Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Eclipse

These are comfy right out of the box, casual but stylish. I have wide feet and these are comfortable, perhaps because they run maybe a quarter size large? Sometimes I have to go up a half size for a wider width but I ordered my normal 8.5 and they are fine.

Best shoes EVER, I love them and want to wear them every day!!

Liked the style, fit great, but I did put in another insole for my own custom fit and comfort.

Hurt my big toe. Overall, loved this shoe.

My new Merrells arrived this afternoon. I put them on right away and they were super comfortable from the start. These shoes are a roomy size 8, but I think a half size smaller would have been too snug. The fit works well for me because I wear thick socks due to super sensitive feet. A squeak in each shoe was remedied by shaking some baby powder under the insole. I have owned several pairs of Merrell shoes and they are the most comfortable shoes that I have found. Thank you Zappos for super fast service!

Love these shoes. I bought mine a year ago for a walking trip of Boston. My feet never hurt. They are the most comfortable casual shoe I have ever owned and are not bad looking.

Wanted some shoes to wear with jeans, that weren't sneakers, and not too dressy. I love them. I have wide feet with a high arch, and was concerned that they would be too narrow for me. But I wore them around the house for 10 minutes or so, and they felt okay. So the next day I wore them to the mall, all day, and all night, and never once had any complaints. In fact I kept thinking over and over, ahhh, these feel like bedroom slippers. If you are interested in these shoes, don't hesitate for a minute. They look and feel awesome! You won't go wrong!

This is a great shoe, but the 8 1\/2 is a little snug, and the 9 is too big. If only I could get an 8 3\/4 it would be a perfect fit. Has a great look to it and is well made.

These shoes were recommended to me by a friend, and she was so right! They are really comfortable. I wore them on a cruise, but they are just as great on land!

These are beautiful shoes and very comfortable and supportive, with the usual great Merrell feel. However, mine are a roomy size 8, but I think the 7 might be too snug. Thicker socks solve the problem. I received my shoes in only 3 days, and the shipping was free. Zappos has the fastest service of any other online seller that I have used. Thank you!

Merrell's work well for my footwear. This shoe is a nice pants shoe. Classy enough for the office, but still comfortable. They have a higher back than most clog type shoes, which could be an issue for some people.

Very comfortable shoe, good support. I have problems with my feet and these give me all day comfort and support! Only disadavantage is that I need a shoe horn to keep from breaking down the back of the shoe. Thinking about ordering a pair in brown!

I am used to wearing running shoes 24/7. Nothing else is comfortable to me to wear to work. Now I am able to look a lot nicer dressed at work and church. I can wear them all day and my feet don't hurt. Great shoes, not really the style I like but very comfortable.

I have very narrow, skinny, flat feet and I felt these shoes had excellent arch support and they were very comfortable. They were quite narrow (great for me, may not be so great for others) and are not the most fashionable shoes, but they look like they do in the photo (which I think is cuter than most of the shoes in this category). I usually wear an 8 or 8.5, so I ordered an 8.5 and they were still just a little bit too short, so I would recommend buying a 1/2 size up. My biggest complaint with this shoe (and the reason I ended up returning them) is that the top of the shoe is quite tall. I had about 1/2 between the top of my foot and the shoe, so the shoes would slide off my heel (even though they were snug lengthwise). Overall, I'd say this is a great, comfy shoe, just didn't work for my feet (unfortunately).

I had a pair of these for five years, but they wore out. I bought these as a replacement pair. After 5 wearings, the backs are still stiff and bothering my heels. I'm hoping that they will break in soon, because the older pair served me so well.

I really like the way they look, but unfortunately, they feel too big for the marked size. The heel keeps on slipping off; might as well get some mules!

Bummer. The are ugly. Face it. But I was buying them for comfort over style. Sadly, they not only run large, but are super wide at the heel, causing my heels to slip with each step. Great Zappos service, as always, but the shoes must go back.

After a long search for everyday shoes with a bit of detail to them, I chose these. They looked cute & comfortable. I received them and noticed marks on the right shoe and glue visible on the other. I called for an exchange pair. The second pair also had glue visible and one of the shoes looked worn/crushed. The fit was okay - a big bit in the heel which I figured would remedy itself with thicker socks. However, they squeaked when I walked in them. I returned both pairs. These didn't live up to Merrell standards. I have other Merrell products (boots & a coat) that seem to be much higher quality. Great Zappos service, but disappointing shoes.

They are lovely shoes and would be very comfortable but I bought them under the impression that they did not contain the glue to which I am allergic. I had a terrible reaction and cannot wear them. Very disappointed.

Skip it! These shoes make my knees hurt after half-a-day of wear. I am in my mid-thirties and I do not have any knee problems. I have never owned sneaker-type shoes that make my knees hurt. This is crazy. I can only imagine it is due to the Q form soles, which push in on the outsides of my feet. I have narrow feet - they fit fine in the shoes. But the outside of my foot does not need an arch under it. Thanks for nothing but pain this time, Merrell.

Love these shoes! This is my second pair. They are my work shoes, I'm an equestrian.

Love these shoes! Comfortable, fit perfectly, have great support for standing at work all day.

Comfort, style and quality all rolled into one fabulous shoe! My career has me out of the house on average 14 hours a day, most of which I spend on my feet. These shoes allow me to spend those hours in comfort. The leather is supple and soft, the support outstanding. They are so comfortable, like pillows enveloping my feet. Highly recommend!

I love this shoe, but it is a little narrow for me in the toe box as I have a bunion on one foot. Would love to try in a half size larger. I ordered down as so many of the reviews said they ran large. I so need a shoe like this and Danskos don't work for me as they are too wide in the heel.
