I wore my old Merrell clogs into the ground. This new version feels wider and has a much higher instep, similar in size to the Merrell Breeze. I wear a medium width but need to wear thick socks with these, in addition to thick foam insoles and orthotics. And even then, they’re not as snug as my old ones. I’m hoping they won’t stretch much.

Although I normally wear Keens and haven't liked Merrell fit in the past,
these shoes are SO comfortable. Nice change Merrell. Love these shoes.

I LOVE my old leather Merrell clogs and am WAY disappointed that they have made changes to such a good thing. My foot is a true 8 medium. The current Encore Nova 4 runs longer and yet going down a size makes the length too short for me. It also runs noticeably wider and no longer offers the support once did. It is especially roomy where the top of the clog meets the top of my foot. Although a poor fit is the deal breaker for me, I will also add that the leather does not have the same quality look that my old ones still have. Totally bummed as have not yet found a clog as supportive and comfy as my original Merrells. I'm sorry they messed with such a good thing but am sure there are people with wider feet that are thankful for this change.

Everything was perfect about this shoe. Comfortable from the get go, with plenty of room in the toe box. Easy on and easy off. Highly recommend this shoe!

Really like these shoes...they are super light, with moderate arch support (I have high arches, and these shoes still work for me). They have great traction and don’t slip off, which makes them feel very secure when walking up and down stairs. It took just a day or two to break them in, and now they are definitely helping with my foot and knee pain. I’m a 10.5, and that’s the size I bought. Great fit.

These shoes are so very comfortable! Love the way I can slip in and out of them, yet they hug my heel and feel very stable. Merrell shoes are typically too narrow for my foot, but these are perfect. I wear them to work and am looking forward to using them as airport shoes!

I bought a pair of these Merrell clogs years ago and they fit me perfectly (size 6). Obviously Merrell has completely changed this shoe, too big, too loose, toe box shaped weirdly, slipping out of the back. The next size smaller would be too small. Returned them. Disappointed.

I wear either a 9 1/2 and 10 medium in most shoes and these in a 10, worn barefoot, are 1/2 - a full size too large on me. I will order the 9.5 and see how it goes.

These shoes are absolutely perfect for people with arthritis and polymyalgia rumatica as I have. It's no longer difficult to put my shoes on and they are so comfortable which also helps my plantar fasciitis.

These shoes wear like steel. I haven't worn a pair out yet. They are great for wearing all day and are great at supporting your legs. They shine up really well and look great with pants. I have a back up pair for when these finally wear out. They are my favorite shoes!

I bought these for my mother to replace her old ones and she said they are comfortable and just what she needed. Zappos is the best company to work or deal with. Easy to order or return. Thank you!

I have worn 9.5 in Merrell's for years, but in this shoe I needed a 10. I have narrow, flat feet. These were a bit narrower than other pairs, and offered more support than older versions. I can wear these very comfortably with a thick pair of socks and my orthotics. These will be my wear at home shoes instead of slippers.

Best pair of clogs I have tried for Fit and comfort. I am 7 1/2 and ordered it and they were perfect. I have had
trouble with this in other brands. Love Merrells and Love Zapos and their wonderful service.

I have other Merrell shoes, but this design looked like a rubber boot from the top down. Also I have a high instep and the shoe was a bit tight across the top. Returning the shoes was very easy.

Wow, it's hard to believe these are the same Merrills I bought many years ago. Those fit like a dream and had excellent support. I wore them after my foot surgery when nothing else would fit. The new ones fit me horribly and were terribly uncomfortable. I have no idea how you make a shoe that uncomfortable. Sad to send them back

This is my favorite shoe -- wish I had found it years ago. When a pair becomes unsuitable for public viewing it becomes my outdoor slip-on to hang the laundry or feed the chickens. I am smart enough to have a new pair on its way before it gets to that state, however. :-)
