Merrell Choprock Shandal Sandal Orange Boys' Shoes: The Ultimate Outdoor Footwear for Active Boys Review

They were used for hiking along the river/stream. You need a pair of socks to break it, but they did the job. The shoes had high arches, so it took a while to get used to them. Stones and sand got into it, which was very inconvenient. The elastic laces held up well.

Great shoes but after two weeks of use the stitching on one of the shoes came undone and the size of the shoe is too small resulting in blisters on both my son's feet.

The laces snapped immediately. My daughter hardly wore them and the special braided laces broke. Disappointing, I usually love Merrel shoes

I really wanted to love her for my son; but the bracelet is cracked from minimal wear. It is comfortable to wear barefoot and it covers the entire foot with good ventilation. Ideal for water sports. He has a high arch and they suit him well in that regard. We managed to tie the strap where it came off the tongue. I thought Merrell shoes were better quality.

I love the concept of these shoes but all the rocks end up in the lake making walking impossible. defeats the purpose of having shoes.

Bought a pair of neoprene socks and these water shoes for my 7 year old son to walk on the river. They did what was necessary. He has to wear them for years. Maybe another sigh of the year….

I love these shoes and wish Merrell would continue to make these hybrid tennis shoes and sandals that are supportive and flexible. It's a wet and cross-country champion.

I actually bought two pairs of these. My kids and I walked the local streams and quickly realized we didn't have the right shoes. I ordered these for my kids and they were great. Comfortable shoes for hiking and great for climbing slippery rocks in the creek. Highly recommended.

Ideal for wide feet and easy to put on! It is easy to put on and loosen for children. Easy to clean and keep clean. Lots of breathing holes and well made. The outsole has excellent traction on any surface, wet or dry. Convenient for long or short use. I like that the legs can breathe and the toes are protected. Will buy again if a larger size is needed and would recommend to others.

My child wears them for about a week. The rubber band is already detaching from the tongue. For the price I paid and the small amount of careful use they've gotten, it's insane. I expected more from Merrell!

Ideal! I'm glad I paid the extra for her. My preschooler loves them and now we can go camping without worrying about bruised fingers.

Bought this for my active son mainly because of the zero heel. He wears it to a nearby park. Supports air circulation and does not stink. Comfortable shoes overall with adequate arch support.

I have a 7 year old who just doesn't want to wear uncomfortable shoes. She often put a pair of shoes on once and then said they hurt or were too hot. She has never complained about these shoes and in fact they are her favorite shoes. She goes to a day camp and comes home dirty from head to toe. I have to wash everything, you guessed it, especially her shoes. They wash well and dry quickly. Very happy with this purchase and will buy again.

*Update. After wearing them at home for a few hours, they proved very uncomfortable and we ended up sending them in the mail. return. They had a stain that started rubbing even when worn casually inside. Too bad they ended up in the return pile and our search had to continue. My kid is SUPER picky about shoes. A rough spot, an odd arch support, or a spot that rubs and he's out. We have ordered a water shoe from almost every brand. It was exactly what he was looking for. The tongue covers any…
