About a year ago I saw these at Popular and thought they looked very comfortable. 6 months ago I noticed a lot of people at work wearing them, and other brands of the same concept of shoe.
I got a pair for my birthday in December and have been wearing them since. They are dressy enough that you can get away with wearing them to the office, they are very comfortable and convienent, no more tying your shoes, they slip on and off with little effort but do not fall off. Basically it's like wearing slippers all day. Best of all, they have the same sole as other Merrell hiking shoes. Thus if you wear these all the time, when you put your boots on (if you wear Merrells) they feel the same on your foot. The tread is a cross between Merrell's standard pattern and a more typical walking shoe and they do fine on everything I've used them for.
I probably wouldn't hike in them, but they are a great shoe for when I'm not hiking.

I've heard nothing but good things from people who wear these shoes. Unfortunately, I think they're ugly, so I don't wear them, but I'm thinking of getting the Jungle Slides which I think look a little better.
