Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Breeze 4

I ordered the 7 in the espresso brown which I had for years but the new one was so huge. I walked out of them. I returned them and downsized to 6.5 but they didn't have the brown so I switched to blue. They are still big. Disappointed in the sizing but I'm not returning. If I wear heavy socks I'm okay!

Not sure these are the same supportive Breeze clogs that have been my 'go to' shoes when I want to forget I have feet. Not quite the same bouancy, support or comfort that I'm typically expecting from Merrill's. Hopefully, they'll 'break in'.

Fabric is flimsy-not as sturdy as previous Encore models. Fabric at toe end is becoming wrinkled after only minimal wear. Previous shoes had better fabric and more e citing color selection. Current offerings are quite drab & boring.

Did not like this style as compared to my old Merrells. Front too long

I wanted to like them. I have a wide foot because of a bunion. I ordered the W. I even ordered a size larger thinking that would accommodate the wide toe box. It didn't. So regretfully I had to send them back. I have loved my Merrell in the past but now realize they are not wide enough for me.

I ordered Wide width in size 9 which usually fits me well. I have high instep. I couldn't even get my foot in them through the opening. It seems like they are made for wide toes but not the rest of the foot. I exchanged them for a size bigger. They fit now but just weird. I have a pair of old encore slip ons and love them. These are made very different, not sure if I will like them but will give it a try

I usually wear a size 7 in the Encore Breeze, but found this particular one to run too long- 1/2 size longer than usual. The width was fine. Still love the shoe- very comfortable- I wore them to work - on my feet all day.

They squeak too much. Did not have this problem with my old ones.

Soft shoe/washed ok cold water-no dryer/I had to add orthotic:with arch support/cupped heel

I purchased a pair of these in the Aluminum color which were a near perfect fit and I love. So I bought a second pair in black. Unfortunately, the fit of the black shoes is not the same, The upper has more volume, and the heel counter is lower so the shoes flop when I walk. I added a thicker insole to make the forefoot more secure, but they just aren't as comfortable as the first pair. It seems to me that better quality control is needed, to ensure consistency.

Not what I expected but comfortable.. material is netting web like and shoes are very long for size9

My feet sweat in these, which isn't what I had hoped. I wear these around the house

I loved the style which is why I purchased this shoe. It looked like it was going to be very comfortable with its slipper like slide styling. Nope. There is no cushioning (which is what I most desire in this type of shoe), no arch support. Merrell?? Really? Disappointed. Also, I am a true size 7 1/2 and planned to wear these shoes with either bare feet or very thin socks and I had to size up a 1/2 size since it ran short. I kept them, but they don't make me happy to wear them; but they are a good look. Just being a slave to fashion!

I bought this shoe in "aluminum" which I expected to be gray, much like the color pictured. What I got was a shoe that was beige. The leather trim was beige and the upper part of the shoe was a off beige color - pretty ugly. At first I thought they sent me the wrong color but the box said aluminum and there is nothing like this color pictured. They are going back.

I have four pair of Encore Breeze and am so disappointed that the design has changed. The back of the shoe is now shorter and I walk out of the shoe. Please, please, go back to the slightly higher back.

Fit not as I remembered. Toe area too small. Other than that they were great. But I had to return them.

I bought 2 new pairs last season in the cute colors (green and blue) they released after having lived for years in a black and an aluminum pair day and night. I love this shoe for the 3 seasons I can wear them. I switch to the tried and true jungle moc in the winter and late fall. I can't wear any other shoe but Merrells. For comfort and versatility (around town and in the woods) they can't be beat. I was so disappointed to find that the fabric on the encore breeze was less breathable then years before and my foot sweated more. It is a duller thinner colored mesh on the upper arch. Please don't cut corners! Very disappointed! For the summer, this is very unpleasant and hot (actually anytime!). The prior fabric was much cooler to the foot.
