merrell Encore Gust that I got from Zappo about two years ago. I'm returning this pair because I had some serious knee surgeries over the past year & after wearing them indoors for 2 days I realized that my knee is not ready for "street shoes." After much more physical therapy I'll be back to buy another pair but 1/2 size smaller. Great company and great products. Thanks.

Zappos service is excellent...they expedited my exchanged from one day to the other. I have never had such a prompt service. I am very very pleased with their merchandise and their rapid service as well as customer service. I would recommend Zappos to all my friends and family.

I like these shoes because they are easy on, easy off. I use them as slippers around my house. Unlike slippers, they have hard soles and offer better support for my feet, as I wear them with orthotics. They are simply great as an alternative to soft sole slippers, which do not provide the support I require.

I have purchased a second pair of these comfortable easy on easy off shoes. I initially purchased size 11 and these were too big - typically I take an 11 in running shoes so you might want to consider 1/2 size down from what you have purchased in other shoes.

I found the shoe very comfortable and very well-made.
I am very satisfied with the product. I found the value and quality of the shoe to be excellent as was the delivery and terms of the sale. I would purchase another Merrill shoe in the future.
