I love Merrells, and they fit me so well. This shoe is a little odd, though. It's very comfortable in the sole, but the heel is a little too wide, and the width at the top is a little tight. I kept them, and I am making them work, but I wish the back and the front were inverted - looser in the front, and tighter in the back. As always, Zappos was great.

These shoes are cute, but they had to go back. I have another pair of Merrells in a size 8.5 that are somewhat roomy, so I ordered these in an 8. I couldn't even get my foot in them they were so small.

I love the look, but they were a bit loose in the heel, although I could live with that. After a couple days, they started squeaking. I could not handle that and sent them back.

These were comfortable, but they started to squeak as I would bend my foot walking. And after about 6 or 7 times wearing them, the squeak was so loud it was embarrassing. I stopped wearing them - then months later just put them into a bag of clothes to donate. Ironically this happened again with a different pair of Merrels I bought. But thankfully those are not as loud.

Looks good with slacks. For some reason mine are a tiny bit shorter than other Merrells with the same sole design. And they are a bit soft and loose. So, fine for work and standing, but not the best for walking. I am wearing them, but probably my least favorite Merrills so far.

Think I am in love!! So wanted these to work and they do. Tried regular size and found my big toe was rubbing the top of the shoe. Half size up and my feet swim in them. Adding my heel orthotic and wearing wool socks makes them perfect. Just hope I don't develop the squeaking noise some have described. Happy feet today!

Where I live, it's customary to leave outdoor shoes in the entryway. Because I need orthotic support, I prefer to wear designated "indoor" shoes rather than go shoeless or wear soft slippers in my own and my friends' homes. These are comfortable, supportive slip on shoes with a deep enough heel cup that my feet stay in them with the added thickness of orthotics. They would work well for in town walking, too, as they fit well, have cushioning and reasonable tread. They look as pictured, a great shoe with jeans or casual skirt. Recommended.

Love! I wear these all the time now. They are so comfortable and go nicely with jeans, pants, capri's. These are the perfect slip on's. They require very little thought and that is a requirement for shoes, in my opinion. They are cute but more than anything, they are comfortable.

Perfect for jeans, slacks, shorts and super duper comfortable. I love these shoes. True to size, they sort of feel like I'm walking on a cloud. They also provide good support, although that is not really an issue for me. If you are on the fence, buy them!

Merrell does it again. This is the "fanciest" Merrell I've ever had and its just as perfect and comfy as all the rest. They were super squeaky when I first put them on but the noises quickly subsided.

This was my first pair of Merrells and I am not disappointed. They are just very comfortable and casual shoes. They are great overall.

I ordered these shoes after I had picked up a few extra shifts and my feet and legs were tired and achy. I was wearing athletic running shoes for work. I have worn them since the day I got them and my feet and legs have not hurt since. I have a high instep and sometimes I can't wear this style. I use a shoe horn to get them on without breaking down the back especially on the left because that foot is a tad larger than my right. The toe box is roomy and comfortable They feel great.

This is the second pair of these shoes I have purchased (I got the brown ones 7 years ago). They are incredibly comfortable and quite durable. After borrowing them for a day, my aunt went straight out and bought a pair for herself - from Zappos, of course.

I am a nurse working in an operating room. These shoes are ok, not great for my job. Arch support is poor (am trying some orthotics but then the toe box is too small) and also the sole isn't great on wet surfaces. I will wear them for now, but am looking around for something else. Wouldn't recommend.

I got my shoes today and have them on, great arches and fit well. The color I have is called dune, they are brown, Monline they appear lighter and a bit more orange and they are brown, but they are comfortable and I'm going to keep them for the fit alone. So Zappos if you ever get the Norangy Duny color, send me a pair. Robin Ellis

These have been my favorite work shoes for the past 4 years, and am finally wearing them out and have to replace them. Tried a few different styles of Merrells and Keens, and ended up going with these again. Very comfortable, reasonably cute, and pretty good arch support even for high arches. And they hold up well. :)

Just got these. Comfortable out of the box and like the look, but they slip off at the heel. Don't know if they run large or are supposed to slip at the heel like some Danskos. Anyone know?

These shoes fit well right from the first wearing. Not even a little rubbing. If there were more colors, I'd buy another pair.

I love Merrell and have been looking for a work clog to replace another Merrell clog I had that was discontinued. These are really comfy. I am thinking of buying another pair.

Love them! So comfy and they look great too! In my opinion they run a little big, so consider ordering a smaller size if you're on the edge.

I really like this shoe. My physical therapist had recommened a clog but I had a hard time finding one that fit well. This shoe has lots of support and isn't as heavy as a clog. Not fancy, but comfortable and fine for day to day wear.

These are okay Merrells. They take Orthotics, which is what I needed them for (or you can use them without). They are comfortable, but a bit narrower than many Merrells. I have slender feet so it was ok. I do not know how they would be for anyone with wider feet.

I felt these were a great comfortable pair of shoes. There was an oddball defect on the inside of one shoe which is the only reason that caused me to return them. This was my first purchase with Zappos and I am incredibly pleased with how easy it was to return the shoes. I've already purchased another pair to give another go.

These are cute and sturdy as expected. I'm not quite used to the new 'Womens' specific support in this shoe though. I prefer a more barefoot style 'no support' in my shoes, but these have broken in nicely. We had an ice storm the first day I wore them and they performed very well. The type of rubber on this sole is fabulous for winter walking!
