Merrell Pulse II Mid Hiking Boots - Waterproof (For Women)

So far I have been wearing the shoes only around the house, but they have been very comfy from the start. Good support, not too heavy and they don't bind anywhere. I don't know if I would wear them climbing mountains ( which I have no intention of doing), but I think they would be comfy enough to wear all day doing yardwork. Waterproof, I don't know, have not tried it. I rated it 4 stars because they have not gotten the "full workout" yet. But, as of now, I would recommend these boots.

Bought one pair for the cabin and liked them so much I purchased another pair to leave at the beach house. Great fit and comfort from day one.

I will use the boots for extended rigorous hiking/climbing in the Tasmanian wilderness. Conditions are lots of mud and rock.

Bought these one-half size larger to accommodate cushioned socks and summer expanding feet and size was perfect. Super light weight. Great ankle padding. So far so good. Great price!

Merrell quality is vey high, but sizing is not always standard. Sizing can vary considerably from model to model.

The Vibram sole offers a soft landing. It's also designed perfectly for a woman who has a little hip (woman tend to land, roll the foot inward, then toe off). It took one hike to break the ankle in and a bit more for the toe area. I would recommend wearing a mid-calf hiking sock, for cushion and wicking. This boot is a real bargin for the $.

We are very pleased with these boots that we purchased for my daughter to use during a wilderness church camp. She reports that they are already very comfortable and she looks forward to using them next week during camp. The boots were a great value and look great, to boot!

I ordered these boots for our big go west adventure for this summer. I took the boots out of the box and they were instantly comfortable. I camped this weekend and hiked through shallow water and wet grass and my feet did not get wet. My first pair of Merrels--I am a new fan!

I am a daily walker and also state park hiker. This is just a wonderful boot. Put it on, and just go. I use orthodics and barely need them with this shoe, but there is room to put one in with the removable insole. It is lightweight, great traction, and a good fit in the heel. This is my 3rd pair of Merrells and have found each pair to wear a long time.

Within 2 hours of wear, these felt as comfortable as the Merrell boots I'd just retired aft 5 years of use. They have adequate ankle support, and they are waterproof, or at least Oregon-mudproof!
