They seem to run a bit big. I usually wear a size 6 but my foot kept slipping out of the shoe. I tried with socks and still slipped. I had to exchange for a 5.5.

It's comfortable and warm. It was very icy the day before Christmas & these shoes did not slip on my 5 front steps. But they have stretched and they run big my size sevens now fit like 71/2 so I would suggest ordering a half size smaller.

Great shoe to wear at work. I have to walk out in the elements when delivering curbside as well as walk my entire shift on concrete floors. My feet feel great and my legs never get tired. I do have to wear a slightly thicker sock so that the heel doesn't slip off when walking fast.

These are my third or fourth pair. This new version is much stiffer. They seem a little less padded. I would have preferred them the way they were

These shoes are the best!
Kept my feet warm & dry here in New England. By far the most comfortable on my heels. I suffer from planter facia and these merrils cradle your feet.
Going to by another pair!

The Trooper color is not what is advertised but they are still nice. The footbeds are really hard even with Shearling-lined COMFORTBASE ACTIVE contoured insole. The shearling is fake and flimsy, very thin. I'm not sure about these. I had to return the first pair as they were too large. The 1/2 size smaller fits perfectly. After reading other reviews I'm going to have to check to see if these squeak.

I love the look and feel of these. I read about the strong smell, but didn't think it'd be that bad- I was wrong. I've had then for a few weeks, and the smell is still overpowering!

I like everything about these except I wish that there was more arch support as I have a history of plantar fasciitis.

Couldn't really decide on three or four stars. I wanted as winter, slip on house shoes. They are warm and very supportive but the soles are not flexible (stiff) for walking around the house compared to an athletic shoe's comfort and support.

I needed a supportive hands-free slip on. I got it in this! It's very comfortable and supportive. I love that it comes in Wide. I had to stop buying Merrell some years back when they narrowed the slip on I liked. My only complaint is the the insole (is that the word?) slips around and inches out as I walk. Hmmmm. Should I glue it in?

Jury is still out. The soles are very tacky and when walking on pavement, I tripped on them and did a face plant, falling on both knees and giving myself a fat lip! Maybe they are more appropriate for snow and ice, and hope I am not digging out ice and snow from the bottom as they are open on the end. Normally wear an 8, ordered and fit a 7.5 size.

Overall I like the shoes but what I don't like is the horrible and strong smell. They are not true to size. I ordered a 71/2 but in this shoe I really need a size 7. I have owned a pair like this in the past and they lasted 16 years and without the smell.

Very comfy and cute. I got the red so I look a little like Santa's helper when I am wearing them. They are not as fluffy as I expected. Great for walking around in the house and around the block in my neighborhood.

Love these shoes. Only complaint is that the liner pulls out. Not sure why they aren't glued down.

The quality of this shoe has changed over the years. My first pairs had real shearling footbeds. The ones i just bought have footbed that are a mix of poly n ? I replaced footbeds w real wool shearling and they feel much better.

These are very nice shoes. I mistakenly ordered wrong size, so they are not that comfortable for me.

This would have been my fourth pair of Merrell shoes. I love these slip ons. But the sizing was really off with this pair. Too wide even though they were
a medium. They would slip badly on my heel. I returned them, no problem. Customer service is great.

Really like the style and fit. The insole is the worst ever! It scoots and twists so plan to replace it.

These are very warm, but, they do hurt my feet after wearing for a while. I don't feel there is much arch support, which I need.

Comfortable, warm, and easy to walk in. I live in Alaska and we have a lot of snow and ice. It would be really nice if the tread on the soles were more rugged to prevent slipperage.
