I love these shoes. They are very light and fit wonderfully. They took me a couple days to get used to how light they are. They are different than any other 'sneakers' I ever had. I called and asked Merrell what the differences was between the 'waterproof ' ones and the 'GORE-TEX'(which are also waterproof) ones are. I was told that the GoreTex is a brandname and costs a bit more so Merrell has made their own waterproof material to use. BUT I was also told by Merrell, the Merrell waterproof ones don't vent as well as the GORE-TEX does. Get the GORE-TEX! I wear these every morning in high WET grass with my dogs , for over 2 hours. MY feet stay dry. Here is a hint on how to make sure they stay waterproof. The outside will get wet , but not go into your socks area. They take awhile to dry. Make sure they are completely DRY before using them in wet again. I put them on top of the water heater, works great to completely dry them. .
I actually purchased another pair so when these finally wear out (which will be a long time from now, they are well made) I will have another pair to use. Some reviewers said to buy a larger size, I bought my regular size, they fit fine. Also the tongue did rub just a couple of times the 2nd or 3rd time I wore them, but it went right away and molded to my foot. I have now started alternating the two pairs so I know they are completely dry when I start out in the morning. Sometimes if they are damp on the outside overnight (if I forget to put them on the heater after a really wet day) they will let a sllight bit of dampness in after about 1.5 hrs of use. It has never happened when they started out DRY.. even after 8 hrs.

These shoes are pretty comfy, other than they are stiff around the top of the foot, you need to wear a thick sock to help with this, they feel good on the bottom of the feet and fit well, need a half size up.

They arent the greatest looking shoes, but they are really comfortable! My feet swelled up in the desert while hiking, so I might have wanted to get 1/2 size bigger.

These running shoes are very comfortable. I have a high arch and I find the support amazing. They toe box is perfect width, also. I would definitely recommend them to others.
