Most comfortable and versatile shoes I have owned. Purcased them over two years ago for a trip to Europe. Perfect fit from day one. Light to pack. Easy to slip on & off (especially on planes). Walked for miles in them on my trip and smart enough to get away with wearing day & night. Since returning home I have worn these shoes to work every day as a duty shoe and for shopping etc. The soles have finally worn thin but the uppers still look fine. Will have to purchase another pair soon as I'm totally addicted to these shoes.

I have had them for a couple of years and wear right through the spring, winter and autumn. They are my main pair of travel shoes so get worn in Europe almost everyday for a month in September. Love the way they fit like a glove and still look pretty good after years of wear. However, will purchase another pair shortly as they are still available online (though no longer in my city) and I want another in case they are taken off the market soon. I love them that much.

These are the best and most comfortable walking shoes I have had. My first pair had two years of rain, sea water, sand, mud, hiking and cleaned up ok to go out in. The suede, stitching, lining and zippers are still ok. Have since bought two more pairs. The fit is snug and I have only been able to find straight sizes in Australia, only half sizes from the US. The mesh styles in light colors tend to stain.
Merrell's Reply:
Thanks for your review. We do stock half sizes in Australia in the more popular colours of these shoes (such as black and red leather). If your local retailer does not have stock, they should be able to order them in for you.
