Simply the best
I’m now on my second pair of these. Absolutely the best you can buy. My first pair lasted over 10 years and took a real bashing. Super comfy for rough terrain and clambering over rocky shoreline. Great in water and they dry out fast. Adjustable straps make them a perfect personalised fit. Highly recommended for outdoor pursuits and lightweight. Vibram soles make for super grip and traction. I’ve tried others and these out perform them all. Great quality.

Brilliant footwear.
Had my previous pair for over twenty years been in the desert, marshes and the sea and always remained strong and comfortable. These are a direct replacement and if anything are even more comfortable. Highly recommend product not the cheapest but exceptional value.

Sure footed, comfortable, tough walking shoe for all terrains.
Quite simply the best sandals and best walking sandals I have ever worn. These are my second pair. The first lasted 20 years and were used in all terrains. The new model is even more comfortable with simpler design, tough and sure footed. I have hiked in rugged landscape with them (urban and rural). A good fit, and a bargain when I bought them with a discount. But I would pay top money for them.

Surprisingly narrow and with a bump mid-sole
Merrell Kahuna 3. Very nice in summer, everywhere, including a sandy beach. They dry up quickly, the sand does not rub too badly, the lining is soft. The two problems are how the back strap is attached, and how the middle strap causes a bump under the outer side of the foot. The back strap rubs the outside of the foot, lateral malleolus. The strap should have been designed to go slightly lower. I had to trim it with a knife, and no problems since. Get the size slightly smaller than normal. Their boots are true to the size, and sandals have the sole of the same size at the boot, which makes it too large. ***Added later*** These sandals survived one season and revealed a design flaw - they are narrow due to the modern trend to have the front strips (those embracing the base of the toes, a.k.a. the ball of foot), coming out from the sole with a significant offset from its edge. As a result, the sole looks wide, but only a part of it homes the forefoot, thus making it feel quite narrow, even at the maximum adjustment. It also deforms the pinky, which is not healthy at all. Buying a larger size to address this issue does not help, because then the sole profile designed as anatomical begins to work against your anatomy, and the top line starts rubbing a little on the outer side (the upper non-adjustable trip to the heel patch). ***Added even more late*** Preparing for the new season, reviewing my gear - this is yet another design fault in Kahuna III. A bump on the sole developed where the middle strap is attached to the sole. It feels like a foot arch support extended to the outer side of the foot, very noticeable and unpleasant. It will not breake the foot, as I managed to walk quite a lot wearing these last summer, but still a concern. To conclude - Merrell Kahuna III are tolerable as the last moment purchase before holidays, need a modification to prevent injury, and have to be replaced by the following season, all due to design faults.

As Good as Expected
My summer walking sandals were getting well past their sell by date and then after a long time spent in a large shopping centre looking in every outdoor and shoe shop I had found nothing other than some ludicrously high priced options. Stopped for a coffee and browsed my phone to find these - which are exactly the same as the worn out shoes I wanted to replace. !! It always seems a bit boring to buy the same thing but I knew they would be comfortable and last reasonably well and they were half the price of many that I had been looking at and rejected. It was only after ordering that I found some really poor reviews and wondered if the design had changed. My concerns were unfounded. I am pleased to say they are exactly the same as my originals and for my very wide size 11 feet fit perfectly. I am still trying to understand reviews complaining they are not adjustable as they have adjustment across the foot and on the instep. the section across the foot has a non adjustable liner but that is thin soft very stretchy wet suit type material and goes around my huge wide size 11s in comfort. In conclusion these are reasonably lightweight, smart enough to wear casually as they do not look like hill walking kit, lightweight for packing, comfortable and at a reasonably sensible price. I know from experience that the soles last well. In fact although the uppers on my old shoes are really worn out the soles have masses of mileage left in them.

Excellent quality and comfort, made to last
Excellent quality and comfort, as always from Merrell, they may be a little more expensive than some other brands but my last pair lasted over 3 years and only needed replacement because the sole wore out through constant use.

Absolutely awesome - so much so I bought a second pair!
These are probably best rafters/sandals I've ever owned. They're expensive - I got them for a significantly reduced price. But the original high price (£80-100) is definitely justified considering fit & overall quality. They're extremely comfortable with no slippage no matter the terrain - I walked on rocks, stones, dunes, tough trails with no issues. The fit is great & true to size. Very importantly - they do not stink! No matter they get wet (sea, fresh water) or just from sweat they will not smell bad like many cheaper poor quality rafters will. Get these - they are definitely worth it.

The front part sole is very thin and has no support for the toes. It will definitely get stuck on boulders and steps if you don't lift the feet high enough. The toes feel in free dangling, no support, no protection. THe bridge fit is not good - there is a hard part sticking out that pushes painfully into the skin. Returned my pair because these don't feel comfoortable at all.

Ich trage im Sommer gerne Sandalen und habe bislang ein Paar einer anderen Marke getragen - bis diese mir auf La Palma buchstäblich zerbröselt sind.Daher brauchte ich Ersatz und habe diese Merrell-Treter für schmales Geld gekauft. Der Tragekomfort ist sehr gut. Nichts wackelt oder zwickt bei diesem Modell. Der Fuß wird gut belüftet und musste auch bereits den einen oder anderen Tauchgang - beim Paddeln! - mitmachen. Alles ohne Probleme. Keine Naht hat sich gelöst und der Klettverschluss arbeitet auch einwandfrei! Wichtig: Die Schuhe fallen eher etwas größer aus. Wenn man sonst Merrell-Schuhe kauft, muss man locker 1,5 Größen dazurechnen. Ist hier NICHT der Fall. Die gewohnte Größe kaufen - und selbst dann, sind die Schuhe noch ein Tick zu groß.

Jag köpte svart 41'or för 340 kronor. Jättebra pris! Sköna. Funkar fint även i vatten.

Calidad inmejorable de la marca. Las sandalias son muy cómodas y la talla corresponde con la descripción de Merrell. La suela es perfecta para caminar ya que usa Vibram. Gran compra
