I love my Merrell's!!! I have had a pair for 6 years. They are comfortable, durable & supportative. They help with my plantar fasciitis. They look stylish. I ordered them in black for myself & tan for my sister for Christmas. She stands all day at work, so I hope it eases her plantar fasciitis too.

Love them. Nice cushion. Fit nicely with socks. Probably going to get a black pair too.

We live in a rainy, wet woodland environment. I keep these by the door to quickly slip on to take the dog out, to grab packages, etc. They are comfortable and last forever.

Love Merrell. This style in particular is SO comfortable. Bought a pair for my 91 YO mother. She loves them!! They support her feet. They provide stability. And they're attractive. Going to buy another pair for myself, after wearing a pair out last year.

These shoes is so wonderful! There is a removable insole so my custom orthotics fit beautifully. And the wide is nice and roomy and doesn’t cause pain on my bunion. Highly recommend this shoe!

During lockdown, I did a lot of DIY home improvement which included lots of going up and down ladders. Unfortunately, I did something to trigger plantar fasciitis. I was desperate to find a shoe that would cushion my heels while provide excellent support for my high arches. Our of the 4 pair of shoes that I purchased from various companies, the Encore Nova 4 is, by far, the most comfortable! I've worn the heck out of them for the last 11 months and while they're still in great shape, I'm on the Merrell site purchasing the same shoe in another color. Awesome shoes!!!

Great slip-on shoe. Size 8.5W fit me perfectly. Very comfortable, especially with lightweight socks; stable; looks good with jeans and slacks. I love the dark leather.

The size was fine, 7 M. I had wanted a leather pair of these. I have had 2 in the past that had the perforations on the top part and not the best for inclement weather.

I buy Merrell shoes because they carry a 10 1/2 shoe size. I'm always happy with the fit.

saucony running shoes...narrow (snug) at the heel and wide at the front of the shoe. comfortable

Size down on this shoe, and be prepared to attach heel grips if you have narrow heel. But...very convenient to slip off and on and looks great.

Love these Merrells. Great for walking. I ordered a half size up to be able to wear them with mid to heavy socks but can wear these with no socks too.

I have worn this shoes for several years. Because I have kept all the shoe boxes what I have noticed is that the name of this same style has changed over time but I am very pleased that the shoe itself remains the same. I will continue to purchase and enjoy this style for many more years.

Fit and Size were true. I have worn Merrell shoes for years and happy your company continues to stock the shoes I prefer. They are the perfect casual shoe for my needs.

I've worn these almost constantly since trying them on. I'd been looking for shoes to help control the ankle pronation in my R foot - After awhile it still becomes pronounced. Do you have a suggestion ? maybe an inner heel support ? or . . ? Will they stretch out with socks come fall temperatures ?
I've copied the 'brochure' that came with them, and sent it to others ~ along with pics of these shoes. You may find more customers, not that you need them ~~
Also, I have a friend with very excessively narrow feet - do you have something she might look at, size 9.5 also ? Her feet used to be flat.
Thank you !

The size and fit were perfect. The leather was nice and soft. I love wearing these so much that they are the third pair of Encore Novas that I have bought. They are super-comfortable and have good support. They are my "go-to" shoes for quick trips out of the house. I can just slip them on and slip them off again in no time. They are the most convenient shoes I own. Besides quick trips, they are great for walking. And they look good with slacks and jeans, but they are definitely not glamorous. The leather always looks really nice. I will certainly buy another pair when these wear out.

I put my feet into these shoes and it was like coming home. A perfect fit immediately. No need to break them in.

I have bought these forever so I always have one set of "dress black clogs" and another older set of "working black clogs" and am never without two pairs. Great for shopping, walking miles, gardening chores, and looking good without being super dressy. So comfortable with wool or no socks, too!
