These shoes fit perfectly and held up well all winter long in my outdoor work environment. My feet were often warmer than the rest of me.

This hiking boot is waterproof and insulated with good traction. It is nice looking and seems it will be warm and functional.

I recommend ordering at least 1/2 size up to allow room for socks.

I wore these boots the day they arrived. After days of snow and ice, the fit was great, and my feet were warm and dry. I wear a women's 10, but always buy a size up for Merrell. After several days, I had a little rubbing on my legs, but that resolved quickly. Great value, well made, and if they are like my other Merrell's, they will last a long time!

Love these as soon as I took them out of the box. Looking forward to putting them to good use for years to come.

I love my shoes. The shoes are well built and a little heavy, of course they are winter boots.

Love this boot. I have used this boot hiking three times so far in Michigan Winter, in temps as low as -10 deg F, and up to a foot of snow.
Warmth: great. One thick pair of hiking socks has been enough to far.
Size: just right.
Performance: Love it. This is a heavier boot, but it's worth it. I have had no moisture leaking into the boot. There is a good amount of elevation off the ground with this boot due to the robust treads and protection around the bed of the foot. This actually helps when hiking through rough uneven hard snowy and icy terrain. It's easier to break through snow as well when there's more inches on the ground. The height of the boot over the ankle is also just right. The foot and ankle feel well supported and protected.
My only complaint is that I am flat footed, and so it's a little more arched than comfortable and I got some hot spots on my instep, but I expect that to get better with better hiking socks and getting used to the boots over time.

Great boot. Nice and warm for winter use. Good quality boot with excellent gripping soles. Look good, not stylish, but that’s not point!

These boots are waterproof, warm and light. I have been hiking in the woods in zero degree weather here in NH since I got them and I could be more satisfied with them.

These boots are excellent for keeping my feet warm, in combo with wool socks. I haven't used them on a true hike through the woods, though. However, I work at a zoo and these have really saved me when I'm out working in the cold, snow, and/or rain. They're super comfortable and toasty. Everyone else has been complaining about how cold their feet are and I have nothing to say because mine are practically sweating.

Good ankle support for walking on slippery surfaces. Very warm for outside use. Too warm for extended periods indoors. Great Merrill fit and quality. Also bought a pair of men's same boot. Husband loves them!!

Just received my order and these boots are warm and comfy and look good as well. However they are VERY SQUEAKY on wood or vinyl floors! Not sure yet if I will keep them as I think they will drive everyone around me bonkers.

Very comfortable boots, but not entirely waterproof. My feet did begin to feel wet after an hour of walking through slushy snow.

Warm, good grip, great ankle support, comfortable for trails. My feet are very hard to please with arthritis and arch issues. Someone earlier mentioned a negative heel which is why I tried this boot. I wear Birkenstock's in the house all the time, the foot design of this boot does not put pressure on the ball of my feet.

Merrell has won my business time and time again. Comfort fit durability and style consistantly surpass my expectations. Recently purchased the Thermo Chill Mid Shell Waterproof. Merrell has delivered yet agian. Right out of the box the boots felt good. Deep heal and sufficient arch support. Light weight yet warm. The sole offers up adequate traction on ice and snow. Looking forward to winter wanderings. Thanks guys!

I was disappointed that the upper laces were eyelets and not speed laces. Grub the photos I thought the last two on the ankle would be speed laces like all other boots, but instead they are metal eyelets. Difficult to put on & off

The fit was ok, good arch support. They felt comfortable inside and good sole grip for winter. However, round shoelaces which dont stay on were a minor irritation, and more importantly, the top of the boots is hard and rubs against my ankles. I walk every day for at least an hour, and I needed comfortable shows for winter. The top of the boots are not comfortable. I hope that after a few weeks, my skins will get numb enough so it doesn't get irritated, but that doesn't deserve more than 2/5 for the comfort.

I ordered these to try and replace my Merrell Contra Glacial Ice boots (discontinued), which look almost identical but had the vibram Arctic Ice soles. Got them on and while they are very comfortable and warm, they just do not offer the grip on ice that my Contra's did, and that was a dealbreaker. I really loved the enclosed laces (the laces always pulled off the hooks on my Contras during long outings, no matter how I tied them) and the height (which gave great ankle support and would have kept snow out). These boots would be excellent in places that have slushy or muddy winters but not icy ones.
Really wish they would offer the Arctic Grip sole in a mid-high height boot like the Chill that would stand a chance at keeping snow out. The Freeze is way too short (even with a gator snow would come in at the back) and the Rhea is way too sloppy for real hiking. Such a shame Merrell!

These shoes were very heavy and stiff when I tried them on. Too "chunky" looking - only good for hiking use, not fashionable.
