Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Gust 2

This was the second pair of this same shoe that I've ordered in approximately two years. Loved, loved the first pair. I found the second pair to be extremely similar in fit but not in material comfort. The upper, which I believe to be a leather, is much more stiff on initial wear and feels less comfortable. Not bad, just less comfortable. I've worn them about a dozen times and I don't feel any difference in the "stiffness " of the material. I don't remember any breaking in time on the first pair. The form of the shoe is so good and I'm hoping the upper will soften , but so far no changes. The first pair was black and the second a brown. Maybe different material???.

Nice looking, well constructed shoe. Seems to run at least a half of a size small. I have the suede version and I ordered based on that shoe. Way too small and my toe blisters when I wear them.

After4 years these shoes have held up like a champ! I wear them in the OR every day & they clean up nice & have formed to my foot. I have to buy a new insole every year, but they look great!

Bought these shoes for culinary school off of the recommendation from a friend who had gone through culinary school already. I'm picky about my shoes and these have been AWESOME. I'd expect my feet to ache from time on my feet, but they haven't once. A classmate of mine bought another brand's "cuter" shoe, and ended up having pain/foot fatigue after week 2. She asked me for my shoes and now has a pair on the way. A+ from me

I bought these to replace a pair I have had for years that were finally wearing out. These are comfortable and last a love time.

Great shoes. Super comfortable, perfect for being on your feet all day. Lightweight but very durable. The wide fit is actually wide fit. No need to return for a different size like you have to do with every other pair of shoes you buy on the internet. Highly recommended

I had these for year. They are GREAT. I'll get another pair soon.

As a teacher, I need comfortable shoes I can stand in all day. These fit the bill and perfectly fit my wide feet as well!

My go to shoes - day in & day out. Comfortable, durable, easy on & off.

Most comfortable slide on I've ever had. The shoe feels exactly like my Chameleon 8 and the slide in feature make them a perfect transition shoe from outside to inside and sharp enough lookin to wear to dinner.

Love the look, feel, and quality of all my Merrill's.

True fit to size. Very comfortable and stylish. Love these shoes

I bought these shoes for my husband as a Christmas present. He loves the comfort, support and fit. He is going to use these for daytime use in the house instead of slippers.

Love them, replacing previous pair of yard slip-ons, that I wore to the store more than once
