I am a Road Warrior (I hate that term) but I spend a lot of time on my feet in airports. After burning thorugh a dozen pairs of dress shoes and ending up with swollen, aching feet at the end of a long business travel day, I went to SHOEBUY.COM and got the Merrell Passports. They are lightweight, made of superior construction, they are very attractive and can be worn in both a casual and business casual setting. My feet feel so good I almost feel guilty. ShoeBuy.Com ROCKS!!!
I’ve never been dissatisfied with Merrill’s. This new style (although still a comfort shoe) is a little dressier than the old ones. This is one of the best shoes for any foot. It looks like others on the market but the sole is where all the difference is. It is a great slip on and has a perfect casual style. These shoes give excellent support, and were comfortable to wear right out of the box. They appear larger than I expected. I am a busy surgeon and spend a lot of time on my feet. The Merrell World Passport has to be one of the best shoes I have ever owned. They look great with jeans or khakis (or scrubs) and have a truly comfortable footbed. They are constructed of high quality materials and the sole wears and grips well. I have paid a lot more for a lot less comfortable shoe. You will not be disappointed. I really like the Dansko Antoinette with supreme comfort–and actually have three pairs (black, brown, and burgandy). They are very light and are great for wearing all day. I’ve worn these shoes not only to work, but also on vacations with significant amounts of sightseeing by foot–and they’ve stood up to it and been great.I have no real problems with the shoes….I don’t take the best care with them (or with putting them on), and after three years or so of fairly continuous use, the back of the shoe begins to break down (but that’s really because I just shove my foot into the shoe each time, rather than putting it on the way you are supposed to…). Antoinette sandals are the best.
Great shoe, buying another pair to have on hand. True to size and the comfort is unbelieveable! I am on my feet ten hours a day walking at work, very nice shoe!. My wife got me a pair of Merrell shoes. She got them on line. I really like them. To me they do seem a little wider than other shoes but not bad. I have to say I really like the way they feel. This is my first pair of Dansko shoes and I love ‘em. I bought them because of the reviews on shoebuy and they were right. Needed no breaking in comfort from the first time you slip them on. I now only buy Merrell’s. This is my third pair. I wanted a shoe that could get me through airport security fast. I can slip these on and off easily and they come with the usual comfort provided by these particular soles. A great every-day shoe for work or play. A very comfortable shoe. It was a little tight to begin with (as most other leather shoes are), however with a little wear, they molded quite nicely to my feet. I thought the world map on the soles to be an interesting substitution for a normal tread pattern, and I haven’t noticed any problems with it.This is my first time purchasing Merrell, but it will not be my last.
