    Great So Far

    Bought these for my husband. Comfortable and light hiking shoe. So far no issues with hiking.

    Great Shoe

    This has been my favorite Merrell shoe. I have tried others in the Nova line but still like these the best.

    Awesome Shoes

    I have been wearing these shoes off and on to break them in and I’m going on a few short hikes with them on this coming weekend. I have owned Merrill products for years and they are the best trail shoes I have ever owned.

    Great For Work.

    These are my go-to's for my bartending job. I can wear them all day, even for double shifts and my feet feel great.

    I bought these for the reviews and now I’m writing one because they feel that good!

    Great Walking Shoe Until...

    Great walking shoe until the insole started slipping back towards the heal leaving the toes to hang over and making them quite uncomfortable. Until then I was loving them.

    Fell Apart With Light Use

    Insole keep coming out of shoe and sliding while wearing them. Also the fabric split open on the side near the ball of my feet.

    Extremely Comfortable

    Im a home inspector and on my feet all day, these are wide, true to size and very comfortable. I also wear them for the excellent traction for walking roofs-!

    Nice Fit But Falling Apart After Less Than 1 Year

    I purchased these a little less than a year ago. I like the fit and color, but they are wearing faster than other merrell shoes I’ve bought in the past (I’ve used merrell shoes the last 7 years). Holes are almost completely worn through the fabric that doesn’t even have direct friction—just bad design as there should be more reinforcement in these areas of the shoes. Won’t purchase these again.

    Comfortable

    Very, very comfortable! I have flat feet, and support is good...for me.

    Great Shoes For Walking

    I bought these shoes a month ago after starting a job working security at a concert venue. I spends many hours on my feet. Shoes are holding up very well. I also help with emptying trash cans at the end of the night and the shoes still look pretty much the same even after trash spilling on them numerous times.

    Gravel Approved!

    Excellent gravel runners. I was in need of a good durable running shoe for gravel roads and this pair feel like I’m running with memory foam compared to my old shoes. Great shoes!

    Great Hiking Shoes

    My son got these and was able to go for a long hike shortly after getting them. They were comfortable and kept his feet dry. No complaints!

    Great Except For Durability

    I love these shoes when they are in good shape, but I’ve had 2 pairs now and they do not last long on the type of Rocky Mountain terrain I am normally on. I got my 2nd pair free from Merrell after my first didn’t even make it through a full summer hiking season before the soles starting deteriorating. The replacement pair they sent did even worse, only making it to the beginning of August before becoming unusable. It’s such a shame because I love the shoes but I don’t want to have to replace them every 3-4 months. Maybe the Nova 3’s are better, but I’ll probably look at other brands.
