Customer Reviews Merrell Encore Ice 5

Squeaky out of the box. Thank goodness i read another review about this - otherwise I might just think it was bec they were new

Sadly not for me. After a few wearings, too flat (not enough heel), toenail bumping the toe case little too closely, I'd return them but the front actually look scuffed. Used looking after a few tryouts around the house.

I really wanted to love these shoes. I've worn the Encore Ice for decades because I loved the thick lamb fur lining that keeps my feet warm .Unfortunately that shoe seems to be gone. The fur lining is skimpy and almost missing around the top.

I have so many pairs of the older style, I live in these shoes all winter!! However the new style may look cute but are NOT an improvement. Horribly wide, the lack of arch support and thin soles make these an uncomfortable knockoff of the original, I may put in an arch support and reevaluate. Please bring back the older style I'd gladly may more if that was the consideration to cheapen the shoe.

No support or cushioning in the sole and way too wide.

Unfortunately I can't take inside liner out. I use orthotics and Encore 5 won't work. I turned around and purchased more Encore 4 from different company yesterday.

I too have purchased this shoe multiple times over the years and bought them in brown and black earlier this year. What was once the most comfortable shoe now lacks sufficient padding in the sole. It feels like a thin layer of material stuffed into a wooden shoe. So disappointed!

cute pink color but faux shearling lining so thin my heel hit the suede on back of shoe. Lack of arch support from previous model( few years ago) Maybe if you wore with a sock they would work better . Returned shoe

Size has definitely changed! Like style BUT not true to size as others from previous years. Recommend 1/2 down from original shoe size.

Been wearing these shoes for 15 years; last week I ordered 2 pairs & had to return them both. Not sure what changes they made to these shoes, but the shoes were too big & way to wide, I wear a medium width. Ordered the same size & width I've always worn, they always fit perfectly. I'm so disappointed that I had to return both pairs, used to be my favorite winter shoes. PLEASE return to making these shoes like they were 2 years ago; the "updates" have ruined a great shoe!
