Best boots ever of all time. I wanted some for a long time before I found these on the clearance table at REI. I've worn them every other day for 5 years alternating with other boots. I will buy another pair as soon as I find another semi good deal. If I don't find a good buy soon I won't mind shelling out the 250 for a new pair. I walk long distances in the dity, and in the mountains. My feet that were once boarderline healthy are in great shape. My only problem is finding them. I think such care is put into their making that they can't keep up demand, but that's just a guess. PS I don't work for them. Similar Products Used: Red Wing, Nike, Vasque |

Very nice boots; overall fit and comfort are quite high, especially for wide feet. Break in period went without a hitch, and I have never had foot problems with the boots. I have owned these now for about 5 years. Similar Products Used: Vasque |

These boots are the best overall one piece full grain leather boot I have ever encountered. I have had minimal break-in time (if you do it right) and maximum usage. Not a friggin problem at all. Bomber sole, too. Similar Products Used: None |

I bought my Merrell Wilderness boots to augment my Danner Mountain Lights when carrying heavier loads and/or going cross country. I eventually stayed with the Danners for all around trail and cross country use and gave the Merrells to my son.The Merrells aren't a bad boot, I just didn't like them as much as the Danner. Different strokes for different folks. Similar Products Used: Danner Mountain Lights, LaSportiva Maklu, Raichle Rotando |

Well, I bought these shoes just to knok around in during the winter months because they were a really good deal. It turns out that these darn things are impervious to all attacks. Mud, salt, dirty water and general wear and tear have had no effect on them. Did I mention that thay are quite comfortable as well. I think I'll swap them with my regular hiking boots. Now if they only made a pair of mntnbike shoes. Similar Products Used: None |

I have owned a pair of Merrell's for probably 6 months now. Other than the fact that they are significantly dirtier than when I got them, I see no signs of deterioration. Their great. I will probably get another pair, when and if these run out. Similar Products Used: None |

These boots are the most comfortable ones I've ever worn. Seriously. The break in period for me was about two weeks, and after that the boot had molded to the fit of my foot. With a little waterproofing after breaking them in, these boots are ready to handle anything. Similar Products Used: None |
