Customer Reviews Merrell Siren Hex Q2 E-Mesh

First, I have narrow feet. I wear a 7.5N and these in a 7.5 fit perfectly. I love the stretchy shoelaces - they made it easy to make the shoes as tight or as loose as I wanted them. And I love how they look. I tried the Siren traveller first, and it was either too big (8) or too tight (7.5) and ended up with the Siren Hex Q2. I bought these for a trip walking around European cities - think steep areas with cobblestones. I have plantar fasciitis, and my feet never hurt. I love how these shoes feel & look BUT: if it rains, they will get soaked. I had to be careful walking on cobblestones in the rain, as they did slip a bit. These shoes are lousy if you step on any metal grates in the rain - I nearly bit it twice wearing these shoes, but I just avoided stepping on metal grates or covers in the rain. Merrell clearly made these for Americans who walk on concrete or hike on grass. I wish they'd improve the grip, but I do love these shoes.

I bought these as a last minute purchase less than a week before a heavy walking trip in Ireland. These were AWESOME!!! Lightweight, super comfortable, I didn't bother breaking them in and my feet were fine. I didn't anticipate loving them so much or wearing them every single day. They also go great with skinny jeans (not all good walking shoes look good with that style of pant).

I’ve always been partial to Merrill shoes and these reconfirm that they’re made to fit my feet. I generally need a shoe that my custom orthotics will fit into, as I sometimes get plantar fasciitis, but as soon as I saw how high the arch was in this pair, I knew I could wear them as is. I really like the overall “profile” of these shoes; they don’t look big and clunky like so many walking shoes. They look good with the narrow cuffs so many jeans have now and the color (a denim blue) doesn’t scream “Look at me!”. They basically fit like a supportive glove.

I love these shoes. They are comfortable, lightweight, and fit perfectly. I have problem feet; they are small (5.5), narrow, and an early accident left one foot permanently damaged. I can wear these shoes all day, every day, for any activity without problem or pain. They also have a streamlined appearance that seems more fashionable than the usual clunky athletic shoe. Comfortably wearable right out of the box. This is my second pair of Merrills and I’d recommend them to anyone with problem feet.

The shoes are very cute and pretty comfortable. My only complaint is the tongue is not very padded and it rubs the top of the foot when wearing no-show socks. I wear them to work on my 12-hour shifts in a busy ED and they are comfortable, although not super cushiony and soft like I usually prefer my work shoes. Will probably use these for working out moor and buy some ascics or brooks for work.

I have two pairs of this shoe and love both. The one concern I have is the lack of arch support. It’s moderate at best so for running errands, the shoes are fine. I wore them on vacation though and it just wasn’t enough support for a long day.

I like that it’s a lightweight alternative to my hiking boots. They did pretty well on my first time out for a five mile hike. They could use a little more cushion in the footbed imo. I guess that would make them not so light though. They’re pretty stylish, and I like the color. Overall I’d recommend these; they fit true to size for me.

Unfortunately these are going back. I felt the foot bed is too hard, thin, and not comfortable and I'm not normally a picky person. I was hoping for a more cushioning. Nice looking shoe and the Zappos had a good sale price on the grey color. I have Merrell sandals that I wore out and was hoping for the same fit with this. Also I found the toe area too long and am surprised as other comments were stating the shoes ran small. Maybe it is different in small sizes - I wear a 5 or 35EU in all brands and this had extra length for me.

Fit good with a large toe box. I love how much support Merrell’s give me. I wear an 8.5 and this was no exception. Love the washed aqua color. Doesn’t scream at you.

Light weight and comfortable walking shoe for travel. Would be easy to pack. I wear a 7 and the 7.5 fit nicely. I had to return only because I needed something a little more durable but otherwise I would have kept.

Love these! Casual enough for jeans but look good with casual slacks. Have the granite from another site and came back to my fave, Zappos, to get the olive color. Very comfy and has a nice arch support

Merrell's Siren Sport Q2 - I have purchased for my last 3 pairs of walking shoes, they are actually labelled as hiking, but are great shoes with allot of support. Merrell's give me great support and fit for my feet of any shoe I have purchased for outdoor activities. I was hoping that Merrell would come out with a lighter weight shoe and they have in this Siren Hex Q2 E-Mesh. I opened the box, put my socks on and my new Merrell's, and I was off for their maiden voyage.) I walk 4 to 6 miles daily.) They did not disappoint, love the style and colors available, and so much lighter for everyday walking. I usually wear an 8 1/2, but go up 1/2 size for my orthotics to a size 9. I am 5'2" and 116 lbs. Only one tiny down side, I thought, is that the laces are shorter than my other shoes, I usually double tie them, but the material for the Siren Hex Q2 E-Mesh is made of different material, so just one tie seems to be working.Thank you Zappos for 2 way free shipping and carrying Merrell's.

I absolutely adore my two pairs of Merrell Siren Hex Q2 E-Mesh shoes! So much so, that I bought this pair for my Mom. She says I spoil her. I say, I have no-one else to spoil and the pets don't wear shoes! These things are SO comfy, I wear them almost daily. I'm hoping she'll feel the same way about hers!

I love these shoes but had to return them. These shoes were not good for someone (me) whose feet suffer from supination.

these are the best sneakers i have owned - they are so comfortable and i walked through europe in them with no issues - they breathe nicely - love love love

I really love these but sadly the size 11 was too small for me. Other Merrels this season have fit me very well but not these guys.

I love the shoes they were just about a half a size too small so I'm returning these and I'm going to purchase the exact same ones only in a half a size bigger

I absolutely love these shoes!! They fit perfectly!

I love the light feel and comfort of this shoe. I can't wear a heavier shoe for long, as they get too hot in the southern climate.The upper is breathable and the toe box is wide enough. I am glad for this pretty aqua color and not drab colors .

I wear jeans a lot so I’m always looking for blue shoes. These are a great color and style. Merrill’s usually fit me well and I appreciate the ample toe box-no cramped feet. The “moderate arch support “ is misleading. If I didn’t have my Vionic insoles, the comfort level goes would go way down. But I do have insoles and these shoes look & feel great!
