I wear these every day. Shopping, church, around the house - everywhere. They are absolutely the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Carried them to Switzerland and France and will be wearing them to Maine this month as we celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary by going to the New England states. Can't say enough about these shoes.

I loved these, the fit is perfect, I love the color! However, I cannot get over the odor of this shoe. I’ve let them air out for 2 weeks to no avail. I will be returning them for this reason only.

These shoes a very comfy, I like how I can slip them on and off. They're great to use at home, go to the store or an informal gathering. The construction is superb! I also have a black pair.

I purchased two pairs of these shoes to replace the two pairs I have worn out. The new black pair fits perfectly; the platinum pair was too big by at approximately 1/2 size. The shoes were identical in size but the size discrepancy caused me to return the platinum pair.

These Merrell Encore Breeze 4 are incredibly comfortable and help diminish my knee pain. I wear them all the time.

These shoes are great, comfortable and look great. I am able to slip them on with no socks and stay comfortable. If wearing socks, size up slightly.

The one problem I’ve always had with any of the clog/slip on Merrells is the height of the back of the heel and how it digs in and rubs on the back/bottom of the heel. I prefer the ease of this style but have to stick with the Encore Breeze Moc due to its higher heel.

These shoes are SO comfortable, and great support! I wear them around the house mostly. As someone else mentioned in a review, they noticed a bad odor from the materials they are made with, I too had the same experience. Plus my feet get really hot and sweat in them. That combo was not pleasant. However, I did wash both in insert, and the shoes in the wash machine. Much to my surprise, they actually came out smelling a lot better! I wouldn't buy them again though.

I've worn a 7.5B for all of my adult life. These are at least a half size larger. I also ordered a 7M at the same time and they fit perfectly. !

Although there is arch support, it hits too far forward, and so does not feel good. Returning these shoes.

I bought these for around the house. I have to wear 3/4 orthotics and with those in, these still lack support. They feel more like 30.00 shoes to me. The fabric wrinkles in a weird way where the toes are, and they're just not very attractive. I appreciate the mesh fabric but they're still hot because they don't breathe.

I used to love Merrell shoes. I had a pair of mocs that I wore non-stop for 6 years. I only got rid of them because they were suede and I couldn't get them clean. This pair of shoes feels like a $10 pair of Payless shoes. There is no support at all and the heel is super uncomfortable. It looks like there is a bit of a heel in the pictures but there actually isn't anything that lifts up your heel at all. If I hadn't already worn them around my yard (trying to like them) I would send them back. I tried two different other insoles from other shoes thinking it would help, but it sure did not. It feels like you're walking directly on the ground! For this price, I expected so much more.

Comfortable with socks or without. They work for casual events from lunches downtown to walking the soccer field and gravel driveways. They don't slip on wet surfaces. They stay on your feet. Great, versatile shoes and nice looking too.

A half size up is ok for me. My feet swell during the day so they’re prefect most of the time. In fall and spring I’ll wear a thin sock and they’ll still be perfect. This is my 3rd pair of Encore Breeze shoes. I absolutely love the color - it’s sort of brownish dark olive. This color probably won’t get dirty looking but if they do, I can put them in the washer and dry them in the sun. Plus, they don’t look like old lady shoes (I’m 74)

I live in Merrells but I won't be living in these. The company has lowered the height of the "heel cup" and they just flop as you walk. I'm so disappointed because I really like the shoe and the blue color. I returned them.

I wear these almost everyday, but I most appreciate them on race days. Standing, walking, cheering...these are my favorite shoes for long days supporting my triathlete daughter on the 70.3 mile courses. Hauling gear, entertaining a little one, standing in line for the loo, cheering at transition, sharing hugs at the finish. They endure heat, dirt, water, dropped tacos and still look and feel great. They wash nicely and bounce back looking fresh.

My second pair. They are a very comfortable slip on, convenient for running out to the car, mail etc. Adequate arch support and long lasting. If they were less expensive I’d buy more colors.

Have worn the Encore Breeze in its many iterations for a long time. Needed to replace and almost didn't buy the Encore Breeze 4 because of the negative reviews. However I honestly cannot tell the difference between the old and new. The new is just as comfortable and gives the same level of support. I am very glad I bought them.
