Merrell in general

I love the pair of Merrell Oslo boots I bought October last year. They kept my feet dry and warm during a Halloween day out in Thorpe Park (it rained non-stop ALL day), this meant I was in a much better mood than any of my friends. I wore them to Norway a couple of weeks ago and around town and up snowy mountains there was never an issue with the toastiness or dryness of my feet. The only cons are that thay can be too warm on mild days and I had to get a size smaller than I actually am as they come up big.

I have recently returned from six months backpacking around Australia and before I went I bought what was the most expensive pair of shoes that I have ever bought- a pair of Merrel Chameleon Wrap Slam GTX walking shoes. Being new to this I had never bought a pair before and was baffled by the amount of choice that I had, however, after reading many reviews it appeared that generally Merrell came out as one of, if not the best in making walking/hiking shoes.

I am now onto my fourth pair of Merrell's after owning two pairs of Men's Sprint Blast I am now onto my second pair of mens Racer. These particular shoes are a leather upper with a cushioned sole which provides excellent ware and tare and brilliant support. I first purchased a pair of Merrell's because I was getting a lot of pain in my instep and achiles heal from wearing trainers with a low heal, my Doctor suggested a more supportive shoe and as I wanted something half fashionable I went for a pair of Merrell's. I really find it hard to fault them on their quality and ability to withstand daily ware and tare. My only gripe really is the price, depending where ...  Read the complete review
