Merrell Men's Speed Strike 2 Hiking Shoe

I bought these shoes 3'4 months ago as I had to walk several miles a day on cement. I had previously been able to use the barefoot shoes that Merrell sells, but when I switched to cement, they had to be put aside. There is barely any wear on these shoes. The tread is a hard enough rubber to last forever. The only visible sign of wear is the inevitable dirt that gets on them. I have no doubt these shoes will still be worn for quite a while despite all the miles I put on them. I can always count on Merrell for quality. Thanks, Jim

Very good shoes; excellent for hiking. There's rubber bumps on the bottom and they're slightly slanted backwards to give good grip when walking on grass or dirt (as well as the design around the bottom room being slightly angled for grip). The front of the shoe is raised up to prevent any strain on your toes as your tip your hind foot forward while walking.

I bought these for me husband who has a bad back and needed to attend an all day work function on his feet. He has never worn the Merrell brand shoe but said they were comfortable all day and his back did not bother him at all. Highly recommend these shoes!

Actually a shoe that is true to size. 10.5 EE fits just like my Danner work boots. Alot of other brands I half size up especially being a wide footer. Wore out of the box no break in without issue. There will be more Merrells in my future.

Finding a larger size hiking sneaker that isnt too narrow is difficult, these fit amazing. They aren’t too heavy. Wore them for a hike to break them in before our big hiking trip, don’t think it was needed. Very comfortable sneakers

Comfortable ad affordable best shoe I have ever owned. many people recommended this brand to me and I'm not disappointed. very stylish but mor important the comfort and feels like I'm not wearing a shoe. like walking on air.

Surprised at the sole. Merrell usually has great soles but this is low grade foam. Slips on rocks like ice. For an outdoors shoe I woukdnt hike in them. Otherwise comfortable and fit to size

Very comfortable from day one they felt already broken in. Feet didn't feel sore even after very long hikes. Held up walking on both very rugged rocky trails as well as sloppy wet ones.
