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.

Why Did You Change, When You Were So Good?
These are probably great shoes for someone with narrower feet. I've used trail gloves for over ten years, but they are no longer suited for those of us with wider feet. They're much narrower than before, and unfortunately I've had to give up Merrell shoes for other brands which are more comfortable.why
