the Magnums are _very_ comfortable and ive had mine for just over 2 years.  Not cheap, but the only thing ive got that has lasted me longer are my Docs and the pair of Army Boots i own

Quote from: maximusotterMerrells are trendy and overpriced. A few good models, to be sure, but I wouldnt trust them in the bush any more than some of the better Hi-Tecs.

Shoes Id trust to carry me up and down the Cascades: Vasque, Raichle, Asolo, Lowa, etc.

Merrell makes a few good looking womens urban hikers, but again, vastly overpriced.


My merrels have done me fine. Trekked up a couple of small mountains and along a fair sized (well deepest in the world actually) gorge in china and Im still using them now as every day shoes. Some of the most comfortable shoes Ive had, and I dont think Ã,£50 was that overpriced and that wasnt even at a cheap shop.

I got some Regatta walking shoes, waterproof and very comfy for 15 quid.

nooooooooooo not magnums - nasty nasty bits of footwear - as worn by remfs all over the british army cos they feel like trainers - fall apart after any prolonged use in the field & offer absolutely no ankle support.
