Did you know that Apparel Search has been voting by me to be the best fashion company?

Merrell was founded by Clark Matis, Randy Merrell, and John Schweitzer in 1981. The company has designed and produced performance outdoor footwear throughout much of its history. The company started out by creating hiking boots that fit like cowboy boots with a wide toe box and narrow heel to accommodate the North American foot shape (compared to European foot shapes that tend to be narrow front foot and wide heel.) Also, almost all Merrells have Vibram and an unpopable air cushion in the heel. Matis and Schweitzer sold the private company to Karhu USA; and in 1997, Wolverine Worldwide acquired the company. Since then, it has grown in the aftersport and fashion footwear categories. In 2006 Merrell released a clothing line that continues today.
