Merrell OAKCREEK Waterproof Hiking Heather Boys' Shoes in Outdoor Review

One side is completely "destroyed" but the front and top are fine. He wore them for four months. My child has had Merrell shoes in the past which he has outgrown although they were in very good condition. And for $60 I expected the same Merrell quality.

I bought these for my 9 year old daughter and she is over the moon with how much she loves them - how great they feel (she makes them run faster when exercising, she says) and what beautiful colours. Happy with the purchase! Will buy one size up so we have it when she needs it.

Bought these for my 9 year old for hiking camp in Pocono and they were perfect. She had put them on twice before to break them in, but that was it and the blister was nowhere to be seen!

Bought a pair for my two grandchildren for Christmas, they love it, they said they like walking on air, highly recommend and will definitely be buying them again

My daughter loved these shoes and they fit well. However, they are NOT waterproof. She poured some water over it to test it and her sock got wet immediately. Disappointed with this as I bought these to wear when camping/hiking.

My son has been wearing these shoes for less than 4 weeks and they are clearly rubbish! Very disappointed. I wonder if they really are Merrells. His last pair of Merrells lasted over a year, he outgrew them.

Shoes are very light and easy to take off. But I have a feeling that today's Merrells are not as good in quality as previous generations. Not sure how long they will last so fingers crossed they are worth it.

My son rips shoes in a week! They were so dirty after wearing them for about 5 days but I washed them in the washing machine and they are like new again. Very durable. Will be buying these from now on instead of the typical Nike or other athletic shoes that are falling apart.

My son wears these shoes every day and they hold up very well. He wore them on a canyon tour last weekend and they worked very well and gave good grip on the rocks. would recommend.

Good quality. They don't feel like they're going to fall apart in a week. I was surprised at how strong they seemed when I unwrapped them. Colors as in the photo from the phone. The size is pretty TTS. Would definitely buy again.

Bought these for my son and he loves them. They withstand very well the combat tests to which they are subjected by children. I will order them again

My son loves these shoes. In contrast to other brands, they are in very good condition. I will definitely be using this brand from now on.

My son wore his toes in 4 days! Knowing Merril is tough I decided to try them but no, they were just as cheap as the name brands.

Merrell makes quality shoes that can handle my exuberant boy. This is my second pair in this style and he and I love them! No holes, no scuffs - it just grows out!

My daughter wore them on a hike where we did 30 miles and the profile still looks great. The black/rust color scheme may not appeal to all consumers! She said they were comfortable.

A bit pricey but the perfect shoe for an outdoor summer camp. The shoes feel like they will last a while - the stitching and sole are high quality.

My grandson has wide flat feet. We had to replace his previous Merrell shoes due to wear and tear. These shoes (another Merrells model) fit his foot perfectly. This model is denser. The local shoe store didn't stock better shoes, but they sold an orthotic with a thinner foot pad than the orthotics we use. That additional $45 purchase turned this cheap shoe into a more expensive purchase.

Children's shoes were significantly cheaper. I wear a 7 for adults so I usually wear a 5 for kids. These were sold out. I bought the 4.5 wide side hoping it would make up half the size difference and they were perfect. One of the shoes was rubbing against my ankle and I didn't know if I could wear them any longer, but after the third time they had worn enough and felt good. Also, the ankle that the shoe rubbed on was previously broken, so the initial discomfort was probably ankle + hard shoe…

Although the product name says "Merrell OAKCREK Low LACE Waterproof Hiking Boots, Black/Rust, 4 Unisex for Big US Kids", these shoes are not waterproof or even waterproof. stubborn. After my son's feet got wet five minutes after his first hike in these boots, I went back to re-read the product description. The title says the shoe is waterproof but the description in the fine print says it is not. I should have read more carefully before buying but shame on Revain for the false advertising.
