This shoe was selected to be my primary shoe for vacation because of its features. Lightweight and comfortable it provided the support needed while exploring several hiking trails and walking paths from sea to summit. Great quality and fit. Would highly recommend.

Older version was much better
Really disappointed in these shoes. I have a prior version of Merrell Novas that are very comfortable. These Nova 3's put an undo amount of pressure on the inside of your knees. Maybe there is more padding on the outside edge of the shoes than the inside of the shoe? Not sure, but I really wanted ...

Very stylish looking, comfortable shoe.

I purchased these a few weeks ago, overall I'm pleased with the fit and comfort. The only issue I'm having is the heels slip quite a bit when walking, feels like my foot wants to lift out . Don't think I would buy this style shoe again

Very comfortable and very good shoe however I noticed one issue. The insoles of the non-gortex model tends to move towards the back of the shoe forcing you to secure it with tape to keep it in place. This is the second pair to have this issue. My newest pair was received 4 days ago and the insoles are already moving out of place
