I do wish these came in a wide width. I have wide feet, and also feet that are substantially different size from each other - almost a full size difference. So it can be a challenge to find footwear that fits properly. My biggest foot is technically about a 9.5 to 10 in length, but for regular width shoes, I typically need to go to a 10.5 or even 11 to fit the width acceptably. My last hiking boots were wide width Montrails in a 9.5, which were great in width but a little short. For these Merrell Crestbound, I ordered a 10.5, and it's a fair bit long in length, but just barely wide enough for my larger foot. It's a little cramped on my small toe. It fits about the same as most shoes in 10.5 normal width, so I wouldn't say it runs large or small, in my experience. I do really like the extra wiggle room in front of my toes, especially for long downhill hikes. However, the extra length means I've needed to adopt some heel-lock lacing techniques to help keep my heels secure. If these boots had come in wide, I could have gone down a 10 and avoided some of that, but oh well. I couldn't find any wide width hiking boots I liked anywhere near the price of these awesome Merrells. The price is so good that I seriously considered buying two pairs of boots, a different size for each foot. But for now I'll stick with the one size. I was afraid going to a smaller size for my smaller foot would just be too narrow.
Aside from the challenge of fitment, these boots are very comfortable. They are still nowhere near broken in, having only been on about 10 miles of hiking. The uppers were initially incredibly stiff, but they are already much softer and more comfortable. I expect them to only get better as time goes on. They seem to breath fairly well (as I'd expect with Gore-Tex), as my feet were neither excessively hot nor sweaty worn all day. Though, the extra room I think helps a bit in that respect.
I wore these bad boys immediately on an all day hike up Mt. Marcy (The highest elevation in N.Y.) in March. The temperatures dipped into the single digits and ice covered the trail. It was a 18 mile hike in terrible conditions. They were completely water-proof and warm the entire time. My feet were slightly sore after the all day hike but not bad, especially because I did not break them in beforehand.
I can't honestly tell you about their longevity yet because it is too early to tell. But they seem to be of excellent condition. Cons- I have wide feet and I wish that they had a "wide" shoe in my size. The shoestring hooks at the top are shallow so you have to take your time lacing them up, sometimes the shoestring pops out of the hook if you are not careful. But once they are in there and have tension you are good to go.
Solid product. Warmest boots I have ever owned.
UPDATE: well after almost 60 days, the seam at the toe has split, poor thread/stitching, called Amazon and they want me to return them and then they will send a new pair.... these are my work boots, now I don't know about everyone else but I don't have 2 or 3 pairs of work boots to change out and wear.... I told Amazon just send me a new pair and upon arrival I will promptly send the others back.... (Common sense) but they will NOT Help, they say I have to return these, then wait for a refund, then order a different pair and wait for those to arrive... Poor customer service at best. and these boots over 100.00 you would expect better craftsmanship, but that is just not the case, very poor quality thread and stitching.
