Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Usually, I love Merrell Hiking boots. With my last pair I hiked the grand canyon three times! This pair has been a tremendous disappointment only because after 3 weeks of daily use as a K9 Handler the right boot inside toe started ripping, stitching is coming out and had to use Shoe Goo to repair them. These should come with Shoe Goo to repair the stitching. These are my most comfortable boots and truly waterproof. My last pair were half this price and lasted three years of hiking trips. Too bad they don't make the right boot as well as they do the left boot. I'm going to recommend they sell these boots separately. I know the issue is not width because these are wide. For Merrell boots I'd recommend going cheap if for daily wear, the more costly don't seem to equal better quality. For me these were a waste of money! They're great while they last - about two months - at this rate if I kept buying these Merrells new, it would cost me about $800 a year!
