Merrell makes a great shoe, and this is no exception.  I had my doubts that it would slip on and stay on even slopping through the rain, mud and slop - but it did well and performed flawlessly.  Good fit, just as described and while this may not be the shoe you would wear to the office, it could be the one you change into when you get home.  Great arch support and quite comfortable all day long.  It keeps the weather out and your feet dry.
