These are now the most comfortable slides that I own. I actually own two pairs and will be buying more in the future. I have a bunion on one foot and the mesh upper gives allowing for a perfect fit (on both feet!). I purchased a wide width for my first pair but found those a bit loose even with socks. Unless you have really wide feet I would stick with the regular width as they give nicely.

Great shoes...comfortable right out of the box! I did buy 1/2 size smaller than normal size and it is perfect for my foot.

These shoes should be named 'spoilers'. They are very comfortable for inside or out as I have just purchased pair #4. I recently broke my foot and was worried about finding a good fitting shoe for work for support but these are great. My pair #4 is in the scarlet - I figure they should be able to see me coming. Plus Zappos is the greatest and fastest way to shop -- keep up the great work.

I like this show and have bought it several times in the past, but it seems this time to be a bigger shoe in all directions.

Encore Breeze 2 are my go to work shoes for the summer. I am in the medical field and stand all day. Less arch support than my winter go to shoes, Danskos, but the mesh is much cooler for warm weather. I wear these with casual skirts also, but these work better with pants. They are not as cute as some of my other Merrells but are acceptable. The medium fits my wide foot perfectly. I have 6 prs and am finally replacing my first pair that I bought 6 years ago, they don't wear out.

These are cute, comfortable and true to size. I take long walks in them every day. They offer good support and are relatively lightweight; not heavy on the foot.

I have very wide flat feet and tried on dozens of different shoes before buying these. They are wide and roomy in the front without looking too boxy. I wish the back was slightly higher but it is high enough your feet don't slip out like with clogs and low enough that there was no problem with getting heel blisters. I wore them all over my Italy trip and walked many miles every day in them. I find them just the right balance between lightweight and breathable, but enclosed enough to wear in rainy weather. The only thing for me was that I found the footbed was not molded exactly right for my foot down around the heel but I just pulled out the original insoles and replaced with some Dr. Scholls foam.

Great shoe. This is my 3rd pair. I stand on my feet 9 hours at my job and they feel great. Wonderful service from Zappos!

I have 6 pair of the Encore Breeze plus 9 other pairs of Merrells. They are not only the most comfortable but they look good with jeans as well as dress pants. They are the only brand I will wear anymore.

Heaven in a pair of shoes! These clogs were super comfy and fit perfectly when I slipped them on. I alternate between these and another pair of Merrell shoes that I got at Zappos! They are just the most comfortable shoes I own! Thanks!

I wear these every day. They have very good arch support. They look like they would be heavy,but they are very light on the foot. Very good traction. Also stay on the foot very well. Great color.

I love these shoes! I recently had to have custom orthotics made and they fit perfectly into these. They also offer some cushion to my step. They are my go-to shoe for our bi-yearly trip to Disney World...five days and many miles of walking the pavement and my feet felt great!

These are wonderful light weight all-purpose clogs. They have seen me through long walks and long days, a lot of housework and just hanging around. They look good too. This is my second pair. The first pair lasted 5 years.

I love this shoe! It holds my orthodics and my rather wide feet very comfortably.

Good walking shoe. I get really hot and hate wearing socks and tennis shoes in the summer. This Encore Breeze shoe by Merrell is perfect for my morning exercise. Am normally a 9.5 M to wide width with a high instep. Got the 10 and it's a tad big but comfortable. If you have narrow feet, I wouldn't recommend this one.

Ordered this Merrell shoe on 4/9/2012, received the shoes today 4/10/2012. Tried them on - size is perfect, width is perfect, and there is excellent arch support. The shoes look much better seeing them than in the picture. They are great!

I have foot issues and Merrells are the only shoes I can wear. They are easy on the feet and back. :)

I have been buying this shoe for a few years and am happy with them. This last pair was returned because I now find that I need something more enclosed since I am having trouble with walking. I still wear the ones I have and love the comfort they provide, but due to my health issues I will look into another shoe that Zappos has.

This is my second pair, and I love them. I've got a lot of foot problems and had a botched bunionectomy a couple of years ago. I need to put my Birkenstock inserts in ALL my shoes that they fit in, including these, but they're just perfect. FINALLY I have shoes I can walk in without any pain and a shoe I can actually take walks in. I have light green from last year in 10.5. This year's style is slightly different, and I had to return a pair and buy a 10. It fits great, and I love that they can go in the wash. I bought the dark tan, so I can wear them into fall. Great with or without socks. Merrell is the only shoe I can wear without pain.

The 8 1/2M was too long; the 8M was too narrow. So I tried an 8 Wide. It didn't look longer than the 8M, but when I put it on, there was a big gap at the heel.

I purchased these shoes for our trip to France where I knew I would be doing a lot of walking, but still wanted some semblance of style. These shoes fit the bill perfectly. My feet, legs and back remained happy for 11 straight days of walking and sight-seeing. That's no small feat! I highly recommend them.

I bought these shoes because I need a supportive and comfortable shoe to wear in the house. I found them very comfortable and provided the stability I need, but I had to take out the innersoles which were uncomfortable - not sure why. I ordered 6.5 (my usual size) and they fit perfectly.
