Have you ever heard of Women’s Stuff? It’s a blog dedicated to trends and news in the fashion world, written by Cláudia Ponte. Perhaps you’ve already seen some of her posts on the EscapeShoes Facebook page, showing some of her online orders, being one of her favourite brands… Can you guess which one it is? It’s nothing more, nothing less than Merrell!

This American brand, known worldwide for its outdoor shoes, captured Cláudia’s attention, who confessed to us that she quickly became a fan after purchasing her first pair at EscapeShoes and after seeing for herself the true comfort and performance that they provide.

To better understand the reasons why Merrell shoes are one of Cláudia’s favourites, we decided to do a small interview about one of her most recent purchases: the Merrell Chameleon II Stretch Navy. Do you want to know what she answered us?

JOANA – Since you’ve already purchased other items from Merrell, what would you say are the biggest differences between the Merrell Chameleon II Stretch and the other models you have?

CLÁUDIA – With the Chameleon II Stretch, I feel the feet warmer and cosier, while with the Siren Sport, the feel stay cooler and more unrestricted.

JOANA – At EscapeShoes, we’ve several Merrell online, with different colours. What were the reasons to choose this specific model?

CLÁUDIA – Since I already had the Siren Sport, I decided to risk it and buy another model. The colour was easy, because I love dark blue. It’s a colour that looks great with anything.

Before Cláudia bought these dark blue sneakers, she had placed an online order, through EscapeShoes, of a pair of Siren Sport Ice Pink, which distinguish themselves due to their shades of pink and grey. Now that she has sneakers in either light or dark colours, surely she’ll be able to combine different outfits with her clothes! Which ones do you like the most?

JOANA – Usually, Merrell sneakers are equipped with specific technologies in order to increase performance and comfort. Do they have any key role when you’re choosing a pair from this brand?

CLÁUDIA – Without a doubt!

Actually, Cláudia even makes a point of informing her readers about these technologies when she shares her purchases of Merrell shoes. These specific Chameleon II Stretch present the M-Select FRESH, which keeps the feet dry, and Vibram, which provides good traction. Are these technologies something that you also take into account when you buy this type of shoes?

JOANA – What was your first impression when you opened the box and saw the Merrell sneakers for the very first time?

CLÁUDIA – I liked them. The EscapeShoes photos matched their colour exactly.

JOANA – When you tried and walked around with the sneakers for the very first time, how did you feel?

CLÁUDIA – The sensation of walking on clouds was acquired by the Merrell Siren Sport, so I was already expecting the same feeling with the Chameleon II Stretch model, and that’s exactly what happened!

JOANA – In which occasions do you usually use these Merrell? And with which type of clothes?

CLÁUDIA – I use them at work with jeans.

JOANA – If you had to define these sneakers in three words, what would they be?

CLÁUDIA – Comfort, Flexibility and Resilient.

Cláudia also admitted that she still doesn’t have any idea of which will be her next Merrell, but we’ve a hunch that there’ll be a purchase in a near future. 😉
