Customer Reviews Merrell Jungle Moc Nubuck Waterproof

If you have a wide foot, you might want to go a size up. I'm a fan of Jungle Mocs and always get them in a wide. When I firt tried these on, I thought they were tighter than regular Jungle Mocs. But I figured this was because the waterproof nubuck material was a bit stiffer than their standard suede and would take some break-in. But then I held them up to the suede Jungle Mocs I had bought just a few weeks earlier. Both are 10W. But the waterproof nubuck is noticeably and measurably shorter. I don't know why Merrell would do this-- unless the two models are made in different countries. I wanted to like these, but they're going back. If you like Jungle Mocs for their versatility and comfort, I strongly suggest you go up half a size if you buy these.

I think they have made the shoes cheaper.

I ordered these shoes and they look and feel beautiful. However when trying them on and walking on them on the carpet in the house, there is a bit of a hollow on the outside of the shoe under the arch, and the shoe tends to fall over a bit toward the arch side. Since my foots' arches aren't that strong to begin with, I don't think that's such a good thing. Concurrently with this order, I ordered a pair of Merrell ColdPack Ice+ Winter Shoes,a very similar shoe, and this second pair of shoes doesn't have the same problem as the Merrell Jungle Moc Nubuck Waterproof. So although the sole on the Jungle Moc looks very curvy and sexy when you look at it, it has that little flaw when walking, which for some individuals might eventually cause them an ankle eversion and sprain. The Jungle Moc Nubuck sure is gorgeous though, with its suede type brown leather. So I guess it's up to each individual to decide!

My husband wears 11w. He loves this shoe for the comfort, and ease of slipping on & off. Wears them daily for work. True to size & good quality
