Merrell Mens Waterpro Maipo 2

I've always been a Nike air fan, for 30+ years.. These are the first pair of shoes that are making me re-consider what I appreciate in a shoe. If durability holds up, I am not certain I will purchase more Nike. These particular Merrell shoes are ultra light, drain well, are very comfortable and have incredible traction on a variety of surfaces. The only misleading aspect of these shoes is that it was stated that they are fast drying. The leather and insulation components of the shoe do not dry fast (within 3 days in a closet), but they did not smell after trekking through the lake and putting them in the dryer. I absolutely love these shoes!

Great shoes overall! I work outdoors and constantly find myself wading through water and streams. The best part about these shoes is they are breathable, comfortable, and lightweight. Once my shift is over, I place the shoes in my truck and they are always dry in the morning. I always make sure to let loose the laces and pull the tongue out as far as I can to help with drying. So far I have no complaints. I’ll update if any problems occur.

I'm rough on shoes. I tend to gravitate towards boots, to wear at work, because they tend to last much longer. That being said, I still like to wear shoes at home, for comfort. These Merrell shoes appears to be well made, and are my first experience with the brand. They're comfy, they fit well; I hope they hold up.

I used these shoes on my trip to Thailand. These were the only shoes I wore, besides flip flops (thongs, sandals, slippers of course) I wore these on multiple occasions but the main ones I purchased them for were: -Day hiking in a national park (2 hour hiking thru moderate, well marked trails - up and down main stairs + dirt trails, ~5km) -Kayaking and rock-scrambling (descended / climbed rocks using ropes and rocks for handholds) -Hiking and cliff jumping (30 minute hike on dirt trails, w/ moderate incline and cliff sides) These held up during hiking. Only downside is sometimes you will get small rocks and dust in your shoes. This is because there is mesh all along the top. They also have good traction for rock climbing, with moderate traction over wet rocks. I never slipped and fell while wearing these, but depending on the rocks, it may be better to go barefoot. Since the whole top is mesh, these shoes have great airflow and dry quickly. They completely dried overnight between uses. After about 3-4 hours they were moderately dry. I wouldn't trek long distances in these shoes when wet. The walking I did while they were wet did not result in any chafing or blisters though. Not the trendiest shoe - thus I never wore them in the city. Tucking in the laces makes the yellow laces look a bit better as well. I wore my sandals or New Balance for dinners and what not.

Third pair of Merrell water shoes. These are 9.5's and they fit great. I am a kayak/paddle board guide, and use them for taking out guests. I need something rugged which will protect my feet from oyster shells and cacti. These do the job. They are well worth the price point, and better than that Chinese junk they sell on here. I have searched all the major US outdoor brands, and these are the best I have found so far. PS - I actually use mine for Scuba Diving boots as well...lol.

I originally got these as a water shoe for a beach vacation that could also be used as all around shoes with no show socks. I originally had the Maipo 1, but these are much better, lighter and more versatile than I expected. Very light weight and lots of mesh on the uppers that seriously keep my feet cool even on the hottest days compared to any of my other Merrells - even better than the original Maipo. They have decent support and good laces and I've been wearing them pretty much as my daily drivers since I got home. They are not hiking shoes by any means, but I did some hiking in them and they work for light trails. They are about as perfect as an all around hot weather summer water shoe can be - I'm surprised that I wear them as much as I do.

I bought these as my only shoes going on a 2.5 week trip in the Philippines. After buying and returning 6 other water shoes these won the battle. - put on a pair of socks and they feel like sneakers. - well supported, I'm sensitive and can't wear unsupportive shoes for more than 1 hour. - I'm very active and these handled through rocky terrain for days. Jumping, slipping and running. (Very surprised they didn't fall apart) - NO BLISTERS! Even though I would go from wet to dry to wet all day and walking miles. - easy to clean out sand and shell particles. - water drains out nicely and doesn't get slushy.

price too high quality not good

Skorna gör hela min kropp glad!

These shoes are the best, they fit between a sort of a hybrid barefoot and hiking shoe. I'm using them as a light work wear as I'm a horticulturalist and I get wet feet a lot. Super comfy and the grip is awesome. I hope they have the longevity that comes with the labour of being on your feet all day, time will tell .

I have a pair of closed toe sandals that have seen better days. They fasten with a Velcro strap that never really tighten the shoe. Even with all this wonderful summer rain, my normal winter / autumn walking shoes were becoming a little warm to wear in the heat and I had started looking at new sandals / trainers when I discovered this shoes. They are NOT waterproof they are light and breathable and they keep your feet secure and cool. If you go out in the rain or step in the puddles or walk through snow - your feet and socks will get wet! But in the summer they are prefect - way better than sandals and trainers. I'm a guy who likes his shoes snug to his feet. They need good laces, pulled tight through proper metal eyelets or metal hooks - with a good double knot. These Merrell's defy that with a strange lace system that with little effort wraps the shoe to your foot and with a light knot stays snug and secure whilst walking. I'm hoping that if I resist the urge to give the laces a good yank to tighten them - they'll last a long time. The soles are Vibram which I find hit and miss. My last pair of Merrell's several years ago, the upper well outlived this type of sole - likewise my attempt with GriSport's had the same problem. Only time will tell. As for being sticky, I'd say that these are actually better than any of my previous shoes. Nothing yet beats bare feet but certain surfaces that I know to be slippery seem safer but I wouldn't forgo common sense just yet. Where the grip excels, you'll understand the sticky concept. Even with light pressure or just on the tips of your toes - these shoes will not slide on certain floors. As for the rest of the shoe - they're Merrell's - they look and feel well made. I brought them at a slightly discounted price - but if they survive my feet for several summers - I'd buy them again at full price.
