The shoes had no cushioning. Every Merrell shoe I've bought before has been fantastic, but the more I wore these shoes, the more uncomfortable they became.

I like these shoes but my feet are big and wide so I always order sneakers and trainers in men's size. I regularly wear a women's size 9, so I ordered a men's 7 as usual, but they came up a whole size smaller. I will come back and order men's size 8 so hope they fit. Only gave 4 stars because the size was a bit small and I felt like my toes were stuffed.

I've had this shoe for about 3 months now. It's still holding up well considering the amount of wear and tear I've put them through. I only use them for HITT, strength training, trail running and just walking around town. I'm a shoe enthusiast and have had all kinds of sandals/zero fall style shoes and other minimalist brands and these shoes are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. They look really cool too, I just wish they had an all black version so I could wear them to work.

This is my second pair of Merrell Bare Access XTR trail shoes. I liked my first pair so much that I decided to get a pair in a different color. I only use them for training. They are perfect for this because they are very light, fit perfectly and have a very thin hem. Strangely they are called running shoes because I prefer a thicker heel for running. They're flat to the ground and perfect for lifting weights like squats. My first pair lasted me for many years and I expect they will too because

We chose men's size 13; This mysteriously ended up in my shopping cart as a size 14, so it was too big. I wrote to the seller about this and asked what I should do to get the size 12.5. They said they didn't have it and that it was ordered as a 14. Returns are free and easy, so it's not the end of the world (and I have two more to see which one suits me), but the seller seems to do it. don't worry to fix the order size discrepancy. The price is low for the model I'm looking for, so I'll take…

My usual shoe size is 41 EU (I use this instead of the US size because it seems more consistent). I bought a size 41 (men's 7.5) and found it almost a full size too small. I sent these back and then bought a 41.5 (men's size 8) and it's still too small. It's possible, but on one of my feet my big toe is a bit swollen. I would have to order a full size (42, men's 8.5) to get my normal size with this shoe. Sizing issues aside, I believe this model offers great support and was purchased to prevent

WARNING! These shoes are true to size. I had to return two pairs before finally finding my correct size. I almost gave up on Merrell shoes because I was so disappointed. I usually wear a size 11, but I had to go for a size 9; two sizes smaller. In addition, these shoes are exceptionally narrow. I have yet to walk in them.m. In general, the impression of them is not very good. I will say that this is quite an edgy pair of good quality running shoes and I love how they pair with the colorful…

I don't understand the many negative reviews about this shoe. Maybe buyers don't know that these are zero fall shoes (barefoot shoes). I wear them on a wet brush mixed with coarse earth, grass, crushed gravel and small pebbles, sand, compacted dirt and asphalt. Great feeling on all surfaces. Fully lace up your shoes (including the eyelets at the top) to tuck your heel into the heel cup for maximum security. The toe box is roomy - wider and taller for uphill and downhill treks. The insole has a…
