These super comfortable and light weight shoes accompanied me to Ireland. I didn’t want heavy boots or shoes that would tire me out yet I needed something waterproof because obviously we would have rainy weather. These were much better than expected, we had super long days of walking miles and miles and I was in no pain at the end of the day. I used them for 8 days straight and zero complaints. Even my husband was surprised how light they were and that they did so well in rain, rocky terrain and light mud. These shoes will definitely be going on more adventures with me!!

I wore the shoes while climbing Mt. Fuji. The terrain was aggressive and it beat up my shoes a bit. The soles are firm, but they have scratches after the climb. Overall, the shoes were comfortable to wear on the steep gradient. The traction was good as well. It was a bit raining, but my feet stayed dry due to Gore-Tex feature. Overall, these are good shoes.

The shoes are super comfortable and very good looking. The waterproof works very well. I was kinda afraid to use them in mud because I didn’t want to make them so dirty. I have the white colour so I didn’t know if it would be easy to clean them. Surprisingly, after a muddy hike, I just left them in soapy water for a couple of hours and then rinsed very well. They look like new again. Happy with my purchase!

First time with Merrell for hiking or running hybrid shoes. I am using these for light hikes for dog walking and running to keep up on the trails to stay active. The shoes run true to size or maybe a little smaller, and I find them a little bit narrow for me specifically. They are acting like stability shoes so no major foot roll. They hold up well on uneven terrain. They are robust uppers too and easily self clean when going from mud to a wet puddle. The Gortex uppers are very helpful in the rain for short distances. Good grip. Not for heavy duty hikes. Suitable for trail runs.
Let-me-say… these shoes delivered. I got to break them in during a 6.5 mile trail run in some rain. The terrain for the trail was muddy, rocky and we had some stream crossings, one including a log. Really got to test the grip. In comparison to other trail runners. The shoes have full support of the heel, mid and in/outsole. Good grip and a roomy toe box. What I loved the most about them was, although they were not the Morphlite. Which are Merrells' shoes meant for both, trail and road running. The Agility were not uncomfortable when walking on pavement. I would recommend for trail runs where you might have a significant amount of road to walk on before getting back on dirt. I've used other brands of trail runners on pavement and they were hurting the bottom of my feet.
I personally do not find these very comfortable. I generally wear flatter shoes. I bought these for an upcoming trip where I will be trekking a portion of the Santiago de Compostela and wanted to make sure I had good footwear. I've been breaking them in for 2 - 3 weeks, just going for shorter 3 mile walks each day and they haven't gotten any more comfortable really. The base of the shoe just seems like it is too much. If you are used to a shoe that has a chunkier base than this shoe might be for you, but if you're a person with flat feet or wears flatter shoes during workouts or hiking, this shoe is probably uncomfortable for you.
Bought for serious trail running but other chronic injuries have precluded too many miles there… for the moment…but I have worn them for hiking many, many miles, outdoor cycling, walking for days on trips, a couple of indoor/outdoor workouts, some shorter (3-5 mile easier trail runs) and they are my favorite running shoes of all time.I have higher arches that always require a custom orthotic-not needed for these. Narrow heel, narrower than average, low volume feet just love these shoes. Grip has been excellent on every type of terrain but haven’t tried snow. LOL. So stable, excellent cushion while still providing firm support. I was worried the thin tongue would bother my low volume feet but nope, with decent hiking or running socks they are totally fine.

Now I must decide-buy a back up pair or see if somehow the next version is even better? Merrell for hiking boots, trail runners, and hiking sandals. One of my absolute favorite brands for my goofy feet. Comfort and fit are my primary concerns these days but hey, they also look very cool.
I like shoes that you try on and are immediately comfortable. These were not. I bought them on line without trying them on, so I decided to keep them and try them. The first time I wore them to play disc golf. My right foot hurt so bad, I changed shoes for the second round. I kept wearing them for casual rounds and they were ok. Well yesterday did two rounds of 18 holes in a tournament and realized my foot didn’t hurt at all. So I guess they just needed to be broken in a little. The tread in the bottom is great for hiking up hills.
I bought this shoe and it arrived over the weekend. Originally, I wanted something waterproof as I purchased the goretex since I will be wearing these commuting to work in the winter, and definitely needed a shoe with overall great cushioning as I am having foot pain. The shoes were amazing, I wore them all day over the weekend with no pain on the ball of my foot. So far I've worn them to commute to work twice, since I have a fairly long distance to travel by foot after the train to work, and they have been so comfortable. I haven't had a chance to try them in wet weather yet, but am looking forward to it. Got my regular sizing in Merrell, and even with a thicker sock, it's perfect.
My Agility peak 4's have been a lifesaver- they accommodate my orthotic and helped me get moving again after toe surgery. No other Merrells have worked for me- usually due to ankle discomfort and tight toebox. I really wanted black for winter so was thrilled to see Agility peak 5 in black and waterproof. . But why oh why keep the name and dramatically change the shoe!! The heel now has a very course lining instead of smoothe- almost like a brillo pad so you have to wear thick socks. The toe box is now tighter. I was able to remove the insole and put in my own r own orthotic.
