Glad I bought them!
You know how they say never to use brand new shoes on a long hike? Well, that's exactly what I did, and thanks to these shoes, I don't regret it. They are super comfortable, as if I had been using them for ages. I don't usually wear hiking shoes, so I find them heavier than running shoes (of course), yet it doesn't bother me at all. I have had them for 4 months now, and I have done several long hikes (+15km). I've hiked at the beach, on grass, and on concrete, and they performed perfectly in all conditions. Would gladly buy them again, but so far, they still look like new.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable, durable all-terrain footwear
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2024
Size: 8.5 WideColor: EarthVerified Purchase
When I first put them on I thought they were heavy because for many years I made do with lightweight walking tennis shoes. Then one day I slipped on a wet surface and injured myself. I sought a safer shoe. I came across these the way everybody does now, via the Internet. More to the point, in an hour or less I realized that these were gloriously comfortable shoes and fit perfectly snug. Since then I've walked hundreds of miles wearing them and they continue to impress me with their comfort. I've worn them to walk country trails, deserts, rain forests, mountain sides, and of course, sidewalks. They're the "real deal" for all-occasion footwear (maybe not dress up affairs but I digress). Their laces are extremely durable, not likely to ever snap. At the top of the rear there's a finger loop which enhances ease of putting them on. My feet never sweat in them, even in sweltering heat. They are exceptionally durable and after 18 months I decided to write my review to praise them for the recognition deserved. I highly recommend this brand.

After years of buying inferior footwear, I feel that I have found "A Great Shoe".
I ordered a pair of 9W and the fit is awesome. With other brands, I had to settle for 9.5's to get the width I need because many shoe companies don't bother with wide sizes. The design and construction of these Merrell's is perfect. No wonky stiching, glue slop, etc.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good
Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2023
Verified Purchase
Got these on a sale and have hiked about 50 or so miles thus far.
I ordered a half size up and they fit really well.

Pros: Great fit
Soles are rigid and durable. I hike over jagged rocks frequently and the sole protects your feet well.

Cons: they are a bit heavy. They are way thicker and chunkier than the photos will portray. This can add some protection however. So not all bad.

So so: Comfort. I’d say by about by mile 6 my feet are about done and need a break. This could be the weight or the insole I’m not sure. But they aren’t amazing for comfort. Maybe just ok. Good for shorter day hikes I’d say.

The sole alone is really worth the purchase. Despite a couple drawbacks.

I love these shoes, but be aware of Your Top Fitness that will send you the wrong items repeatedly. I will be curtailing my amazon shopping going forward because of the experience I had over this debacle.
