Merrell Women's Lillyfern Sandal
Merrell Women's Lillyfern Sandal
When Merrell discontinued my favorite "Palmetto" sandal (I had about 10
different-colored pairs and still have 4 pairs I will never part with), I
was bereft and my feet were forced to live with all sorts of silly
humps and bumps with the other models. On a whim, I tried the new
Lilyfern, and ahhhhh ... I see another 6 pairs in my near future. (And
consequently more than a few Tomato Soup nights.)
The Lilyfern
footbed is a bit flatter than most Merrell sandals, without a lot of
"orthowaves", and this works well for my feet. The upper does come up a
bit higher than I would like, but I can get used to this. There is a
bit of a rise in the footbed just in front of the center of my instep,
but it is not so high that I feel my heel is lower than my toes.
If
you are new to Merrell sandals, they tend to be reported as "wide"
which will confound the narrower foot. Also, many models such as this
one do not come in half-sizes. Lucky for me - and I can wear anything
from an 8 to a 9 in shoes - the 8 fits me perfectly. But I do have some
old OLD Merrell sandals that have become too loose over time. And
although Merrell has often changed the material used in the footbed, no
matter what antimicrobial wonder I have tried, the sandal gets a bit
stinky.
All good reasons to buy more pairs.
