Customer Reviews Merrell District Mahana Backstrap

Loved this shoe. It is comfortable and I really liked the color. However, although I don't have narrow feet, I have skinny feet (not enough fat). So, the straps were too loose to be comfortable. I thought long and hard before returning them as I wanted them to work.

Love these sandals. Look great and support my feet. I can finally wear sandals again

Another Merrell product that fits right from the start. Good comfort and style. This sandal was comfortable from day one.

These sandals are even better than I expected. Very cute and so comfortable for walking. I would definitely recommend these sandals. Most comfortable ones I have.

The shoes fit as expected. The cork sole makes them very comfortable and sure-footed.!

I love Merrel shoes. They fit as it they are custom made for me. These sandals were at first difficult to put on, I had to use a shoehorn. But after 2times I didn't need it. I especially love the unconstricted toe area while also keeping my foot secure in the heel and instep. The new color goes with everything and can be worn in early spring.

I like the fit, comfort, and the neutral color. Bought them for a trip with a lot of walking involved.

Looking for a shoe that has more coverge and these covered it perfectly

The color on the bottom is coming off. I bought them new for the summer so I have had them a few months. The cork bottom color is coming off under my heel and under my toes at the top.

I expected the color to be more gray. The color was more brown than I wanted. Otherwise nice shoe, nice fit, and nice quality.

The shoe is extremely comfortable once you get it on. Since the elastic is new, it was very hard to get on the first time but relaxed with wear. It fits higher on my foot than expected exposing my toes more than usual. I love the color and comfort of the heel on this sandal.

I gave these shoes 4 stars even though I have to return them. I love how they look but, sadly, the straps across my left foot are too tight and the heels are too low for my plantar fasciitis prone feet.

This sandal fits snugly as opposed to last year's sandals with the slipping velcro straps. Walking is great but when sitting the elastic is too snug.

They seem great, but are too big for my usual size,

Literally this sandal feels like you don't have anything on. The strap around the heel can't hardly be felt which is such a great design. My only complaint is I would like there to be more toe coverage. Just have the top of the shoe design go just a tad bit further towards the end. Other than that I love them!

Nice shoe and great fit. Problem is, why don't you have half-sizes? Isn't the average shoe size in U.S. 7 & 1/2? I had to buy a 7 since you did not offer this, and my toes often are on the edge of the shoe.

I haven't worn these yet since spring/summer comes late to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan but they are very cute and feel comfortable when I tried them around the house!

I've had these for about a month. I am a fairly fit 59 year old with size 10.5-11 feet that are skinny. I bought a size 11 and they fit well except the top straps are a bit loose. But they are very light weight and comfortable. If I had to do it over I would get a half size smaller if available. My finicky feet love Merrell's.

I love Merrell shoes, and this pair does not disappoint. I only gave 4 stars rather than 5 becuase: the color on line seemed a little more grey than brown, and the name of the color - falcon - is cute but I've never seen a falcon, so I don't know what color they are. I do prefer color names that actually mean something. Also, I think a velcro heel strap would have been better than the elastic. Other than that, they are what I wanted, and very comfortable.

Shoes are comfortable and well made but not for me. I loved last years model which came in a thong. Merrell has seemed to discontinue all my favorite styles from last year

I am a long-time Merrell fan, and last year I got two pair of the same sandal that absolutely saved my feet. Hoping for an interim until the new styles come online, I tried these. The instep is too tight, and they are difficult to get on, even though they are the right size. The straps toward the front of the cross-pattern near the arch, gap out. Also, even though the color is true to the pictures, it is very muddy looking in real life. I'll keep checking the website for new sandals.

I am 56 yrs old and have worn a size 8 since adulthood. I have Merrell boots and closed in shoes that fit great but the footbed on these sandals are either short or mis-shaped at the toes for an 8 because a couple of my toes were going over the edge....and that's before the leather stretches with wear.

These shoes are very comfortable. I love the style and fit, however, they're just too difficult to get on and off. The design of the strap that goes around the back of the foot needs Velcro, or the stretchy part needs more stretch.
