I buy that pair of shoes, because I had the same home .... ever since ... 3 years ... and are still standing, sun, snow, water them nothing mild scares ... and both stable ankle ... and Merell puts a cardboard shoe in chaussure..et no common pieces of paper ... ... but it's bete when the row (because I put them in autumn and winter) they keep their shape ... thank you .... to Merrell I forgot ... I also like the Merrell shoe for summer ...
