I loved the look of this shoe, but the problem is getting it ON. Look closely and you will see there is not a regular, loose tongue for the top of the shoe to open to receive your foot. It is all one piece and while it is flexible, it is not easy to get the shoe on your foot. The tongue area had folded under once I got it on and i knew then I'd likely avoid this shoe in my closet with that kind of struggle. If this shoe had been a traditional lace-up, i'd probably have kept it. I even ordered a half-size up, and that still was was not enough to ease with putting the shoe on. Have always loved Merrell shoes, just not this particular design.

So disappointed! Shoe feels not padded enough for my tender feet. Also ran hot on me. Fabric was uncomfortable and the shoe felt overall kind of like wearing plastic, not the soft hug I want!

I really love the look of these, but the elastic stitching around the ankle is so uncomfortable. The ankle cut out is hitting me in exactly the wrong place. Overall the shoe is roomy enough, so I can't size up. Most merrells fit me perfect, so I'll just look for another style.

These work wonderfully at the gym, and walking around Lake of the Pines. I wore them on our trip to Cancun. They are easy to get off and on at the security check in at the airport. They are light and the arch support makes them perfect for wearing all day long

These fit so nicely! I love the low profile and the minimalist design. Vibram soles are my favorite. Will definitely be getting another pair.

Very comfortable but you have to have the socks with the ankle guard.

Love them!! Nice wide toe box, which works great for my feet. Plenty of natural foot movement and great arch support. Overall shoe length is shorter than expected, but it worked for my feet. If you tend to run a closer to the next half size up, I'd do that. I love these. Bought them in two colors!

I walk about 6 miles a day. These are the best walking shoes I have come across in a few years. This is my second pair and I am thinking I should buy another before they stop making them.

I'm a very picky and hard to fit shoe person. These have plenty of width in the toe box, niey supportive arches, are light breathable and the right amount of cush. Pretty much my fav sneaks ever. I'll be getting another color

merrell is my go-to for reliable active footwear, and these are no exception. I love that they are slip-on, I love that i can wear them with or without socks. they've quickly become my favorite chase after my 4 year old at the park or zoo shoes. took one wear to break them in, have been perfect since!

These are exactly what I hoped for! I needed a shoe to wear outside to train dogs on and around rugged and wet terrain and these have stood the test of time and are still comfy as ever! I might have to buy another pair just to keep just in case Merrell stops making these!

Great for Flat feet or plantar fasciitis, Love the sneakers bought them in a 9 they definitely run a half size smaller my daughter wears an 8 1/2 so she can wear the 9 in these and I ended up ordering a 9 1/2 but absolutely recommend the sneakers they have great arch support!

I recently bought these shoes to backpack through The Enchantments with. Bought the Mag-9s a week before my trip. It was super scary to get shoes that I hadn't been able to wear in yet. And was scary to read some of the reviews on here. But they proved to be incredible! No blisters, no hurting feet, super comfy, and they gripped the rocks so amazingly well! If you ever hiked the enchantments before, you know what a crazy and rocky terrain it is. And these shoes made me feel safe and like I wasn't going to slip off the rocks I was decending down on. 25 miles, 5500 feet of elevation later, and my feet were and still are so happy! And they are super stylish looking as well, I love them so much!! THANK YOU MERRELL! Visit @foxandpines to see some of our enchantments adventures!

First off, thank you for making vegan friendly shoes! I purchased these primarily for weight training. The grip on these is fantastic for maintaining proper form and I am a big fan of the one piece slip on design. I found these to be true to size with great support and cushioning built in and they are so lightweight and breathable. All in all exactly what I was looking for!

I was looking for a pair of colorful athletic shoes to wear casually around the neighborhood and for running errands. These are perfect! Same as mentioned, I don't have a problem getting them on my feet. I have several pairs of Merrells and I'll admit that when I first put these on I was a little surprised by the fit due to the high arch support and slightly less cushioning than normal. Not bad - still very comfortable; just had to get used to the feel. I also love the wide toe box and stretchy upper. My feet are slightly wide and these fit great!

I stand and walk a lot at work. I also have problems with my Achilles tendon. I can walk in these shoes all day and my feet do not hurt at the end of the day.
