Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Gust

This is my third pair of these shoes--two black, one brown. They are not weightless, even though it may seem so. My first pair wore out after just three years of almost every day wear. I got black this time, and I polish them so they can serve for everyday wear or to look nice. But this pair of black didn't match very well. The right shoe is very smooth leather, but the left shoe has a texture that seems to include tiny wrinkles. It's as though somebody just pulled two black 12's out of a big bin and didn't bother to see if they matched. Even so, when this new pair I just got wears out, I'll be hoping they still carry the exact same thing.

I've had Merrell shoes before, otherwise I wouldn't have known to get an 8 (my usual shoe size is 8.5 or 9). It fits like a glove which is just right. Best thing about them: My wife thinks I look great in them!

Just love this shoe. My wife has the women's version and raved about them so I thought I would give them a try. True to size and comfortable.

In the name of less is more, quite simply, this shoe is the most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever worn! I'm on my third pair and hope that Merrell will continue to make this line of shoes.

EXCELLENT. The most comforable shoes I've ever worn.

I have now purchased 5 pairs of these shoes. I live on a horse farm. My last pair are now farm shoes and I wait them in the barn. The are indestructible. They are so well made and I just live the look. My daughter is a veterinarian in Huntsville Alabama . She loves them as well. She just purchased a new pair of Merrill's last month. I just love the look of the smooth leather. Easy on and easy off! Look good with jeans and I can wear them with a brown suit. I will continue to enjoy them!

Really, really like these. Very good just the way they are: don't try to "improve"! Will be ordering more in case you decide to discontinue - like all other good things!

While not wonderfully attractive the Encore Gust delivers great comfort and durability. I have foot problems and have been medically advised to only wear clogs, specifically Merrill. These shoes have been extremely helpful to my daily comfort and mobility.

This is the 2nd pair of these I have purchased for my husband, after he relayed, "I don't think I would wear those"! He has the shoes in black as well. I do order a half size smaller than he normally wears.

Merrel: Where have you been all my life? Going out tomorrow to get another pair. I have severe tendinitis and a haglunds deformity (pump bump), so a low back is key to comfort! These are AMAZING. Thank you!

Love these shoes! Very comfortable Would recommend to anyone.

Attention Women: This shoe fits like the original Merrell Women's clogs used to fit -- nice roomy toe box. Accommodates orthotics much better than current women's version. The smallest men's size in this style is a "7", which translates to what used to be an 8/12 women's. Too bad Merrell had to go and ruin a good thing in the women's design.

These are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. The feel like wearing slippers, but really comfortable slippers. They run a tad wide so take that into account.

size, comfort, looks all perfect
