Customer Reviews Merrell Speed Solo Mid WP

I love these! I wanted something a little more casual for everyday, but with some hiking capabilities & waterproofing for my upcoming Hawaii venture. These fit the qualifiers perfectly. I have wide feet to take into account & saw they recommended going up a size. I went a half size up from my normal & they fit okay, though they're a bit snug for comfort if I wear thick socks. This works for me, since I'll be utilizing them for warmer weather activities. I'd definitely recommend going up a whole size if using for cold weather & have wider feet. As for durability, I really do hope these last at least a few years. The desert I live in eats soles up & I question the longevity of many shoes out here.

I like the style. It fits me well. Very comfortable to wear.

I bought these for a trip to Acadia, and even though they arrived quickly, I didn't order them with enough time to break them in at all. The first time I wore them was on a very wet and steep trail. I then wore them again the next day and had no issues either day. They were incredibly comfortable and waterproof. I didn't submerge them completely, but I did walk through a shallow streams. They also look cool; I got a lot of compliments on them.

Love speed solo mid waterproof went on hiking trip wildcatters trail in Crandall,Texas 4 hrs i done it in 2hrs I will buy another pair soon thank uou

Love these hiking shoes. I have other Merrell hiking shoes but desperately needed the mid rise as I kept rolling my ankle on hikes. I've done a few hikes in them now and have not rolled ankle once! Also, the foam piece on the tongue really isn't noticeable and doesn't look "off" to me. Highly recommend them!

My girlfriend loved them right out of the box. Great quality, comfort, and no need to break in. Took them right away to Mt. Reinier, Olympic National Park, the North Cascades and more, and the boots were perfect for it all!

They were really good for hiking the Yellowstone however I bought a 9 and they were so to small. I've never had to wear a 10 in my life in any shoe. So they ended up hurting my feeting and bruising my toe nails to the point of purple. I think if they would have fit they would've been great

I love these boots. My husband has been wearing Merrill's for years and I haven't just because I have never liked the look of them. These look great (I love the color way) and they are so comfortable. I bought them for hiking and camping. I have now worn them to hike, camp, to work, and to pottery classMy only critique would be the exposed foam on the tongue does look unfinished. However it doesn't bother me all that much

Wore these on an 11 mile hike in the Rockies, on a rainy day and they were awesome! My feet didn't get wet and were comfortable during some rocky paths. Would highly recommend for novice hikers!

These were exactly what I was looking for in a hiking shoe. Lightweight and comfortable. The waterproof was a bonus!

Bought these for an upcoming trip to Utah and didn't attempt to break them in beforehand as per other reviewers who said you didn't need to. Hiked over 10 miles between 2 days with absolutely no pain or blisters! And I'm someone who has a ton of foot/ankle problems to the point where I get prescription orthotic insoles but I used the insoles these boots came with which were absolutely pain free for my ankles and arches. I can't comment on if they're truly waterproof or not since I haven't worn them in those conditions yet, but I'm hoping they are. Also I love the colors of the boots and how they look a bit cuter than traditional hiking boots do!

Went to Yosemite with family. Everyone agreed that my hiking boots were the best!

I work outdoors and walk tens of thousands of steps every day in every possible type of weather. I've tried boots from several other brands/stores, and finally, after hearing me repeatedly complain about said failed footwear, my brother recommended Merrell. I've only been wearing them for a few weeks, and while my feet have been delightfully dry (yes, they're 100% waterproof even in standing water), I'm wary about whether or not they will last as another brand or two also managed to keep themselves together for a few short months before disintegrating miserably and proving themselves not worth my money. So, while I'm cautiously optimistic that my Merrells will outlast their competitors, I can confidently say that these are unequivocally the most lightweight, comfy and waterproof boot I have tried. Didn't even give me blisters as they broke in! All around, I'm in love with the boots and am just desperately hoping their longevity is as impressive as their first impression.

Very comfortable yet it supportive; purchased after a serious ankle sprain for walking trails.

I've taken these boots on multiple 10+ mile hikes now and can say I absolutely love them. They're very comfortable in steep terrain or for long scrambles. I've worn them in snow, rain, and hail and can say they're definitely waterproof! Everyone is different when it comes to boots but Ive had Merrell hiking shoes and sandals and I know Merrells fit my feet well. These boots were no exception.

They were a gift for my daughter, she was so excited!

Ive never gone hiking a day in my life, I bought these for a trip to the smoky mountains and they are incredible. My feet did not hurt once, they had great ankle support and super cute. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE!

Great fit, waterproof and goid grip on slippery trails.

These boots are the best! I hiked 12 miles in one day and my feet barely hurt.

I took these to Red Rock Canyon. They gripped the rock and were quite comfortable. The tongue seemed to be 'unfinished' like what others commented. I think that might just be the design. It doesn't bother me & maybe it makes the boot more breathable? All in all I'll keep them for future hiking trips.

I bought these earlier in the year. Originally thought I liked them but after a few hikes in them I would not repurchase. The toe box is quite narrow and my toes hurt after hikes. Will end up donating them. I ordered a half size up and they still feel tight in my toes - would recommend ordering a full size up if you purchase them. The waterproof is great and overall comfortable if youre not hiking in them. PLEASE bring back the chameleon 7 mid boot.
