Ok, after asking questions I guess it's time to share my thoughts on some gear.

 

Merrell Cameleon II Stretch XCR

This is perhaps the worst apprach/hiking shoe I have ever tried.

Tie mechanism - this thing sucks, just a bungie cord, didn't hold when really tight and was way too long. also coudln't tighten some parts more then others for a perfect fit.

Rand - show basically doesn't have rand so takes damage directly to the soft leather.

 

I returned these shoes only after a few hikes, for replacement I got the Vasque Kota GTX.

 

Now this show rocks! I have used it backpacking, hiking, snow shoeing, and appoarches. they hardley show wear and are reallly comfortable. they also didn't leak one drop while snow shoeing all day long. They are probably average for weight. I also never got cold but that's probably more of a function of my feet not the shoes.
