Customer Reviews Merrell Alpine Sneaker

I put in several miles walking all over Italy. The shoe is extremely comfortable for urban wear but not what I would wear except on easy gravel trails. These are not mountain shoes. Durability remains to be seen but they are now my comfort shoe for knocking around.

These shoes are almost perfect. The look is so cool, especially with the multi-color. I get compliments all the time and my shoes - yes, just my feet and shoes - were actually featured in a promo video! They are very comfy and true to size. The uppers just feel so comfortable too. Here are the rubs for me. There's only two, but one is pretty big. They are useless on anything wet. I've "ice skated" in parking lots and even on wet grass. Please change the sole on these shoes! They're so awesome, otherwise. The heel could be wider. I've nearly twisted my ankle in these a few times. You know that feeling of your ankle going straight sideways from lack of balance... I own several pairs of Merrells and love 'em. These could be legendary.

I bought these for the colour(s). Lol. Very comfortable shoes, I wear them a lot. My feet are relatively cool even in these hot days. I'm taking away one star because the pull loop on one shoe has been attached differently than the other. Just a cosmetic thing.

Totally happy with the appearance, fit, and comfort. When it's nice and dry outside, no worries, but if it's wet outside, that's where the soles fail me. They're very slippery, more so than any other shoe I've owned. There are a few times where I've almost slipped and fell for example on wet sidewalks during the rain. Happy otherwise.

Comfy sneakers that are great for running around or on the trail.

Shoes work great for me, daily fast walker, plus look great with jeans. BUT I ordered black. NOT black not even close indigo would be the farthest stretch to black. But they feel and look good!

I have used these as my primary sneakers for the past year. They've held up decently well, considering that I go hard on my shoes and didn't rotate between pairs to help extend their life. They're comfy even when standing all day, and breathe fairly well. My critique definitely lies in the material. You can see in my photos that there are tears in the fabric on the outer edge as well as significant wear in the heel cup on the inside of the shoe. These tears happened within 3 months despite taking care to tie my shoes snugly to prevent excessive rubbing. Despite the wear, I would probably purchase these shoes again if they made one change - the white footbed exterior gets really dirty and is impossible to clean due to the texture of the rubber. Unfortunately, most of their color offerings come with the white wrapping. If you do any sort of dirty work, be warned that the mud won't come off. I hope they offer more black soles in the future!

I've had these shoes for about a month now and they don't seem as high quality as other shoes from Merrell. The colors are really fun though and I enjoy wearing them around town, though I wouldn't use them for a hike or any outdoor activities. The fit seems extra narrow to me, also.

Not the most comfortable pair of shoes that I own but the fit, color and style is awesome. I get compliments all the time about how cute they are.

Nice and light, but way too narrow for my feet. Just a heads up.

The Alpine sneaker offer style and comfort, a supportive shoe ready for a light hike or running errand around town. My only gripe is the rubber sole is super slippery on wet surfaces.

Great shoe but not enough breathable. They are very warm.

Stylish sneaker. Look great, feel great. Wish the heal to toe drop was a bit less, but still happy with these kicks overall

Looks great! Super comfortable. Good construction. Soles are deadly in snow/mud.

Very light. Confortable. Nice grip from the soles.

Great shoe little on the narrow side for Merrill. I know my size and enjoy knowing that's what I will get ordering.

Good quality shoes that held up well and looked good for the duration of their life. The Alpines provided what I've come to expect from Merrell and why I now buy Merrell over brands.

I love how these look. I get compliments on them almost daily. They are pretty comfortable as well. My only complaints about them are as follows: They aren't very grippy in the wet, despite their aggressive tread pattern. Also, some of the stitching has started to come loos on one of mine. I wouldn't normally complain about this, but I've only had them for a few weeks.

Nice looking & comfortable street sneaker - very happy with it but would not try it for trail hiking. The fit is great but needed to exchange up a half size

I like these shoes because they're comfortable and look good, but the tread is kind of odd. Also, they are slightly insulated, which I didn't realize before ordering. Maybe they'll break in and get cooler over time, but currently they're a bit too warm for summer use.

These shoes are great for hanging out and a little walking or standing. They are a little big for me, would have liked a 6.5 size.

Love the sporty, non bulky design. It does seem to run small. I'm keeping the shoe and will try thinner, light weight socks.

The Alpine sneaker was just what I was looking for; namely, a good shoe for walking around in the city while on vacation. Very comfortable, required very little breaking in. The sole is pretty flexible, so I would not recommend it for hiking. I have size 13 (men) feet, and the size 13 shoe fit well.
