Customer Reviews Merrell Embark Lace

Favorites of all time! I like these so much. The wide fit me better, but medium is ok too.

Great sneaker! The support and comfort are just as described. I ordered the correct size based on people's reviews, opting for a wider fit and going up one size from my usual perfect fit. The wide size provided excellent comfort for all-day wear, preventing any tightness. The toe spacing rule was crucial for me, ensuring my toes didn't touch the front and avoiding discomfort or nail banging. The white sole may show some discoloration depending on where you run or walk, but the material itself did not discolor or snag. The back hook made it easy to slip on. Overall, an excellent choice of sneaker!

I purchased my sneakers for a trip to Italy. They are so comfortable and take me through the day of walking like a dream.

Got mine in the mail today. Like the look and ease of putting on, but way too big. I even ordered a 1/2 size smaller than my usual size. I usually wear a 10 wide, ordered a 9.5 wide. A 9 wide will hopefully fit. I have to return unfortunately and hope the next ones fit.

Very comfortable shoe. So lightweight it feels like wearing socks.

Have had these for approximately 6 months and am so happy with them that I am ordering a second pair I actually took ONLY these for a weekend trip and am sold! They can be slipped on/off without untying and the stability/support make a huge difference! Not to mention that they are such a cute shoe!

Embark lace sneaker in fuchsia. This shoe arrived today. It fits perfectly (size 6, my usual size), it slips on easily, and it is very comfortable. Love it! Oh, and the color is gorgeous.

I bought these shoes in hopes of comfort and support. These shoes cover it all and then some.

Felt comfortable immediately and I love the way the look. They are true to size, at least same as I wear in Addidas, Saucony, and Nikee

Chose these sneakers because of the color (teal/orange harbor gray?). The regular/medium width seems wider than usual (compared to Adidas), and not a snug as I'd like. Maybe because of the mesh design. Not as easy to slip on as I'd hoped. Overall, I like them though.

I suffer from lower back pain issues with bulging disk bone spurs and a deflating disk that has no relief. And to top it off I have bursitis in both hips. My husband bought me a pair of Merrill's for Christmas so when I'm driving home from work I could let my feet relax from my construction boots and boy did I fall in love my while on my feet all day cooking the big feast for our family. I am sold. Just received my now third pair of Merrill's today and went for the sneaker style so maybe I can start walking again for health and instantly I can feel relief in my lower back my feet are perfectly cupped and it's as if my hips realigned. The arch support and fit are perfect for my hobbit feet. I would highly recommend Merrill as a company to anyone and will be throwing out all other shoes this weekend and stick with the three pairs of Merrill's from this point on! Praying they make a work boot so I can toss the pair I use out and feel relief all day at work as well! Thank you!

Just received these last week. Love the look but heel is too big, no way to tighten. Now ordering in smaller size. Fingers crossed.

Love the lookhate the fit!! I have always wore a normal shoe and these are way too narrow.

Bought these for my cruise. Not great on a hike over rocky terrain as I felt everything under feet. Had to loosen shoe laces when my feet swelled which was annoying. If I didn't love the look and feel just walking around, probably would have returned them.

Comfortable shoe! Used on our road trip vacation traveling many miles and walking a bunch.

I just got my first pair of this style shoe and they are very comfortable. I love the way they look & they are easy to get on & off.

My expectations have been exceeded! My back does not hurt when I wear them. I like the mesh and sock like fit around the ankle. They are lightweight and very comfortable.

These sneakers are so comfortable especially for my flat feet.

First of all, these shoes are super cute. I REALLY wanted to keep them based on looks alone, but they were 1) too long 2) way too narrow and 3) very lightweight and unsupportive. My last pair of Merrell sneakers were a size 9 so I ordered the same size in the Embark, but they were definitely not sized the same. I have never had to order a wide shoe in my life, but I think with these I would need to. They were also AT LEAST a half size too big, maybe even a whole size. Also, the shoes just didn't feel like quality shoes that would hold up to a lot of wear. The material of the upper felt thin, and overall they were unsupportive. I wanted a second pair of sneakers that I could alternate with a competitor brand of running shoe, but these just didn't come close to the quality of my other ones, especially not for the price. I've already packed the shoes back up to return. If you're looking for some cute shoes strictly for looks, these might work if you order down a half size, but I wouldn't recommend for frequent wear if looking for comfort.
