Heel drop
Great fit, great sole. The only thing I don’t like as much is the height of the heel which can lead to a twisted ankle. It took awhile to get used to, but has been good enough that I ordered a second pair.

No sole
Comfortable shoe. Lightweight foam construction is great. Cool design and colors. However, the Vibram sole wore out in 2 months of light use. Maybe they aren't made for sidewalks? Disappointing. Do not buy.

Very flimsy top so lace eyelets cut through
Do NOT buy this shoe: the lace eyelets cut through in a very short time, rendering the shoe useless. A very bad design making the material on the top of the shoe so FLIMSY that the lacing cuts through the material in no time at all. I've run many tens of thousands of miles of trail in my 35 years; never seen a design fault like this. (Otherwise it would be a nice shoe but now I have to discard this pair.) Leaving a sour taste in my mouth... See also the other reviews for pix.

AnkleBreaker 5000's
Look, these are good shoes. I think the lightweight, comfortable liner and stiff foam could make for a really great mud or gravel shoe. But Merrell decided to make a lightweight "trail" running shoe with little to no ankle support and a stiff bottom in lieu of actually making a shoe built for running on variable surfaces that make change up that angle of your foot at a moment's notice. These are not built to protect your foot, but they are built to go fast. I would say, if you are looking for a shoe with ridiculous lug length, grip beyond measure, and a stiff sole that will rebound you through the finish line of a muddy or gravel race, you can certainly buy these. But if you run mountain marathons, if you're heading up and down rugged, ragged terrain full of jagged rocks, you are not gonna enjoy this. Or maybe I just have soft ankles. Having ran a few ultra-marathons in Brooks Cascadia 17's and Altra Lone Peak 7's, both on opposite ends of the spectrum of padding, somehow this shoe goes over the line to become the worlds stiffest trail runner on record. Would not recommend for your next mountain-pass race. TLDR; Fun, bouncy but stiff road running shoe that has the grip for trail but the ankle support of a feather in a hurricane. Fine for mud and gravel.

Torn, so much potential. Read Full Review
This is a review for the Agility Peak 5s and not all of Merrell’s products. I love Merrell’s footwear and they have always exceeded expectations of comfort, durability, and quality. However, while every other product I’ve gotten from them has been exceptional unfortunately the Agility Peak 5s have let me down. Comfort, fit, grip, feel, and performance were all great and if it was just those I was basing this rating on then it would get 5 stars. However, the eyelets on these shoes are not durable. I have taken them on several backpacking trips, day hikes, and the rim-to-rim in GCNP. But, total I’ve maybe put ~70 miles on these and to have the eyelets ripping through the way they are already is a huge bummer. We’ll see if they’ll even make it to 100 miles before fully ripping through. Bottom line if it wasn’t for the low quality of the eyelets I would 100% recommended these and give them 5 stars. But, until the durability issues are fixed and resolved I just can’t recommend them. All my other Merrell’s have held up for years but these unfortunately have fallen short. Please fix this issue in newer versions Merrell!
