See Manhattan On Your Feet: JUNGLE MOC NUBUCK by Merrell Highly Recommended by Whom You Know
We are pleased to continue our coverage of Merrell-a brand that has impressed both the men and women of Whom You Know. We kick off our Men's coverage with the classic Jungle Moc Shoe! Fabulous for walking all over the city, the Jungle Moc features an easy slip on design, and it's built with comfort in mind. The perfect after sport moc! Our panelist tells Peachy:
I knew I was going to love these shoes! This is a more outdoorsy look for our readers that are more rugged than Peachy. It is always hard to tell what you're going to like on your feet when you are looking online, but my sister has a pair that is similar and she is so happy with them, so that enticed me to try this style route. Merrell also does a fabulous job of organizing their site with multiple shots of the shoe so you can really get an idea of how they will really be-unfortunately that has not been our experience with every brand we've tested. When they arrived, I was so excited I put these on straightaway! They were just as good in person as they were online. Exceeding my expectations, the style and feel of the shoe combined with the superior fit led me to even wear them out that night. These are a great look from day to night and now that we're going into the fall, they are ideal for that season too. We always strive for a fashion forward look in our testing standards. I did walk for miles in these; I cannot emphasize enough how comfortable these are. The additional great news is that they come in two excellent colors: either black or brown. I especially like the intelligent feature they added of the aegis microbe shield. This controls odor, staining, and all kinds of deterioration, and I love these shoes so much, that feature will keep them at their best as long as possible. We highly recommend the Jungle Moc by Merrell!
