This is my everyday pair of shoe, I walk the dog I wear this shoe, I go to the office, I wear this shoe, I am on week end going out I wear this shoe. I am over 50 and I no longer can wear high heels or anything with heels.. I bought a pair a year ago, and recently noticed that the inside part where the ankle is, was used and the mesh destroyed, so I thought it is time to get a new one.. and when merrell had a small discount, I jumped on the occasion and got me another pair in a gray and green version, a bit lighter color than the previous dark gray one and I am wearing it daily. This is probably one of my most comfortable merrell shoes, I will recommend it to anyone. It may run slightly larger or maybe I should say that it is roomy in the toe area, but it also seems to widen. I actually slide my feet in it, but always wear a nice pair of merrell socks with these, so the socks protect my feet. The size that I bought is size 10 which is also the same size I buy other shoes from merrell, this one is just roomier and you can stay with this from the morning till late night. I wear them at least 12 hours a day every day seven days a week.
