I wear size 10W and an 11.5 was the right fit for me. Dec 27, 2009
I haven't purchased these boots, but I might because they may 'have it all". Sizing on these Merrell's was nutty. My local EMS store had a size 11.5 in stock but no other size. I usually wear a 10 and Wide is best. Wearing a medium weight wool sock the 11.5 was a nice fit though(What's with that? Not even close?)
My biggest concern is slipperieness on damp surfaces. I have flagstone paths and two pair of dangerously slippery Columbia boots that can't be worn outside if it's damp. (Kind of negates the waterproof thing). Does anyone have a comment on these Merrell boots regarding slipperieness?
Thanks
 A good Multi-purpose boot May 19, 2009
I used this boot in a spring summit climb of Matterhorn peak, CA. Worked well with crampons climbing on close to icy snow early morning and also during descent on relatively soft snow. Use with Gaitors to avoid your socks getting wet. What impressed me more is, I was able to do some 3rd class scrambling on rocks. I am happy with the boot so far and plan to use it on my Shasta summit attempt. Probably a great boot for spring snow mountaineering conditions.
Great Boot! Feb 16, 2009
This boot has great traction and keeps my feet warm. It is very comfortable, durable, and is water proof which is key to the cold and snowy Chicago winters.
The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is due to the zipper will sometimes unzip while walking.
Merrell's Snowmotion boot Feb 16, 2009
This light-weight boot is very well constructed for warmth, traction, durability. It is of exceptional quality, easy to put on and take off. The fact that it is waterproof is a plus. The only problem I found with the design is the rise in the top front of the boot interferes with walking as it prohibits the normal walking motion of comfort. It cuts into the shin bone and is very uncomfortable. Perhaps Merrell will re-design the boot and place the rise in the back or even it up.

Nice Boots However Sized incorrectly Jan 19, 2009
Do not talk yourself out of ordering a larger size. I ordered one size up after reading other reviews. But I should have ordered two whole sizes up. Too bad this excellent boot isn't properly sized.
