O.M.G. where have you been all my life ? I absolutely love, love, love these shoes. I'm over 50 and have been dealing with minor foot pain for some time now. It's been a challenge to say the least in finding comfortable shoes that fit my lifestyle. These are light, flexible, and breathable yet tough and durable with Vibram soles. Perfect for summer - camping, floating, hiking and every day wear as well. I am very pleased.

I bought these for my husband. It's really hard to find larger size shoes he's a size 15-15.5. Purchased these in size 15. They fit him great, very comfortable and breathe well. So far no complaints and he's gotten lots of compliments on them! They are a good looking shoe. Would definitely recommend them.

Merrell has always been a favorite brand of mine, but lately I have been looking for a truly lightweight hiking shoe. I was pleasantly surprised to find the All Out Blaze Aero Sport. Extremely light, good support and fit was true to size for me. Yes, the toe box is big, but I prefer that to a tight fit up front. It's my new all-around outdoor shoe! The best recommendation I can make is that at the end of a long day, they still feel great and I am in no rush to take them off.

These shoes are very light, breathe well, have good traction, and provide the necessary support/comfort for long day hikes. I've worn them with and without socks and the comfort is better with thin hiking socks since the toe-box area is hard material whereas the material above the foot is a soft mesh material. Bought the same shoes for myself and my son and we both love them.

I love the fit of most of my Merrell shoes. This is a great light weight and breathable summer shoe. Just what I wanted.
The fit in the toes is very loose. I originally did not like that but I am comfortable with it now.

This shoe exceeded my expectation. They were comfortable the very first time I slipped them on. Merrell knocked it out of the park with this model. Will purchase another pair.

These are great cross-trainers at a very competitive price. They're made to fit well and are ventilated. The soles are well-designed.
They were a bit late being delivered, but that's not a problem. They're very light and comfortable in hot weather. I like them.

I work on the ramp for a major airline in Texas and im constantly on my feet or on my knees in the bin stacking bags. So these shoes get a tough workout 5 days a week and dont miss a beat. My feet stay cool and while still providing great protection! Their very light and breath very well so if you work out doors then i would def suggest these shoes for summer wear. Love the All Out Blaze series, well except for the new all out blaze shoes... the water proof ones suck.

This shoe has a mesh upper that helps keep it very lightweight. Feels sturdy and is comfortable.

I wear a 15-16 and have relied heavily on the Moab Mid gore-Tex for about 6 years now. I just recently decided to transition to a lighter shoe and these have been amazing!!! I work 10-12 hour days standing on concrete every day and ride BMX every day. On the weekends we hit the trails and hike as much as possible. In the last 6~ months I've had these we've probably done 70-100 miles on dirt and done more than a few wet trips that require multiple water crossings. The grip is second to none and at the end of a hike my feet are still happy! If you couple these with high quality hiking socks (I prefer Merrels socks) they make for a great match either crossing streams or just out in th rain as the mesh sides allow your feet to breathe and assist in drying them in a very quickly. I can't recommend these highly enough! After thrashing them pretty hard I'm about to order another pair and expect to have to retire these in another month or two as the insole is starting to wear through at the palms of my feet.

Picked the 11.5 based on the Zappos sizing calculator which said if I’m and 11.5 in New Balance I’m an 11.5 in these. The heal and sides fit perfectly but the length was too long by quite a bit. I stuck a Salewa size 12 insole in the 11.5 and it fit perfectly! The arch is higher then many other shoes and there is no removable insole. Very airy and soft inside, easy to wear without a sock. They did however squeak quite loudly when walking on hard floors! I’m sure that would stop but it was odd.

Just retired my 1st pair and bought a 2nd. For the past three wet wading seasons I have put these shoes through the wringer. 30+ long days each season of hiking, scrambling, and beating the crap our of them wading up and down rivers while fly fishing.
For a fly fisherman these are fantastic. There's nothing like wet wading in a cold river on a hot summer day and for me these shoes have proven to be the best option out there. The Vibram bottoms provide comparable grip to my Korker Dark Horse wet wading boots. The mesh design allows my feet to get wet while wading, drains water quickly while on land, and prevents pebbles from getting in the shoe. The hard rubber toe cap has saved me from numerous stubbed toes. The Unifly construction provides structural integrity for an overall pretty minimalist design. The light weight doesn't bog me down on long hike-ins and allows me to be nimble on and off the river.
I've used these up and down the Rockies in Colorado, Wyoming, and Idaho, back home in Rhode Island fishing for stripers, and on the flats in Hawaii fishing for Trevally and Bonefish. After three incredible summers of sure-foot wet wading I can't imagine switching to another shoe. Secrets out. Get you a pair!

When I travel, my girlfriend and I often put in ten-plus miles a day of walking around. When my much-loved Sketchers finally wore out, I found they didn't make them anymore so I decided to try these after reading good reviews online. I ordered my usual size (9).
When I first put them on, they felt as if they were a half size too big. While the middle of the shoe fits snugly, the toe and heel are wider than I'm used to, which felt odd at first and I feared that my foot would move around in them and cause blisters. However, having worn them a few weeks, I can say that the roominess is not a problem and they are extremely comfortable.
I highly recommend these shoes and suggest you don't be put off by the initial feel. Wear them a bit and you'll forget you have them on.

This shoe is very comfortable right out of the box. Lots of room in the front. Grip is good and sole seems like it'll last. Well ventilated. It is more lightweight than I thought it would be, but not a big deal.
I would be careful on rocky trails though. I imagine the mesh might tear if pushed too hard.
Overall, very pleased.

I couldn't say just how much I love this versatile shoe. I wear it to kayak, and never slip on rocks or begrudge a steep, tight, or mushy portage. I've been up to my knees in mud when things went awry and got out of the jam just fine because of how agile these lightweight, vented shoes allow me to be. I wear them hiking in 3 seasons, and my feet have never gotten tired, sore, or developed blisters. I don't even have to think about stream crossings. The traction is incredible. I've scrambled up slick nearly vertical faces. I've worn them caving and been the envy of everyone in heavy boots. When they get filthy, I just take them home and rinse them off and they dry up good as new. They are so durable - could never tell the adventures these shoes have seen.
I am a woman who likes the extra space and quality construction of a men's shoe, but I've converted my boyfriend to this model as well. They are just perfect. For so many activities.
