I purchased this pair of Merrels because the two pairs of Merrels I have been wearing for the dozen years were starting to look pretty ratty. I ordered size 10. I have always worh 9-1/2D or 10C. They are a little snug but hopefully they will break in. They look good so I wear them for more formal occasions.

I bought these shoes as an everyday walking shoe. The back of the shoe has cardboard that is now pushing through the material. I have had them for one year and 6 months so I take that into consideration with the rating. Also, for only wearing it around town these shoes get dirty quick. I think I will try a different shoe next time

Snug fit makes for secure ankle support but needs thin tight socks. Hard to slip on without having socks choke your toes because of the non-tongued sleeve type design.! Fall weather I just wear without socks hoping they loosen up some by Summer in order to get back into them with socks on comfortably. They don't come in wide. I usually like to order wide for roomier comfort in my shoes.

The shoe is really nice and comfortable. The only difference between this pair and my previous pair as the with of the tread under the heal is more narrow and I have twisted at my ankle twice already so you need to be careful.

Excellent hiking/walking shoe, and comfortable right out of the box, a trait of all the Merrells that I have owned. I broke them in while hiking in Iceland and Norway and never had any problem with pressure points or hot spots. I have deducted one star for lateral stability, due to a tendency to roll to the side which I noticed while hiking through a scree field, but in fairness that type of use would be better suited for a full boot. Would definitely buy again.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)

Poor SupportGreat Support
When first putting them on, I thought the size was a half size small. Turns out I just never had shoes that fit that closely around the ankle. Once my feet were in, they were comfortably roomy, but not large. I have gone on a number of walk-hikes with my pup and the Merrell's have been comfortable walking, running through the dunes, and scrabbling through gullies along the coastal trail with her. The shoes have performed well and remained comfortable for hours.

My last pair of Chameleons, I've taken to hiking in Iceland, 80 mile hike in Scotland, countless miles in Texas. I just wished they were made back here in the USA.

I'm still breaking these shoes in however, I can offer the following positives: - comfortable on rough terrain, on project sites and over city hikes - the soles feel resilient - uppers are fairly sturdy whilst retaining some flexibility; I like the bungy laces Only real negative is they are a bit of a struggle to pull on.

Do not wear them on wet surfaces. Wore them to Disneyland Resort for a big family vacation during a mild rain and slipped and fell on my rear twice in front of my grandkiddoes. After bragging for years about my Merrell shoes I am pretty pretty disappointed.

Been buying each version of these shoes and these are more like the Chameleon 6 that I love. Very happy with this purchase and would buy again.

It was nearly perfect except for the pull lace which was too long and would get caught on things like my emergency brake pedal.

Soles a little slick when walking on wet blacktop. Was walking on grade that was wet from rain when I suddenly slipped and about fell. Great shoes when not walking on wet pavement.

Size is accurate. The padding is not sufficient for me so I purchased a 3rd party foot souls and it made a big difference.

This is my second pair. Upon arrival I remove the stretch laces put in regular non stretch ones and reach for the shoe horn which these shoes should come with. These shoes are decent trail shoes with a very stiff heal counter that keeps my shaky left ankle in line.

Great fit, but a little noisy. The Chameleon 8 stretch has quick lace up as a slip on that adjusts for a snug fit. They are comfortable for all-day wear. Sometimes they sqeak and sound like your stepping on water.

nice looking and comfortable but the bungee system was hard for me to make them release to get off my feet almost got a knife to cut the strings. the Vibram bottoms are great I walk through a paved lot to get into work then i am on cement all day and when it rains my feet never slip. love this color too.

Had a pair of Chameleon 3 stretches for years living in TX. Loved them. Now in CO, I've had the 8s for 6 weeks, hiking/walking 4-7 miles/day. Still incredibly comfortable. Knocking off a star for the lace system, though: Both broke (one in the first 2 weeks). The dog doesn't care, but makes them look a bit ratty. I'd recommend for spring/summer/fall light hiking and walking. But minuscule ankle support and lack of insulation means I'll be putting them away by Oct.
