Customer Reviews Merrell MQM Flex

I don't trail run, but these are perfect for the easy to moderate hikes I do. They provide excellent stability and traction over rough trail terrain. Cool color too.

I got these shoes because I am familiar with the Merrell brand, and they did not disappoint! They fit perfectly and feel like my hiking boots. I have been jogging in them and took a short hike, and in both cases they performed great. I actually liked hiking in them better than my boots since I didn't slide at all coming down hill, so my toes didn't get smooshed. Definitely will purchase again.

'I was looking for an all purpose active shoe and this one fits the bill I was looking for an all purpose active shoe and this one fits the bill perfectly! It fits well and is very comfortable! ! It fits well and is very comfortable!

I purchased this shoe for walking and it is very comfortable, lightweight, great cushion and support. I am happy with the purchase. The laces are flat not a round lace, they look great but I hope they stay tied. So far they are.

This is my second pair and will continue to purchase. The shoes hold up and are comfortable.

I couldn't be happier with my new shoes! Thank you!

These were my first pair of Merrells. I recently moved to AZ and wanted an airy shoe that I could wear casually and also for short hikes. These were perfect! Love the fun colors. Most comfortable shoes I own now.

These sneakers are exactly what I was seeking for my warmer weather weekend hikes in the mountains! They are super lightweight and breathable, with excellent arch support and no breaking in needed! They have great traction with deeper treads, which is great for hiking up loose shale and gripping uneven or wet terrain. The treads also protect feet, with reinforcement on toes and the outer sole. The shoe laces stay tiedno need to double knot. Would recommend these for anyone who loves to hike in milder temperatures! They also look fantastic and I wouldn't mind wearing them out and about.

I love walking in my new Merrell shoes! I have plantar fasciitis, as well as high arches, and a bunion starting, so I need shoes for these issues. These shoes were great from the first walk I took in them. They run just a bit large, so will order my next pair a half size smaller. I love the color, too (turquoise and salmon). ;-)

I absolutely love these shoes. I never take them off. They are so comfortable. The sole is very firm, good arch support, and I can walk for miles and miles and miles with no issues. These are my first merrells. I'm a customer for life now. I have had an issue with the black rubbing off of the design. I don't really care but that would be an issue if you're concerned about the cosmetics of the shoe as well.

With the stay at home orders I have been hiking and walking more than I did before. I decided to challenge myself to explore a new forest preserve everyday and knew I needed to find a new shoe to do so safely. Well, this shoe checks off ALL the boxes. Stylish, comfortable (I had surgery on both feet and have a difficult time finding a shoe that doesn't cause pain), excellent grip and yet lightweight. I am going to buy another pair since I have already put on 20 miles in 2 days with these babies and I work in surgery, so when the OR reopens full force I will be ready to go! Do yourself a favor and get yourself a pair. You won't regret it.

This shoe was very comfortable. I wore around the house for about 2 hours and the right shoe started to squeak. This is the 2nd new pair of Merrells (2 styles) I have returned because of this issue. The last pair I kept wore for about 1 month and it began to squeak; another pair started to squeak after about 6 months. This is very disappointing as Merrell fits my foot so well; however, it is time to move on to another brand.

I've been wearing Merrell shoes for running / exercise for the past nearly 5 years, including the All Out Crush, Tough Mudders and the MQM Flex, and have loved them all! Returning to replace my MQM Flex pair because I have worn them out. As long as Merrell continues to produce excellent quality products I will continue to purchase them as my outdoor / exercise shoes. Thanks, Merrell!

So this is my first pair of Merrells and I love them so far. I am ex-military and am a heavy boot wearer even now that I'm out, so I'm always looking for a strong shoe that protects my ankles and feet like boots. These aren't exactly boots but they sure do feel sturdy like a pair of 6". I have a large yard that I push mow, weedwhack, and just spend a lot of time outside working on. My first time wearing them was opening day of mowing season and at first I had a bit of a hard time. The arch support and toe box are a little tight but I have weird feet anyway, by the end of first wear my feet hurt a bit. But like any boot they just need worn a few times. Also I should note that I've been in house slippers for the last month working from home, so putting on a brand new pair of real lace up shoes was like putting bowling shoes on after wearing flip flops all summer. But I've worn them on my morning walks now for a week and when I made a quick store run and they are great! The grip and tread are fantastic, not too thick like I'll trip over it. They are extremely sturdy, the laces are made of strong fiber and I don't feel like I'll roll an ankle while mowing up and down my hilly yard. I have a feeling these shoes are going to feel better with wear and I couldn't be happier with them! I can't wait for the parks to re-open so I can take them on my favorite trails through the woods.
