Customer Reviews Merrell Siren Sport 2

These shoes are uncomfortable and have a ridge under the ball of the foot. They are also wider than the previous version of the shoes, which I wore well and with comfort.

I have had shoes like these forever, but this particular pair killed me. I had bruises on the side of both toes. That's the only reason I am trying to return them. Already got a replacement, because I was overseas and needed another pair.

I had a pair of these shoes that I bought about 4 years ago and that I just loved. I ordered a new pair this year, but they seem to have been cut slightly different. They rubbed my small toe on one side and the spot under my big toe on the other. They just seemed to rub and not fit as well as my previous pair which was 100% comfortable from day one. I am really disappointed because I have always liked how they looked, but I do not trust them to take on an upcoming trip and will have to search around for a different shoe. So if you have a pair that are a few years old, it seems these are cut differently and may not fit as well.

These have been my go-to walking shoes for many years, but the quality isn't there anymore due to cheaper materials that are cracking and pulling apart at the seams. The ones that I have from a few years ago that I kept for back up are in better shape than the ones I most recently bought. This is also true of the Merrell lined clog - wonder if they are cutting corners across the board.

I've worn Siren Sport for years - probably had 8 pairs. And I looked forward to wearing them forever. So when I needed new shoes, I got the Siren Sport II. Oh dear, the new version has been such a disappointment for me. I've tried 5 new pairs (my apologies to online sellers for all the returns). They just don't work for me any more. I find my foot pronating in them and my legs aching. It's a real shame that something was changed and now I have to go through the big search to find another shoe for my regular hikes.

I bought these sneakers because I was looking for a comfortable sneaker for walking as exercise...they are not that comfortable! I find my feet get very hot in them after I do my walk and I have to take them off as soon as I get home, also the ribbon that holds the lace in place is also stitched in the inside of the sneaker and rubs on my toes, so all in all I would not buy these again.

I had the Siren Sport in a previous version and couldn't wait to get this one since I love the colors and style. But unfortunately the areas where it looks like a strap from the laces to the side of the shoe kept rubbing weirdly on the inside. I was really bummed to return them.

I am a fan of Merrell shoes and had my eye on these for a while. They fit true to my regular size 9. Unfortunately, these shoes are very uncomfortable. As other reviewers have noted, there is a hard piece of material - something in the design or stitching that rubs on the small toe area. I had to send them back.

I am returning the shoes because of the discomfort from interior seaming near the big toe. The shoes looked great and felt good except for the seaming, very unfortunate for me. Will try another Merrell shoe. I loved the Merrell Continuum shoe, too bad they're not made anymore.

This shoe came up too high on my ankle and front of my foot. The foot bed was hard and uncomfortable. Great look. Sadly, I had to return it.

I really wanted to like this shoe but it's just not comfortable. I ordered my size, an 8, too small, reordered half size larger, too big. Not Merrell quality and comfort that I'm accustomed to.

I first bought this shoe in 2012 and wore it nearly every day for dog walking, errands, and on a trip to the Grand Canyon and Zion National Parks. I loved it because it was very comfortable, supportive and stylish. I wore it so much that I wore it out so I decided to order another pair exactly like it. Merrell must have changed their manufacturing process because the new pair is causing some friction and discomfort on my feet. The left shoe rubs up against the joint on my big toe and the right shoe rubs up against my pinkie toe. I cannot wear the shoes without wearing padded moleskin on the affected areas. I thought they would loosen up when I initially got them, but they haven't and after I had worn them it was too late to return them. Painful rubbing occurs no matter how much I loosen the laces.

Good support and accurate fit. However, they are very stiff and are rubbing various spots on my feet. I'm wearing them a lot trying to break them in but I've never had a pair of athletic shoes that had to be broken in like this. If I hadn't worn them outside, I'd return them.

Bought the same size and the same style as I had before. Does not fit well. Not comfortable.

I've worn Merrell Siren Sport for several years and they've always been good to my arthritic feet. This pair, however, is so stiff that my feet are sorer after wearing them.

I purchased these shoes two months ago, and I've been wearing them several times a week. I've found them mostly comfortable (a little bit of rubbing at the toe, where the seam for my socks is, but that seems to change with the socks that I wear). However, the eyelet for the lace just broke this weekend when I went to tie them. I'm very disappointed. I usually wear shoes for years before replacing them.

These shoes have been very uncomfortable. I thought they would get better over time, but after a month of daily wearing, they still bother my feet. The tongue flares out at the top and hurts the top of my foot. I will probably cut off the flare out to see if that helps. Also, the ankle cut out is off and hurst my ankles. I lace them very loosely, but then they slip. I wear them more like a slip on/off. I tried this model on at the store but they did not have the right size (I usually wear a 9-9½ but in these shoes I needed a 10) so I ordered online. I did not notice these pressure points in the store but after about half an hour of wearing them at home I started to feel the pressure points. I am still looking for comfortable shoes.

These are too tight across the fop of my foot yet slip off the heel. My feet really hurt along the bottom after a three mile hike. The sole is thick, but too rigid and hard. My feet ache! Tennis shoes are so much more comfortable to hike in than these.

I had the same problem as the other poster and they slipped off my feet, even when I tied the laces super tight. They also felt like they would be chilly in the cold and not waterproof or mud proof.

I ordered two different shoes in 10.5-Wide. I used to be 10W, but a year after pregnancy, my feet are still longer, so I needed to find new shoes. These shoes were very tight where your toes meet your foot. I could barely wiggle my toes in them at all (just the tips).

I have a pair of Merrell (Vibram) almost identical to this and loved them-wore them out - can't find that exact one anymore - thought I'd love these too, but they are cheaply made and are more like a floppy sneaker than a sturdy hiking shoe. So disappointed in Merrell for "selling out."

Merrell, congrats, you've now joined the ranks of other shoe brands that make a size 10.5 women's shoe and label it as a size 11. Been a long time fan and buyer of your hiking shoes...not anymore.

Purchased the Merrell Siren Sport 2 and the Merrell Moab Ventilator. Kept the Siren Sport 2 since they weren't as clunky and looked more stylish. Wore them for the first time today on a 4 mile hike. Started out pretty comfortable, but halfway in realized the shoe was rubbing a blister on the side of my pinky toe. I purposely wore good thick running socks so I'm very disappointed. Kind of wish I had purchased from Amazon as they would have taken back after I had worn. I will have to use moleskin the next time I wear. I feel like I wasted quite a bit of money on my first hiking shoe.

These are not the same as they used to be. This was my 3rd pair of Siren Sports and they have changed. Immediately my pinky toes started hurting. They are too narrow at the top, I guess? I have to return them. Bummer.

Please listen to others who have reviewed these shoes! I didn't and now I'm stuck with a horrible fitting left shoe at the toe area. I believed I could break them in but it seems impossible and now it's too late to return them. If you order them and the left shoe doesn't fit correctly - send them back while you still have your original packing material. They are defective! Such a shame because the right shoe is perfect and the style is so cute.
