"Thanks Merrell! for bringing back this great hiking shoe. The cleverly designed uppers are made from top quality materials and very durable. As I was amazed to find out, the vibram soles will give you octopus like traction going up steep dirt trails. Comfortable right out of the box. Once you adjust the cinch lacing to fit your foot, you can just slip them on and off without ever touching the setting again. The snug stretch ankle collar does well at keeping debris from getting inside. Only drawback are the soles, which tend to wear quickly at the heel on hard pavement, but if you keep them mainly for trail hiking, they will last many years. Bought several pairs from Onlineshoes a couple years back and glad to see they are available again for those who have never had the pleasure of owning a pair of these unique hikers."

"This is the finest all-use shoe I have ever owned. I've bought 8 or 10 pairs -- mostly for me, but some as gifts for friends who now adore them as much as I do and can't imagine going without them. They LAST. I have a pair from 5 years ago still holding together enough to do dirty yardwork or romp through the nastiest ground conditions. I have 3 in reserve still new in the box and am going to get at least a couple more while supplies last. For a while, you couldn't find them anywhere and I had multiple websites watching for them and would snatch a pair when it surfaced. If you like the look, get one while you can."

I bought these for my adventures during my year long deployment in Jerusalem. They have not disappointed. The first weekend I had them I went hiking in the Golan for 3 days with absolutely zero complaints. One day consisted of a fairly rugged hike that involved scaling rock faces (great traction) and swimming across a river with your gear in a waterproof pack (easy to get the shoes off and on again
