Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Breeze 5

Have this same shoe in black from 8 years ago. The sizing is different my old o es were a 71/2. Bought an 81//. Most problematic was that the shoes squeaked Returned them

These shoes are lower quality than the Merrill's I recall. I ordered them to wear around the house and manage plantar fasciitis. They look just like the photos and just as I expected. It's the ride that is missing the mark. There is not a great arch support. I decided to invest in this shoe expecting good support, and ultimately ended up buying an insert that costs 2/3 of the cost, so now they are really expensive. After 2 weeks of wear they are very loud and constantly squeaking. I ordered the wide and , they are good in my toe box but tight on my foot at the opening and the top of my foot gets sore. I bought them to help my sore feet feel better. Next time I won't shop online and I will likely try another brand.

Too soft. No support. Very uncomfortable. Just not as good as Nova 4...

Very disappointed with these shoes. There is no support in them

The Encore Breeze 5 is far inferior to the Encore Breeze 4

I've had several pairs in the past, size 9. These new brands are way to big so I had to return them.

Odd feel to these shoes. They feel cheap. Spongy, poor arch support, and my feet have a lot of wiggle room instead of feeling secure. I ordered an 8 wide. I always wear an 8 wide in Merrell. The fabric feels unsubstantial. The upper padding feels super cheap. Overall, my impression is that this is a cheaply made shoe that will not last long. The Merrell boot I bought along with these does not have the same quality feel as the Merrell boots did in the past. Supply chain issues? Covid? I am tired of excuses. Make the same excellent shoe you have always made in the past, or I am out. I am currently looking at other, but pricier brands to try. I'd rather pay for quality than something that ruins my hike.

There is a small stain on the top of the right shoe near the toe. It must have been returned by someone else before me.

I’ve worn Merrell shoes for 30 years. Love this shoe, but I do order directly from Merrell most of the time.

These left my joints hurting. I had worn similar Merrell's beforethey were my "go to" shoe. I wore them at home, work, to church; you name it, I was wearing these shoes. But the new pair I bought within the past month have left my knees and even my hip feeling sore. Sorry; it's probably just me.

I would never purchase this shoe again. Not comfortable and it feels like it's going to fall off as I walk. I'm really disappointed.

I WAS going to buy -- as I have had 5 or 6 pair of this style slip-on

I did not take my Merrill's anywhere. I returned them because you changed the way this slip on style fits. I was looking forward to buy another of the same shoe that I presently own. A complete failure.

not happy with the change back of the clog not firm after 15 years I am going to change
