The straps across the top of your foot is stiff and irritating with a sharp edge. I was very disappointed. I wanted to keep them to see if the straps would soften, but they are made of nylon, not sure it would ever become soft.

I loved these flip flops! Yes the strap is a bit stiff at first and did rub the top of my foot, but after a bit they softened.
But I no longer love these flip flops as after about 2 months the toe stap pulled out from the base. Pretty dissapointing for a brand like Merrell.
I'd also recommend:
Merrell, Keen, Montrail, columbia, Chaco.

Bought to replace my beloved Chaco flips, which had changed styles. These broke the strap within 6 months. Strap pulled right out of the sole. Got a store credit, but the price doubled since I bought, and given the quality of these, I won't be reordering.
Waste of money.

Unfortunately, I wear a Women's 11M, so my only alternative for a larger size is the Men's version, which will be wide.
Length from thong to heel too short!
Length from thong to toe is fine.

These are the most supportive flip flops I have ever worn and so comfortable! I have bone spurs in my heels, completely flat feet and hx: plantar fasciitis! Best flip flops ever! No pain thank you Merrill!

The contour fits my feet well, the tread is sturdy and they are washable. I will have them for years!

I had both of my knees replaced late spring. These were recommended by my therapist. I love the arch support that they provide and the heel area is great. Ordered the brown first & then the black when they fit so well. I'm outdoors & swim a lot. I need my flip flops!

These are my FAVORITE Spring/Summer/Fall sandals! I wore them throughout our trip to Scotland in 2019, and I hiked on trails as well as cobblestone streets and never had blisters or sore feet. They have a bit of an arch support which really helps me out! I just ordered a new pair because my old ones are starting to fall apart. I was SO afraid that they would no longer be in production as an "obsolete" style. Needless to say I am very happy to have a new pair. I'm thinking about ordering several more in different colors just to have backups!

My main goal in purchasing a new pair of flipflops: a tread I could count on, even in slippery conditions. With a Vibram sole, the Merrells seemed the best around, and so far, I've been happy with them.

Absolutely LOVE the Breakwater Flip, especially in the complimentary "seaside" shade of 'Laurel'. Comfy, and not just good-looking: sleek inverted Y-shaped strap yet rugged sole. "We" love trekking to the beach in 'em, since it's a little distance of all sorts of terrain from blacktop parking lot to across an expansive green to the rocky, bumpy unimproved access 'road' to across a wide, creaky time-worn bridge to get to the silky shoreline, where, at that time, I whisk them off; tuck 'em in my backpack, and trek barefoot to the shoreline and into and along the water's edge...to get to the 'other' end.
All wonderful.
Best flip flop ever!
And I believe what I say since I bought 'em again, yesterday, to have a backup pair in the same seaside shade for next year!

Extremely comfortable, great fit, size is accurate. I have to hide them from my family, everyone lives them and wants a pair of their own.

Super comfortable flip flop that I wear all summer long. In this work from home environment I pretty much wear them all summer long. Good grippy sole that if I have them with me down by the boat, I dont need to worry about slipping on the dock. Would absolutely buy them again.

Breakwater is more than a slip on, it holds to my pedals, adds traction to the trek and still looks cute with a skirt.

Love this sandal. Straps did feel a little stiff when I first put them on, but they softened into comfort VERY quickly. They are also washable (air dry), which was especially helpful with the green ones... Bought it in the mint green and a soft brown - as backup - a good thing since I LOST the green ones somewhere and haven't been able to locate them ?. Now looking to replace them but color not available. ? Thinking of "settling" for the grey, but may hold out till Spring to see if the green comes back...

At first when I tried them on I thought I would be irritated by the mesh strap, but after wearing for a short time (an hour or so) I didn’t even notice it. Love the soles and the comfort of these. Enjoying them so much, that I just ordered another pair in the only other color they are available in.

This is a high quality flip flop with a very comfortable sole. Unfortunately they run about a full size small. Returning them for a larger size.
