Something like a Merrell trainer?

OK, they are neither stylish nor beautiful, but I live in Merrell trainers. I need to wear something that's a different shape for my feet, due to (ahem) wearing the last pair too much. Need a change.

So, and setting aside the whole question of why a 30-something woman spends life in trainers, what is the closest thing to a Merrell?

Camel active? Seen them on jones bookmaker site.
Campers?
Out of interest, which merrells do you live in, cos I'm in the market for some comfy trainers?

Oh and Cushe?
Seen some on amazon I fancy.

PippiL any Merrels, actually, though I prefer the ones that are lower-cut. The ones I have at the mo are called Avians (ha ha they all have pants names) and they are v lightweight but waterproof. I love love them because they are so hard-wearing. They just hang together no matter what you put them through.

Thanks and for the tips, will follow up!

Have you tried The North Face Hedgehog? I own an ancient pair of Merrel Chameleons and an equally ancient pair of TNF Hedgehogs and would struggle to pick my favourite pair. I switch between the two; I tend to wear the Merrels on days when I'm in uni or I know I'm going to be in doors a lot as the Hedgehogs are Goretex and can get a tad warm

Check out Go Outdors They've got good prices for TNF and there's also some lovely Brasher trainers. My current walking boot is a boy's Brasher and they're great :)
