I'm a big fan of Merrell, shoes; I bought these to replace a five-year-old pair of Moab water shoes that I love and have worn constantly, but sadly were discontinued some time ago. After replacing the standard laces with shock cords, these were ready to rock for my vacation trip and pretty comfortable for all the walking we did. I wish these had a removable insole like my old pair, and that the Black/Red color was actually completely black (the mesh is a medium dark gray). but other than that, thumbs up on these shoes.

You might want to also check out the Merrell Tetrex Crest Wrap Sport Sandal as well - if I had seen them before I bought these, they a what I would have ordered, as they look to be closer to the Moabs I love so much.
