Merrell

Maipo 3 Aerosport Water Shoe - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve worn these around lakes, docks, and mellow coastal trails, and they shine when things get wet. The mesh dries fast, the fit feels secure without being stiff, and the outsole grips surprisingly well on damp surfaces. They’re comfortable enough for everyday wear but built to jump straight into the water without a second thought."

We slip into the Maipo 3 Aerosport Water Shoe when our day might drift from pavement to shoreline without warning. Merrell shapes this design for breezy comfort and fast drainage, pairing an airy mesh upper with a soft step-in feel that works just as well for casual afternoons as it does for creek crossings or paddle launches. The ventilation keeps our feet cool, even when the sun reflects off the water.

The lightweight EVA midsole cushions every step around town, while the Merrell Air Cushion helps steady us on slick docks and wet decks. A sticky rubber outsole adds reliable traction when surfaces turn slippery, and recycled materials throughout make the shoe a more responsible pick for all our warm-weather routines. It’s the pair we reach for on days when water is part of the plan—or a pleasant surprise.
