The Shoes are excellent, very comfortable and great for hiking. I was skeptical of the thin flat soles, but they really seem to be the way to go. Only con is the sole doesn't last very long.

Great Shoe
Love these. A little extra cushioning from previous minimalist shoes, but very comfortable. Do well on any terrain and also sports or cross training.

Great Fit. Not Super Durable
I bought a pair for hiking. The fit was great and they were comfortable to wear all day, but after 1 hike the sole looks like a rodent chewed them up. To be fair it was a rim to rim hike in the grand canyon, but the terrain was on par with my usual hikes in big bend, so I don't think they'd last me much longer.

Faithful Shoe
I bought my original pair 7 years ago for outdoor activities in Baja Sur. They held up very well but are showing their age this year. So, I bought a new pair!

My Great Decision After A Ton Of Research!
I did a ton of research into various minimalist shoes. I tried on several brands. While in Williamsburg, I noticed there was a Merrell outlet. They were extremely helpful and I was able to tree these on. I wear a 9.5 in other Merrell shoes but as Merrell states, I went a half size down and the 9 fit perfect. I am so happy with these. They have zero drop and feel like you are wearing nothing, walking around barefoot. The Vibram sole grips and provides protection from rocks or objects. These are my fifth pair of Merrell shoes and i can safely say they are my favorite brand of shoes. I highly recommend them. They are much more comfortable than the similar model of Xero shoes I tried on. I will be taking these bad boys to Europe and around Virginia for hikes. Bravo, Merrell.
