Excellent - As Always
I use Merrell Glove 4/5/7 for running and needed some new walking boots. All i can say is they 100% live up to my previous experience. They were an exact fit (6.5) allowing room for my chunky socks. Perfect on all terrain & so comfortable that i forgot i was wearing them. I nailed 20k to break them in & it's as though i had been wearing them for months. Extreme comfort, 100% waterproof through thick mud and puddles. For the price - all round excellent.

The best boot I ever owned.
I walk..alot.. around a million steps a year. This is the best lightweights medium boot I have ever had for walking. Sturdy ,but might, tough but comfortable. Had them 5 months about.. Not one wet sock in a wet summer..very waterproof and excellent grip for walking, standing or moving about in undulating terrain. An excellent purchase

The boots are still reasonably waterproof after walking the dog daily for a number of months.
The boots are reasonably comfortable, they don't offer a great deal of support to the arches of your foot, the grip is mediocre, but they are more waterproof than alot of boots that I have bought over the years which is a great bonus. They don't look to bad either. I wouldn't want to wear them all day but they do serve their purpose.

Lightweight, comfortable and initially waterproof, but they don't last
I'm now onto my third pair of these (would have been two pairs but there was a special offer). I wear them daily for walking my dog, averaging about 3.25 miles a day. They are lightweight and comfortable to wear, have good grip and are initially waterproof for typical walking conditions. However, with each of my first two pairs, after about 10 months the seam by the ball of the foot opened up and the boots therefore began to let in water. I have attached a photo of this. This happened on both boots of both pairs. This is a shame as they have plenty of tread left on the soles. They remain functional for walking in dry conditions but are useless in the wet. I'm not an expert in boot design but it seems to me that putting a stitched seam at the point where the foot flexes the most during walking is not ideal. When I next buy walking boots I will look more closely at the placement of the seams. Maybe I'm expecting too much at this price point but I had hoped to get more than 1000 miles walking out of these otherwise really good boots.

First time I wore these boots they let water in and I was only walking on grass
The boots look great and promise much, but I think the lack of waterproofness is not good enough,I don't feel I got value for money

Great comfortable , waterproof hiking shoes
Did a 12 km hike in the rain today , very good footing , and grip , so comfortable and fits like a glove , not rubbing or discomfort , also good price I paid was on offer for ยฃ63.01 ,a steal at this price ,only downside is that that I nearly slipped twice walking inadvertently on the metal drains on the pavements , best to avoid walking on the metal or slippery surfaces, these will be good for hiking in the mountains and rocks , I will use the vibram outsole shoes for the wet weather , will wear these on dry hikes from now , I still highly recommend them due to the incredible comfort when wearing these. Highly recommended.
