Used Merrell shoes and footwear typically sell for $11 to $170 (about £8 to £126) depending on the pair and its condition. Used footwear sells well when the seller answers the two questions every buyer has and most listings ignore: how much life is left in the sole, and whether the upper is real leather or a synthetic. A photograph from underneath settles the first, and the material stamp inside the shoe settles the second.

Sizing and fit on Merrell shoes and footwear
Merrell builds hiking shoes on a roomy last with wide fittings available, and marks its waterproof versions on the shoe itself. Whether a pair is the waterproof variant changes what it is worth and how it should be described.
- Hiking shoes and low walking styles make up the bulk of sales and turn on the outsole condition
- Boots and the waterproof variants sit above them and stand or fall on the membrane
- Because these are worn outdoors, tread depth is the honest measure of remaining life and it photographs well
What to check before you buy
Photograph the outsole tread from directly beneath. Worn-smooth lugs are what ends a walking shoe, and no amount of upper condition compensates for them.
For the checks that apply to any used shoes and footwear regardless of the maker, see the guide to buying used shoes and footwear.
What you keep when you sell
On a typical $90 Merrell pair, a marketplace charging 20% takes $18, one charging 13.6% takes $12 and one charging 10% takes $9. WishThrift charges neither side, so you keep the whole $90.
Listing your Merrell shoes and footwear
- Include the box if you still have it and say so in the title. On collectable styles the box is a meaningful share of what the buyer is paying for
- Clean them properly and replace worn heel tips before photographing. A fresh tip costs very little and removes the first objection a buyer raises

Questions
What should I look at on a used walking shoe?
By the tread and the midsole rather than the upper. Photograph the sole from below so the lug depth is visible, and press the midsole to check it still springs back.
Does a waterproof membrane still work in a used shoe?
Sometimes, but it is the first thing to fail and it cannot be repaired. If the shoe is the waterproof variant, say whether it has been tested recently rather than repeating the maker’s original claim.
