Shoes are comfortable. Only issue is with the laces. They easily get untied.

Nice shoe but needs additional insole. The insole included is very hard.

I wore these on a trip to Ethiopia. They were comfortable and good for walking and hiking. The price was fair.

Pretty good shoe, not as comfortable as I was hoping. Could use more padding.

Very nice lightweight shoe that holds up well. I got these new for a killer deal so I'm a bit biased but overall a good shoe!

Comfortable and seem pretty rugged. Can't speak to longevity yet but feel well made. Knot stays tight and doesn't losen and untie. Feel a little clunky compared to other hiking shoes but worked well. I have had several pairs of merrel shoes in tje past and they have always performed well.

I took my first pair of Merrells to the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley. This new pair went to Starved Rock State Park and trekked 14miles thru the many canyons. Rugged, grippy and just right for most adventures.

Great toe box room. Fits wide feet. Needs more cushioning in front of foot very hard when walking.

The wide is very wide. I usually wear an E, maybe a double E width. These felt like a triple E, maybe wider. I returned these in favor of a medium width, hoping that runs wide also.

These shoes are flexible, yet sturdy enough for trail walking. I like how light they are. I only wish they had softer insoles and better arch support. I will need to get insoles to make them a little more comfortable. This might not be an issue for other people. I like them so much better than the Merrell Moab shoes, which I find to be stiff and heavy. I highly recommend these shoes.

The fit and comfort are great. The problem with this pair is the that the workmanship is not what I expected. The stitching on the toe between black rubber and the leather was frayed a bit and continues to fray. Hope they hang together. Feels a step down from the Moab. Regards, Wade

After getting the right size, these were very comfortable, though just a tiny bit too narrow. Very nice grip on the trail. Very good footbed/sole, stiff enough for some off trail hiking. On the sidehill, these tend to let your foot slide over, which is not so good.

The show felt big on my already large feet but the width and arch support was good unfortunately no a good match for some one wearing orthotics.

Good shoes. I do a lot of walking, and so far they have been comfortable and supportive. A little stiff -- still breaking them in. But they're good shoes.

I bought these based on positive reviews. So far the good reviews on comfort and fit have been right on the money. I have plantar fasciitis so it is very difficult to find a hiker that is comfortable for my feet. After a short 2 mile walk. I can report these are good for the short duration. Reasonably priced too. I am hiking in Utah next month so I will review them again after the hike. So far no complaints.

I have worn Merrell shoes and boots for years. These hikers live up to my expectations. They were all-day comfortable right out of the box! My work day keeps me on concrete and gravel throughout the day and these shoes offer support and cushioning to make that environment more tolerable. The subdued styling also works well in the business casual setting. Overall, I'm very happy with this product!

The issue I always have with Merrell is shoe laces. In the past decade, they are always to long. They are now so short that I have difficulty tying them
