Merrell

It all started with a handmade pair of cowboy boots. After completing his training, Randy Merrell made the leap from an industrial shoe company to hand-making boots. Finally, he decided to try his hand at hiking and trekking boots. The new models spread rapidly and found a loyal fan base worldwide.

Inspired by the quality and durability of the Merrell boots, professional users such as the well-known Navy Seals of the American armed forces also became aware of the boots. Since then, numerous Seal teams have relied on the durable Merrell boots for their demanding missions around the world. They were soon joined by many other police and military units worldwide - which further increased Merrell's popularity.

Merrell Boots were also continually used in film productions such as the American war film “American Sniper” based on the story of Chris Kyle. Chris Kyle (most successful American sniper & Navy Seal) wore Merrell boots on all his missions and also relied on the proven quality.
