Merrell shoes are fantastic...great quality and good looks; I used to wear them a lot.  This shoe would be wonderful for most people, but I have a couple of foot problems so this particular style doesn't work for me (specifically, rubs my bunion).  Encore Breeze is an attractive, versatile shoe (although it did seem to make my feet hot after awhile) at a reasonable price.  I had to return mine, but would recommend them to anyone looking for comfort in a casual, everday shoe.
