Love these shoes! Like most Merrells, they are very comfy and have good support.

I love Merrell shoes with the zipper, but unfortunately, this pair I just ordered do not fit my feet. This pair has an angled toe and my middle toes do not fit in these shoes. I need a more oval or rounded toe. So I have to send them back.

I love these shoes! They are nicer than my athletic sneakers yet just as comfy! I wear these with my nicer lounging sweatsuits and with jeans. I highly recommend these!

Great shoe; great fit; great compliments and I'm not ordinarily a red shoe wearer.

I wore these for 10 days straight walking around Europe and never once did I complain about my feet hurting! Great shoes for running errands, running, walking the dog. Buy them, they're well worth the money plus Merrell has a great reputation for shoes.

These are comfortable shoes, that are great for walking. I took the black and deep tan on a trip recently, and I enjoyed wearing them very much.

The shoe is great but the tab on the back of the shoe gets caught on the bottom of your pants and so it does not lay flat against the shoe. Otherwise the shoe is quite comfortable.

I got these for my mom and she loves them. She has a hard time walking and these shoes are her favorites. Currently she has four pairs all different colors from the last couple of years.

The shoe is very comfortable and stylish I have bee buying them for a few years. I tend to buy an extra arch support for all my shoes to make them more comfortable.

I have bought variations of these Merrell shoes for years. They are extremely comfortable and I can wear them with my prescription orthotics. They are my "inside" shoes but you could wear them with any casual outfit.

Merrell hiking shoes are excellent, too.

I love this shoe for the elliptical & mat exercise. I have 4 pair of the earlier version Barrado but this is a better looking shoe with a thicker sole. The toe is angled which makes them look a little smaller on your foot & the zip front makes them so easy to put on. They are very lightweight, stretchy & breathable. If you snorkel, these feel very much like a water sock except with a zipper. Very comfortable! I wouldn't use these for running or cycling but they work great for low-impact. The fit is true to size.

These are best multipurpose outdoor shoes ever. Fit like a glove, comfortable, light, not bulky, low profile. I bought a pair years ago and saw these and said I have to have them and they will sit on my shelf until the others wear out!

I have very bad feet, these shoes are all I can wear. Recommended by my foot doctors. Also, very easy on and off.

I have had some trouble with Merrell zip shoes not having enough cushioning, but these are definitely an improvement! They were comfortable right out of the box. I will get other colors for sure!

I wanted to love these shoes. They are totally darling, very modern and sleek, and oh so comfy. But they run huge. I wear a 7.5M, and got a 7 -- and they were still a bit too long for my foot. I would have gone down a size, but the 7s were already way too narrow. My foot's not all that wide, but I do have a high arch. They barely zipped. (Like others, I found that the zipper is absurdly sticky, but the candle trick does help a lot.) But when I took out the shoe liner and replaced it with my slightly bulkier orthotic, they wouldn't zip up at all. And since I bought them to use with my orthotics, that was the dealbreaker. A 6.5W would have been exactly right, but they don't make these in wide widths. So these go back, and my search goes on... : ( Great style, Merrell. But can you please make wide widths? Thanks.

These are the best shoes ever! I wear navy blue uniforms to work and wanted a blue sneaker; these are so light-weight and cushy at the same time, hugging my foot like a slipper. I was a little concerned about a zipper in a shoe, but it works great! Excellent shoe - I plan to get another pair to put away in case the style gets changed!

Most comfortable shoe ever. Looks great with pants/jeans. Not so much with shorts.

Second pair that I am returning! The zipper does not consistently work smoothly. Sometimes it is a real struggle.

Finally! I was looking for a comfortable shoe in between a sneaker and a slide. This is it. I got them in black and wear them with anything from jeans to yoga pants. Also, they are perfect for travel because they are light and easy to slip on and off.

This shoe is very neat and comfortable. The only issue I have is with the zipper. I have tried every trick I know to get the zipper to work properly, so far no luck. I am hoping over time the zipper will glide up and down more easily. I have tried chapstick, WD40, and a pencil, they have not worked, I am still using pliers to pull the zippers up. Ugh!

This comfortable, lightweight shoe is first-cousin to a sneaker, but much less clunky, ideal for travel. The shoes were perfect right out of the box. This is the first shoe I've encountered with zippers instead of laces, and I'm concerned about the zippers' durability. So far, so good, but the zippers are really stiff at first. Zipping the shoes up once they're on is easy; unzipping them requires some effort. Still, I love the style and comfort, and I plan to purchase another color.

Love these shoes! I had been searching forever for a warmer black sporty looking slip-on that wasn't a tennis shoe. After trying numerous other versions that were too clunky (thank you Zappos, for free returns), I finally found these and couldn't be more pleased. They were immediately comfortable, even after a day on my feet walking and I look forward to taking them on my upcoming vacation!
