I love these shoes! Great summer shoes that breathe well and yet keep dirt out. They are super comfortable without socks. So much so that I have yet to wear them with socks (microban protection really works). The look nice also. The accent color reminds me of Asolo's Fugitive GTX (great hiking boots). The price is steep, but these are a great all purpose shoe and not just for the water.

These shoes are cool on multiple levels (color and looks), but it's hit and miss. I love FiveFingers, and bought these based on their outer sole (razor siped Vibram). These are my parkour shoes, and they're wicked. I'd like a little more flex, but they're breaking in awesomely, and the grip... let's just say stealth rubber has nothing on these. These fit wide, but I have a problem with narrow shoes (Pumas, Converse, etc.), so these are awesome for me, and they're very conforming to your foot. The material is very 'airy' so that's hit and miss depending on the season. I don't boat, I run on walls and rooftops with these, so keep that in mind, and I adore these so far.

I purchased these shoes for my 40 year old son for a camping trip to the Lake Superior area. We spent a week hiking, biking,and kayaking. His new shoes were very comfortable and fit perfect. He just loved them. I have had the same shoe for about 3 years and have had no problems. I will only buy Merrell and only at Zappos because of service and shipping. Thanks.

Best sneakers I have ever owned. Bought them to use at the gym, but now find myself wearing them driving and to casual days at work.Very comfortable, breathes really well.They came a bit larger than I anticipated though.

Light comfortable shoe with minimal support. Kind of like an aqua sock with heel support attached to a vibram sole. Almost like being barefoot. Put on some trail running shoes the other day and they felt like bricks compared to these. Highly recommend as long as you don\'t need extra support.

I purchased these shoes because I work on a boat for approximately 30 hours a week. These shoes were perfect for the job. They aren't filled with a ton of fabric, so when they get wet they don't soak up so much water that it feels like you have a brick on each foot. Also, the Vibram outer sole has great traction on slippery boat surfaces. I wear short, thin athletic socks with these shoes. You have to make sure your socks cover the back of your ankle from the shoe, otherwise the shoe will rub against it. All in all, these are great shoes!

These shoes are good for summer hiking, in wet or dry conditions. However, these are not good shoes to wear if you are hiking on sand. The sand gets into the shoe through all the holes in the fabric, making them uncomfortable. My only other small complaint is that the tongue of the shoe feels like it could be longer/taller.

Let's just say these shoes are amazing. I haven't had the chance really give them a good test but i have worn them around town and done a little running around in them and they are way comfortable. I will be wearing them twice this month for a real test. 1st in the Narrows in Zion National park and Also the Subway. I can't wait. I have high hopes for these shoes and don't for see any issues. Zappos was great to work with and great, fast free shipping. No complaints!

Wow! Super comfortable right out of the box. These shoes are ideal for hiking where you are likely to get your feet wet at the same time. They are also great for just walking around in a hot climate, where you want your feet to breathe.I wear between a 9 and 9.5 and ordered the 9.5. I'm glad I did. Order up in size and you won't be disappointed.

I purchased these shoes for use in my job of sport fishing. They fit well and are super light. The biggest feature is they dry quickly so I'm not wearing wet shoes on a cold morning. I highly recommend these shoes.

I haven't field tested these yet but they are a high quality water shoe. They have a hard sole for stepping on rocks and climbing around. They also have sort of double netting which is nice to keep twigs and little pebbles out of your shoe. I bought the Miapo too; these were much better quality sent the Miapo back.

Great shoes! I went with the Dusty Olive version; the Brindle came in looking way lighter than the pictures show. They look and feel like running shoes, and they\'re extremely versatile. I took them on a hiking and rafting trip in West Virginia, and I used them in whitewater and on every trail. They held up perfectly. However, if you like to keep your feet dry, these aren\'t the shoes for you. They\'re very permeable--the bottoms are actually perforated in the wavy pattern of boat shoe soles--and the insides of the shoes are mostly neoprene. They\'re best worn with bare feet or with dry-fit style socks. I didn\'t have any problems with traction either; they\'re no different than a regular running shoe in that regard.

I love these shoes, they are lightweight and have great traction. The neoprene uppers are great. I do a lot of hiking/fishing in the water and these are the best shoes I have found for that task. Very easy to clean as well.

I love these shoes. I bought them in Olive. They are perfect for summer. I can wear them without socks all day. And they look great.

Light weight, ventilated. Not as large and bulky looking as a typical athletic shoe. Forms to the shape of your foot. I cut the pull rings off the back of mine.

Merrell makes really nice shoes. They are comfortable out of the box and the material allows your feet to breathe. I especially like their color sense. I am tired of drab solid color sneakers. I like the orange and the soft greys and blues. I will buy this brand again for sure.

I have nerve damage in my leg from a surfing accident, and have found Merell\'s to be the best shoe for elevating severe pain, whether walking miles or just around my town, I were mine almost daily. I keep several pairs on hand. \r\n\r\n I purchase all my shoes from Zappo\'s, excellent customer service from order to follow up. You cant buy from another retailer, locally or online.\r\n\r\nSincerely\r\n\r\nC H Davidge\r\n

This shoe is like the service I have been receiving for many years now from Zappos. I have a size 15 and I have had the most accommodating service you could ever ask for from Zappos. This is far better than any store or other web site you could go to. The people are friendly and courteous and very accommodating. I am just retired from the US Army Special Forces and I have been all over the world and Zappos has been there all the way all the time 24/7, no questions asked and if you show them your loyalty they will return the loyalty by making you a VIP member (its worth it). I am an outdoor enthusiast who understands the need to take care of the DOGS because they take you everywhere. I will continue to, as long as Zappos is around to use their spectacular service. Thanks Zappos team. An American Patriot.

What can I say? They are fantastic! I bought them because as a water shoe the venting is better than a closed shoe. I broke them in walking Disney World, Universal Studios and Sea World (lots of walking). They are light, comfortable and don't have any of those weird color combinations. The best proof was that I never got a blister from them. The only thing that can be bothersome is the plastic tab at the back of the shoe that is made of hard plastic. Otherwise I would definitely recommend them.

These shoes are great! I bought them for mountain biking and trail running so they have been abused from day one, and they have met every challenge. They clean up easily and they wick water very well. I would definitely recommend these to anyone who is active in the outdoors.
