Very cute! Love the little bit of heel for style and a feminine look. I wanted something stylish but practical for walking my pup in colder wet weather. I'm a straight size 6 in every shoe but these were a little too snug and short. I had ordered a 6.5 at the same time in black and they fit perfect. Keeping the black, returning the sz 6 brown, and just ordered a 6.5 in brown. Will be nice to have 2 different colors to go with everything! Already wore the black to walk my dog in cold wet rain today - feet were dry and warm and I didn't feel frumpy or look like I was going camping :-)

I absolutely love this boot! I was looking for something waterproof for an upcoming trip to Europe. These boots are very comfortable right out of the box with no break in time. Very stylish and looks great with jeans or leggings. Very happy with my purchase!

Such a cute and comfortable boot! I love that the heel is a bit higher and walking around in them has been VERY easy and cushioned. I love the Olive color...and am considering getting it in black, too.

I love these boots! They fit me perfectly. Plenty of room in the toe box but not too loose in the heal. I have plantar fasciitis and the cushioning and height of the heal relieves the pain. They are very cute with good grip on the sole. Haven’t worn them in the snow yet but I have high hopes for them.

This boot is as "rugged" as I go. Waterproof but still stylish enough. Good for slushy days when you don't want to trod around town in full-on rubber boots.

Love this boot! The tread doesn’t show as much as it does online, it’s really subtle or not even noticeable when the boot is on. It’s a somewhat narrow fit, which is great for me! I have yet to wear it in the wet weather, but my last pair of Merrel waterproof boots lasted many, many years. I’m a 10.5 but ordered an 11 for heavy socks and it’s perfect for that.

I love these boots, they are cute (not bulky), the perfect height and great traction. I ordered a half size larger to wear thick socks and they fit perfect. Comfortable right out of the box.

I’ve only wore it around the house to try on, but it is super comfortable and doesn’t seem like it needs to be broken in. It’s a narrow fit, which is perfect for me. I usually wear a 10.5 but ordered an 11 for winter sock room and it’s perfect. I would totally recommend this boot unless u have a wider than regular foot, it’s definitely a narrow boot. And the traction isn’t as bold/obvious as it is in the pic, which is nice. Can’t wait for fall weather:)

Bought these for a trip to Ireland. Walked everywhere in them and they were perfect. Comfortable, stylish and waterproof - who could ask for more?!

Oh my goodness, I love these boots!! I need something that has good traction for an upcoming ski trip, and these are also super cute. The best thing is that they will also be perfect on rainy days here in Dallas (and icy days...but that is few and far between in these parts)! Plus, they are truly comfortable, and being Merrell's...they will last for years! Cute, comfortable, and functional...yes please!!

These are fabulous! They’re extremely comfortable right out of the box. I ordered my size and a half size larger. I kept the half size larger so that I’d have room for thick socks in cold weather.

These are lovely boots, well made with great styling. However, they were just too narrow in the toe box for me. Too bad, because they are really nice, especially the olive green color I got. I suggest going up a half size.

Love these Merrell boots! I have high arches and these give excellent arch support! Walked 3 miles right out of the box.

I cannot believe how comfortable these boots are. I have a very bad back and am limited in the shoes I can wear. I have had good luck with Merrell in the past so I thought I would give these a try. With the higher heel I did not think I would be able to wear them but they were so cute, I had to give them a try. I am so glad I did. They have a great arch support and fit like a glove. Thank you, thank you Merrell. If anyone is looking for a great sneaker try Merrell's "Barefoot" line.

Got these out of the box, and thought,"well, they look a bit narrow." I don't have narrow feet, but I've had issues over the last 20+ years with bunions, and neuromas (pinched nerve between metatarsals), and surgeries for all of this. I also wear orthotics with most athletic shoes, prescribed by podiatrists who did my surgery. So pleasantly surprised to put them on and they feel great--immediately, and I can tell I will not have to wear orthotics with these boots, as they have terrific arch support, and feel cushy, yet firm under my feet. No pinching, tightness, or stiffness. This was no real surprise, since I've bought Merrell shoes for eons, and have never had to return them. Well worth the price, and will probably wear them 'til I die!

What great tromping mid-sized boots! And a great Green color! The fit is true to size though if you are wearing these for warmth I would recommend sizing up 1/2 size with thicker socks. I live where it rains a lot so the grid pattern on the soles may be a problem when winter becomes muddier. But not yet, now is just the time to enjoy them.

These are good looking boots but much narrower in the front than previous Merrell’s. I was sorry to return them.

Loooooove this boot! i also bought the brown and green...and the 'winter' brown boot with the faux fur trim. These boots are SO comfortable and seem like you're walking on a soft cushion. I have big feet so LOVE that there's a wee bit of toe room so I don't have to go up to 9.5. I can walk around in these ALL day!

I love the look of this boot, and it is extremely well constructed!! Merrell has been my go-to boot for a long time, but this boot unfortunately has very little arch support and almost not padding in the foot bed. For a boot that I intended to wear a lot, I felt that it wouldn't be really “kind” to my feet. I have endured Plantar Faciaitis once and have no desire to do it again...I need cush!! For that reason I am sending the boots back.

I love these boots! I bought them in brown and green. Both pairs are perfect! From the moment you put them on they are so comfortable. I have somewhat narrow feet, and have had arch spots since I was young. These are the perfect boot for me, and they are so cute! I bought my true size and did not size up, and my wool socks fit perfectly! I am thinking I might buy them in black.

Just ordered my second pair in another color for fall. I have walked miles in my other pair and they are my go to shoes for errands, outings and anywhere comfort and support make for a better day. They look great with jeans or leggings. I can remove insoles for custom for inserts as needed (I use Superfeet).

Not quite as stylish as the non lace-up version but pretty cute and comfortable. I really wanted these to work but they were just a tad too small and narrow in the toe box

I really liked these, though they didn’t look as good as the pictures, the heel were just enough to feel taller and covered enough for winter. But, the inner stitching on one foot irritated my small toe, and the heel didn’t feel stable and hard enough, so my foot felt wobbly. I reluctantly returned them.

The boot is really comfortable, especially for having a pronounced heel on it. I find the lacing structure to be pretty stylish and I am overall happy with it. I do however find the stamped plastic -like look of the heel to look cheap which is disappointing but not worth shipping the boot back over.
