I own many pairs of Merrell shoes and have always been really pleased, so I bought these with a great deal of confidence that I would love them. I don't.

The sizing is off, just enough that I wouldn't want to step down a size in order to try to get a better fit, for fear they would be too small. There is something really off in the very hard arch. I do not have flat feet and the arches on these shoes cut me in a very uncomfortable way. In order to get any use from these I will have to get some sort of custom orthotics, just to wear a shoe that should have fit comfortably in the first place.

I do love the mesh upper and so wish these were as comfortable as other Merrell's. I won't be buying these shoes  again, and feel like they were a big waste of money.
