This Gardenia sandal, and Merrell's Palmetto sandal have the most comfortable sole that Merrell has made. You can walk for miles and stand for hours in wonderful comfort.

Too bad that Merrell has discontinued this sole. To me, this sandal with this sole gets 5 stars, (as does their Palmetto with its now discontinued sole). Merrell's new replacement sandals with their new soles to me get 0 stars. Someone needs to tell Merrell that they have made a big mistake and should rectify it.

I was talked into these sandals by descriptions stating they were good for people walking all day or on feet all day. I may be true for ONE day, but not day after day. The first few times I wore them they felt comfortable. After one month, big toe falls off shoe. The 'thong' is not sturdy enough to stay in place, so there is virtually no support to the foot at all. After wearing them for 2 weeks, developed a painful heel spur!!!

I wear these shoes during the entire warm season - they feel like they were built for my feet. They're durable, and only become more comfortable with wear. This was my replacement pair for another that didn't wear out, but that I'm using now for the beach, and being out in the yard in summer (they are a light color, and are showing their age after 2 summers of constant wear).

I already had a pair of these thongs and love them so much I had to have another pair. I wear these sandals more often than any I own. I will buy more as additional colors in my size become available. This particular pair has changed slightly from my original pair (it has leather on top instead of suede), but I think it just makes it look better.

All of my seven pairs get constant compliments from people who unfortunately do not know about these fantastic shoes, but rest asure, I sing their praise!! They have carried me through some very rough times. PLEASE do not discontinue these shoes.

The Merrell Gardena Sandals are the best I have ever owned. I am totally satisfied with them, and automatically put them on without giving a second thought. I had purchased two pair from a dealer last year, who at that time was reasonably priced. When I returned to purchase a third pair the price was double!! Thus, the reason for ordering directly from you. The sandals were reasonably priced so they are affordable. I have recommended them to several of my friends, as well as acquaintances. And, I am ready to order another pair!!

My friend has these sandals and recommended them to me. I wanted something that would actually be comfortable when wearing all day and walking a lot, but would not look orthopedic. These sandals are all that. The sole is a little narrow the way it is cut around the toes, but the sole is flexible, so it worked out okay as the shoes relaxed with wear. I would consider them in other colors next year!

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I was expecting exceptional quality in Merrell. I have other Merrells and I was disappointed with the durabilty of these sandals. I still love them, but I was hoping to have these around for a few years...but I think 2 years may be the most I can squeeze out of them. Which is a shame, considering the price I paid for them.

It is hard to find a comfortable sandal when you have a heel spur and wear orthotics . This sandal has such great arch support you do not need orthotics . I am on my second pair , not that the first ones wore out , I just wanted another color . I want one in every color because they are just that great .

Because I had a foot problem my podiatrist suggested Merrell



My podiatrist gave me a list of recommended shoes for my feet problems. Merrel was on the list. They are designed for women and have helped me a lot. The great cool and casual look fits my lifestyle perfectly!

I love Merrell shoes and won't wear any other brand! I've never had to "break in" a pair - they're comfortable from day one. The only complaint I have about these sandals is the footbed color - it's too light and shows wear quickly.
