Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Gust 2

I love the ease of stepping in and out of this shoe. I don't wear shoes in my home. This shoe is perfect for ease of putting on when I go outside and is a durable outdoor shoe. I had another pair like them that I wore out. They had a problem of a squeaking/squishy noise in the sole while walking. It was rather annoying. Hopefully these won't be that way.

In my time of life, almost any shoe hurts my feet after an hour or two. This pair, however, is easily slipped off and on. Lightweight, and looks like a real adult shoe. For those of us who object to gym clothes and sneakers outside a gymnasium, a good choice.

Very comfortable in the wide with, but inner heal padding has already ripped after just a few months of use very disappointing!!

While I normally like and usually buy Merrelll shoes, I gave this only 3 stars as it is my second pair of the same product. The last pair with a mesh top, purchased about 2 years ago, was a big disappointment. The rubber band just above the sole had detached. Perhaps that's why it is no longer available.

I have a lot of foot trouble. 8-10 years ago I found d the Merrell clogs. At that time there was even one with a moccasin toe. These shoes are all I can wear. I have noticed a reduction in quality over the years, both in the comfort of the arched footbed and in the quality of the leathers. This most recent pair seem to be a little shorter than the previous size tens I have been wearing for decade. All that said, these are the most comfortable shoes I can find. Just not as comfortable as they were before the manufacture moved to Vietnam.

I have been wearing these for 20 years and sadly they have been declining in quality and durability and now the rubber soles seperate from the upper at the toe, (my last 3 pair) the leather is thinner and the padding wears much more quickly, it is sad that the quality has been reduced while the price has increased. Please stop walmarting your products !!!

I ordered the same size I have ordered for several years. The shoes came almost an inch too long and somewhat narrow. I ordered a wide I realize you have changed the style a bit, but the sizing is very different.

Super comfortable, but didn't last. I've been wearing mine for over a year and the heel insole is coming apart. I really want to buy another pair, but it doesn't seem economical.
