I don’t find it comfortable for running or walking.

I have run a few times in my Agility Peak 5 shoes and I like them a lot. They are most suitable for flat hard-surface trails, provide good cushion and a little bounce, and are very comfortable out of the box. I used them once on a rougher terrain and found them unstable due to the high stack.

Love the shoes unfortunately the lace eyelets are tearing out after only a few wears !!!

Last year, I wore my first pair of Agility Peak 5's for a week of of hiking in Yosemite NP and for a 60-mile backpacking trip in Glacier NP. They were incredibly comfortable and they performed perfectly on the trail. I liked these shoes so much that I purchased a second pair for a recent 40-mile backpacking trip on the Ruby Crest Trail in Nevada. Once again they didn't let me down as I hiked over dirt trails, rocks and through snow fields and creeks. There is a big reason why I purchased the same shoe 2 years in a row. They make my feet really happy and I trust them. Thank you Merrell!

Everyone is asking where did I purchased these shoes.

Comfortable shoe. Mostly using as a house shoe for now - helps to keep my feet issues at bay.

Great shoe, wore these for the first 429 miles of the Appalachian Trail… probably about 50 to 100 miles too long when comparing the sole to the new pair of Peak 6’s. The Peak 5 held up well and the gaiter features (Velcro on heel and loop towards toe) accomodated most gaiters.

If you tighten the laces too much the material of the shoe rips. They need a grommet or the equivalent thing for a shoe.

Love these shoes so much, took them on a 7 mile hike (icehouse trailhead in CA) no complaints and all the traction i could need, did notice that when wet i would loose a little traction but on the trail they dry quick making them perform at there best when i needed them. Getting a second pair for the dry trails i go on, these are beautiful to casually wear.

There is a large slash, gouge in the side of one of the soles...
Nice light shoe. It's not soft and squishy like a thick Altra sole, it's a firmer sole if that's what your looking for. For the price it's a great shoe.

Shoe is very comfortable, wore them in Sedona and the red rocks ruined them. Shoes are now orange and won't come clean. Also, they are not waterproof and even a little water made them quickly seep through.

Very comfortable and great footbed. Highly recommend!
The nubs on the bottom sometimes make for unstable footing on flat ground but they have great traction on snow and turf.
