Your Top Questions About Our New Ankle Boot, Answered!

Here’s your top questions answered about the Oberon Boot!

Keep reading as we walk you through everything you need to know: fit, features, colours, and why Oberon might just become your new favourite all-rounder...

Q: What is the Oberon Boot?

A: Our Oberon Boot is our widest boot yet, with a rugged design and a generous D-width fit, perfect for dog walks, garden duties, footy, or a trip to the local pub! 

Q: Why a wide-fit boot? 

A: Our community has been asking for a wide-fit boot for a while, and we wanted to deliver! While the Bobbi Boot (B-width) remains a favourite, Oberon offers a roomier D-width for anyone looking for a more generous fit.

We also noticed a gap for a rugged, versatile style that can take you from a muddy footy club to the local pub in comfort and confidence. 

Q: How does Oberon compare to Bobbi?

A: Oberon and Bobbi share the same high-quality materials, 100% waterproofing, and slip/temperature ratings - so you get the same reliable performance you love in Bobbi.

The main differences? Oberon has a wider D-width fit, a squarer, slightly more rugged toe, and extra durability features like a dual-layer reinforced heel and toe, a hidden mudguard, and an anti-microbial spray. Basically, it’s designed for a roomier, tougher, all-weather feel while keeping that Merry DNA you know and love!

Q: Is the Oberon Boot unisex?

A: Yes! Just like all our styles, our Oberon Boot is unisex; made for anyone who loves adventure.

Q: How do I find my size?

A: We recommend checking the Oberon size chart against your foot length to find the best fit. (Even if you’re a big Bobbi fan, Oberon sizing is a little different due to the new last and wider fit!) 

Check the Oberon size chart to find your size!

Q: Will smaller sizes (36/37) or larger sizes (46+) be available in the future?

A: Oberon is a brand-new silhouette for Merry People, and with every new design, we take a thoughtful approach to manufacturing to reduce waste and make sure we get it right. Rather than releasing a full- or extended-size range straight away, we’re launching with a more focused selection based on early customer feedback. This helps us ensure that any future sizes deliver the same comfort, performance, and quality you expect - and that they’re genuinely loved when they land!

You can register your interest in sizes to help us fine-tune the Oberon fit and sizing availability.

Q: What colours does Oberon come in? 

A: We’ve got four nature-inspired shades to choose from! 

  • Storm Blue: Inspired by deep ocean days, this dusty blue shade with lighter, elevated outsole is the perfect go-to hue for on-the-go life. 
  • Straw: A warm, sun-washed lighter shade inspired by late-summer light, this true classic mellow yellow boot brings a lightness to country life and city commutes.
  • Espresso: A rich, earthy tone grounded in functionality, this moody, mud-loving colour works for city weekdays or country weddings, making dressing easier every day. 
  • Stone: Stone brings classic, concrete-sturdy edge from office to outdoors, farm days to more formal occasions, without missing a beat. Stone is your fuss, minimal stress shade from light showers to heavy storms.
