I liked the style and the light wieght feel of the shoes. am a bit disappointed with the rear heal. It's already separating on one of the shoes. I have even had the shoes more than 3 weeks.

These shoes are extremely light and comfortable from the very first wearing. Feels like walking on pillows. This is my 4th pair of Merrells and I have never been disappointed with their comfort and quality.

This is the best formal shoe that I've ever bought so far. I wore it on a couple occasions, it's very comfortable, and some friends have said to me it's a nice shoe, and they asked me where I bought it.

Finally a pair of Merrells that are dressy enough. For me Merrells can't be beat. This shoe is light, comfortable and can be worn with dress slacks (though not exactly for formal wear). My first time to put them on was for church. Looked great and felt better. Walked all over the grocery store after church and never knew I had on new shoes. My orthopedic surgeon recommended Merrells after surgery. I won't go with anything else now. But Merrell doesn't carry many designs that are dressy. This one took care of that.
Wears this shoe: Church and work in office environment.
