Great shoes. They are comfortable and very functional. I’ve worn them every day since receiving. I love the color and fit.

I bought a 7.5 so that my orthotics would be sure to fit in. They do, but I don’t really need them. The boots have a nicely cushioned sole and enough arch support for me even without my orthotics. They are roomy in the toe box for my bunions and felt very comfortable out of the box. I put on thicker socks in order to prevent some minor scraping against my ankle bone when my foot slides up and down while walking. I don’t think this will be a problem. The espresso is a really nice dark brown. I chose these over Blundstone and Thursday boots. I chose them for their waterproof feature. I hope they will be good for rainy weather.

Tts. Stiff in the ankle at first but perfect after 3or so wears. Slippery on wet tile floors. Very cute. Good for work and errands. Not too narrow in metatarsals, but heel narrow enough that it doesn't slide about.

My wife wanted these for Christmas so I gave her a pair. She has had a black pair for a long time and chose Expresso for these. She really has enjoyed the black ones and was thrilled to get these!

I live in a small town where I can pretty much walk everywhere I need to go. I bought these so I'd have comfortable shoes I could wear to work and not have to bring another nicer pair to work in. These fit the bill. My feet are never cramped or rubbing uncomfortably. The only thing is that I don't know that they're really waterproof. The leather changes and becomes darker when it gets wet, which means its soaking into the material. My feet have never gotten wet, but I don't like wearing them when it's raining just to be safe. These are great shoes and seem like they will really last.

I really like these boots! Merrill does not disappoint. Fit is good. Just wish they were a little more cushiony, like Uggs. Still they were what I was looking for in a winter walking boot ; for longer walks I’ll just wear heavier socks.

Fit and size for me was perfect with thick sox. I have a narrow heal, so with thin sox the shoe is a little loose. I use orthotics, and this shoe works great with them. Recommended by a friend.

These boots are great. They are quite comfortable to wear all day, keep my feet warm (but not too warm!) and are waterproof. They also look good with pants and skirts. I ordered them online and the size was just right and they came quickly. Glad I bought them!

I have only worn them out once but they look and feel great! The removable insoles make them possible for me to customize the shoe for my foot. (I rarely buy shoes that don't have them.) The buckle and zipper zap the look of the bootie a tad and I am so glad that I got the Andover Bluff. I have always had good luck with Merrell's fit and durability. Not only can these booties go out to dinner, they can do some light hiking. After a long process of ordering and returning booties, I bought these and a pair of Eccos. Thank you Zappos. I could not find what I needed without you.

I disagree with others and think this boot runs large. I wear a 10-1/2 shoe so that’s what I ordered but had to exchange for a 10. Which fit just right.

I was so excited to see that Merrell released a boot just like the old Captiva, and in an ankle boot!! I ordered these in a 9, I am normally a 9.5, but I knew from previous that these run a tad large. I did like the insole from the Captiva better it had a little more give. The insole in the Andover is really hard, almost too much arch support. I have orthotics, which for in perfectly or I can put my old Captiva insoles in them.

These are very comfortable, but was looking for something not quite as casual. THey probably are true to size because I usually order a size 8 and these were 7.5 and a half size too small.

I always like the larger toe box that Merrill shoe&boots provide. This boot has not failed in that respect so I am able to wear 1/2 size smaller and a heavy sock with padded toes and fits just fine. Am able to wear for long days walking and standing on my feet with no break in period.

I was looking for both a comfortable and stylish low-cut boot and this fits the bill. These boots are roomy, accommodate my orthotics, and are very comfortable. They are also waterproof but the leather is so nice you would never know. I recommend these boots.

I love these boots. I've worn them for about a week straight on a trip where I've done a lot of walking. The last fits my feet excellently (Merrells almost always do) and they're comfy and quite warm. I've thought about getting another pair in the other color, I love them so much!

Love these boots! Typically mediums are too narrow and wides are too wide, but these boots have a bit wider toe box and fit perfectly

I'm thrilled that Merrell finally brought back a boot similar to the old Captiva and Tetra. I tried the short style they put out last year, and it was awful, but these are awesome. The foot bed is very comfortable and just roomy enough, and I was able to wear these right out of the box. The buckle is very cute, and the height is just right with skinny jeans. I ordered the brown, and they are a nice dark only with a smoother leather that would look a little more refined or dressy. I am very thankful that I found these boots, and I will be ordering them in the black as well.

I have wide feet. These are easy to get on, fit great, and super cute. Also small heel makes them comfy to wear all day. definitely recommend them for those with wider feet.

Merrell at his best! I have continuously five star experience with company and this pair is not an exception. Very flexible, very comfortable and I trust will be also waterproof- what's more for grey, depressing, cold weather...

Great boot out of the box. Walked a few miles in them the first day I wore them and they were perfectly comfortable. No break in period needed on these and they look cute with jeans.

I bought these boots because they are stylish enough to wear to Paris in the spring, and kept my feet dry during a week of rain showers.
