Bought these for my son for a 9-day hiking trip and didn't hear a single complaint about his feet! I also bought the Moab Low A/C Waterproof shoes to try which I honestly liked the look of better, but we decided to go with these because they were more flexible and had more give to them. I think that is a big part of why he didn't have any trouble. Highly recommend!

We purchased these for my son who tends to be really hard on his shoes. So far they have held up and seem like they will last the summer. He is very happy with them and says they are comfortable. They're also easy for him to get on and off by himself with the Velcro closures. Very pleased with these shoes!

We have been ordering this exact pair of shoes for the past two years for my son. We just increase in size as he outgrows them. He is super picky about shoes but these are great for everyday and also perfect for hiking adventures. He is also really tough on shoes and these wear well. We loved them so much that we even started ordering them for our daughter, and they have quickly become her favorites also. They don't rub or chafe, they are easy on, and hard to wear out.
I'd also recommend:
Toms, Saucony, New Balance

Merrell is my favorite brand of shoe to wear, so I thought, "why not get my active little boy a pair?" The size was true. The durability is evident in the form and tread. And, they are easy for my son to put on all by himself. Reasonably priced for the quality as well. We'll be getting more kids shoes from Merrell, for sure.

My six year old grandson picked these from five other pair, including Merrill’s , Vans, etc because of comfort. I liked them because they seem rugged and are breathable. He just totally used up a pair of Keens Kootenay which he wore every day for a year and a half. Those gave out first in the lining and inside sole. These trail chasers are are breathable and won’t mind wet days. I only had a few days visit to try sizes and brands and Zappos speedy delivery, return, and second delivery for correct size all went smoothly within a few days. Love the customer service. Really liked these shoes for an active little boy.

This is the second pair of Merrell I've bought for my son. He loves this style. There comfortable, easy on/off, and have some grip. They do seem to run a half size larger. I hope they don't discontinue these any time soon.

Unless my son's foot has grown a full size in a month, this shoe fits a little small. But it's as sturdy and comfortable for him as always. This is a good style for a kid with a narrow foot.

The sizing seemed a bit off. My 8 year old is a size 3 in all his other shoes, yet for this shoe, he fit a 2.5. Aside from the sizing, these are great shoes. They're light and yet very durable.

After throwing away several pairs of shoes that I have bought my daughter, I finally decided to invest in a pair of Merrell's! I love them for myself and they last a long time so I was hoping the same for my daughter. She put them on right away and hasn't taken them off since. 6 months later they still don't look roughed up, I am certain these are shoes I will be donating once she grows out of them, and I will be buying more! It is not often I align myself with a brand, but this brand I certainly will! She uses these for regular school days, as well as girls on the run practice, and playing in the woods!

He is as tough on shoes as can be and these are holding up great. Pretty much the only shoes he has never complained as hurting his feet.

We have a hard time finding a shoe that will last longer than 1 month with our sons rough play (swings and scooter dragging his feet) These lasted a whole school year and then some! We also love the Velcro option that is water proof, because he has fine motor issues... he can put these on by himself!! He loves them and refuses to wear any other shoe. Now we have a new color this year :) they are stylish enough for my 5th grader! Thank you!!

This is the second pair of these shoes we have bought for our son. Got the orange color this time in the next size up. He loves them! The last pair, the light blue and green, he has worn for over a year. These are his only daily wear shoes. They have held up very well. There are wear spots around the top of the shoe. The velcro has held up well. He can still wear his old pair, his feet are just getting big. 1 year in a pair of shoes for a 4 year old is fantastic!! We will keep investing in good quality for our guy! Highly recommend!

Our 2nd grade grandson picked out his favorite color and loves his new sneakers. They fit perfectly and are comfortable, secure, and have a great tread for running and playing outside.

I live in Austin, TX and I bought some Merrell Moab hiking boots for my mother-in-law online (she lives in Arkansas). I accidentally ordered shoes that were too big for her. My mother-in-law has very small feet and needed children's shoes. She spoke to a Merrell representative to return the Moabs. The rep was extremely helpful and helped my mother-in-law pick out the perfect size Trail Runners...tricky considering the adult women's to boys' size comversion. My mother-in-law is very, very happy with the fit, light weight, traction and breathability.

My kid is so rough on her shoes. So at the beginning of the school year it's a lot of shopping for shoes that are versatile yet also really stand up to anything. Have not tried these shoes in rain or snow but we're going to. They are also great for PE and hiking. We got her the multi color shoe with gray and teal.

My daughter likes to hike, she goes through shoes pretty quickly; these always seem to stand up to a beating. Great colors and materials as well.
