Customer Reviews Merrell Embark Moc

My problem with Merrill shoes, is their sizing between different styles is way off. The first paid I bought fit perfectly, but the next 6 pair did not fit well at all.

Shoes just arrived. I am not even going to try them on. The color portrayed in the online photo is so far off the shoes I received. The actual color is light brown. Not tan. And the heel is burnt dark orange. Thankfully merrell has a great return policy / process.

I really wanted to like these. I bought them since they looked a little like and reminded me of the Recupe Lace shoes that I bought 3 pair of and have worn out. These are nowhere near as comfortable as the Recupe. There is almost no cushioning under the balls of my feet. After wearing for a couple of hours my feet hurt. I tried on the lace up version in a store in standard width (they didn't have the Moc), they were OK enough for me to order these but I went down a half size and ordered the wide width. They fit well but won't work due to the lack of cushioning. These will be returned. When I looked at these initially on the web site I did a chat session to try and find out the stack height. The chat person couldn't find that info anywhere. Please bring back the Recupe Lace!!

After 25 years of great shoes, these overpriced slip ons have no cushion. These are what you find at WallyWorld I have you competitors slide ons that are like a Rolls Royce.

I have had several similar Merrell shoes with soft top. (Like model J000599). All the prior shoes were designed for somewhat smaller volume so this shoe is not as snug as a soft top shoe should be. Also the inner sole design was much better where the J000599 felt like a glove, this one doesn't have sufficient arch support. I do like the Vibram out sole.

Shoe is not comfortable and does not fit true to size. This is surprising for a Merrell shoe, as I've owned several other pairs and have been extremely satisfied with each one.
