This is my third pair of the Encore Ice clogs and they are slightly bigger than my two older pairs. It just means I need to wear thicker socks.

I really like my Encore Ice 4 Wide Width mocs! They are nice looking with the stitching on the outside and warm and comfy with the fur lined feature!

Comfortable footwear. A little more of an outside shoe than an inside slipper. This happens when shopping online. Would have preferred the shoe to stay more firmly on the foot when climbing small hills or staircases, but the overall feel and fit is good. One glance verifies these are consistent with the renowned build quality Merrell has built its reputation on.

Love these shoes. They do however run a little large. Normal size is 7 1/2. 7 is too small and 7 1/2 is a little loose.

This has got to be one of the comfiest styles around. The problem with this particular pair of shoes is that the part of the shoe that surrounds the foot (closest to the ankle) is looser than the other pairs of Merrell Encore Ice that I have-- It is rather like walking in slippers that have stretched out.

I love, love love sliding my feet into these shoes. The fit is spot on so it's super comfortable. The tread does the trick on snowy icy mornings. The Encore Ice is my go-to shoe for walking the dog when I don't need a full on boot. My only complaint is that the pig suede doesn't wear as well as I expected. My Encores have only gone through one season but they are really scuffed. Using a suede brush helps but not much. I would say the problem was me but I've got a 15-year old pair of Lands End Suede Comfort Mocs that look barely worn and until I got the Encores they were in heavy use. That said, the LE mocs are now in the back of the closet and my scruffy Encores are the ones getting outside. Looks aren't everything. :-)

Usually my size is 9.5. Needed a 9 in this shoe. So I reordered. The larger size had more consistent, higher quality suede. I purchased two size 9's because the first had inferior suede. The suede on the second size 9 was not equivalent to the 9.5 shoe. Regardless, I like this shoe. It's comfortable, easy to slip on and the inside is warm and soft. I purchased this same shoe about 8 years ago. So despite the quality of the suede it was worthwhile purchasing a new pair.

These are cozy and comfortable. I love the wide toe box & the higher heel that keeps these securely on your feet (unlike a normal mule or clog. The fake fleece inserts are crap & became bumpy and uncomfortable after about 2 weeks. The solution was to yank those out and replace them with an innersole. Overall very happy with these Merrells.

Why don't you make more of these in size 10.5? I usually bought the encore chill stitch in size 11, but in the ''ice" , 10.5 is just fine. Still a bit loose, but comfy. I'm in Poland now and should have bought an extra pair with me. The grey ones get a lot of looks from bypasses. You can't find such comfy shoes in my size as Merrells here! The shearling lined clogs with the famous Merrell base are world class unique! Style has deteriorated, but I still love Merrells!

My normal size is 9 or 40. Sizing depends on socks. My first pair bought in 2008 was size 8.5. I didn't wear socks with them. They were great shoes.These red clogs which I got recently are size 9. They do seem a little long in the toe area, almost like a 9.5 but not so much that they are too loose. the arch fits my foot well. I can wear them with or without socks. The fleece is not quite as thick as the older version. I will say that $120 is cheaper than what they cost in 2008 given inflation. If I were to pay what I paid back then, they would cost $142 today. These I got on sale and am very satisfied with the cost of the shoe. Even $120 would be worth it because I don't know if any company produces a shoe like Merrill. These are great for going out for the mail, taking the dog for a short walk or anytime you want to go out but don't want to be bothered putting on socks and boots. I have even walked on icy sidewalks and appreciate the grippy, and stable sole. That's one thing that hasn't changed. They are also very warm with or without socks (except for the exposed heel). If the fur gets matted down with time and the fit changes, then I will consider getting an 8.5 next time.

I love these shoes, except for one annoying thing. Why are the soles removable? They come out and have to be put back in every single time. Why would anyone want to take out the soft soles? Other than that, they are great.

I have bought Merrell shoes for years, usually encore breeze or the encore leather ones. This is my first encore ice. They have very good arch support, but the padding on the insoles are pretty thin. I added a thin insole under their insole, and it makes them more comfortable. I bought these for house shoes. Very expensive house shoes, but I need arch support. I've tried so many other brands for house shoes, but the arch support is lacking. These are comfortable with or without socks.

I bought these and totally fell in love with them. I wore them all the time and found that (for me) the hardness of the sole made my shins hurt. I will buy some gel insoles to fix that. I do love them.

Excellent slip on boot for the cold. Comfortable and roomy however, I agree with other reviewers, that the heel is wide.

These shoes do not fit like the pair I bought last year. They are much wider and my foot slides around. However, wearing a pair of heavy socks helps, but they still feel big. Otherwise they are warm and comfortable, almost like slippers. I never get tired of wearing them.

The shoes are very comfortable, look great, and could be the perfect shoes if not for the fact that every time I remove my foot, the insert comes out.

I love these shoes and am on my 3rd pair. Primarily wear as slippers around the house. I have noticed in all 3 pairs that the liners become unglued and are very difficult to adhere properly. I see in other reviews this is a common problem. The black ones also run about half a size too big. Did not experience this in the gray or khaki ones. Awesome shoes, hopefully Merrell can fix the liner problem!

These slides are fabulous but they do run big. I have two other pairs and an 8 was perfect. Now, it was large and wider than before. Oder two sizes.

I tried a few slippers. I wear 10.5 if I can find a shoe with that size. Despite the reviews, I ordered 10.5, and the reviewers were right, they were too big. Back they went for the 10. Perfect. I have a AA/Narrow foot, the width was as close to a Narrow as you can get in a Medium shoe. I wear with a lite sock. They are warm in my WY winters. Thank you to Zappos for all the back and forth.

I have a pair of Encore Ice, which I have had forever. I love them but they are pretty beat up looking but fit great and ar comfortable. So I ordered the 4’s and they do fit loose but I can wear thicker socks and they’ll be ok. I can’t order a smaller size since I wear a 5. Just love them for around the house and taking the dog out.

I have purchased 4 pair of Encore Ice shoes over the years! I have always loved them and rated them 5+! They fit my feet like a glove - and I have horrible feet. I would get compliments about how attractive and comfortable they looked. However, Merrell modified the style slightly and they don't fit as well. They don't feel as supportive.as the previous "model". They are still "good", but not "excellent". I am hoping that other customers will notice the difference and Merrell will revert back to the old style. The new model is true to size; I used to get 1/2 bigger with the former model .

I received these shoes as a Christmas gift and I really love these shoes! Every pair I own are so comfortable and true to fit. My husband swears by Merrill. He will NOT wear anything else, even has our son addicted. He has bought me several different styles and for some reason I have a problem with the insole of the right foot every time. I've always contacted Merrill and they' send new insoles but it's becoming a hassle. I like that they're furry and they keep my feet warm but I'm afraid that they want have another style of furry insoles. I'm giving 4 stars only because of the issue with the insoles every time.
