Pretty good shoe
Originally posted on Merrell
These shoes performed generally well with 2 exceptions. First, the fit seems to be made for wider feet. I have to lace the shoe ultra tight to prevent heel slippage. Second, although the soles are supposedly vibram, they wore out in a year.

Took these with me on my trip to Portugal, great support, bounce and grip for walking up cobblestoned streets in Lisbon and trails in Sintra. Highly recommend and glad to have some dedicated hiking shoes.

Not only am I huge fan of the fit and comfort, but this color combo is also BEAUTIFUL. Perfect mix of subtle neutral and lil' pop of fun color.

An okay shoe. Not as comfortable as my other Merrell hiker/shoe. I don't really like the mesh upper.

Great shoe

Shoes were incredibly comfortable right from start. There is a bit of “scrunching” of fabric in toe box but not a problem with performance

Hiking sneaker i've been looking for!
Originally posted on Merrell

I really like the tread on these, they have great grip on the trail and feel super reliable on different terrain. They’re a great hiking sneaker overall, especially for day hikes. The roomy toe box is a plus and keeps my feet comfortable. They’re also cute and stylish, which is a nice bonus. Definitely a solid pick if you want something functional but still good-looking.

Great hiking shoe

I can't say enough about these shoes for hiking. The tread is excellent, and they provide the exact amount of support while still being lightweight. They are definitely waterproof. Just finished a two week hiking trip in Patagonia. While I brought my heavier hiking boots, I did not need them.

Great shoe!

These are probably my favorite shoes I've ever gotten. Bought these for a 6 month backpacking trip (urban backpacking but still walking anywhere from 5-12 miles daily) and wore them every single day without ever getting a single blister! I'm getting a new pair for my trip this year. Would definitely recommend!

Moab Speed 2 GOR-TEX NOUGAT color
Originally posted on Merrell
This shoe is very well made outside and inside, but has no arch support. The main problem for me is it's narrow from the widest part of my foot forward. I really wanted them to fit.

my size but too small in the toe
Originally posted on Merrell
I ordered the Moab Speed 2 in my size (i wear Merrell hikers) however found the toe either too shallow or the boot too small. Having said this, the purchase and return were easy.

ITs a good-looking shoe. I am having issues with fit around my sensitive ankles with different vendors. I found them to be comfortable but a little bit bothersome. I have decided to keep them and continue to test before I use for my vacation which will have lots of walking.

Used these shoes on the Tallulah Gorge hike, and they worked great! This hike included a 40-degree incline for a quarter mile. I now wear them daily, and they continue to be very comfortable.

Great lightweight hiking option
Originally posted on Merrell
Yes, I recommend this
I needed a lighter shoe than my Merrel boots for an upcoming hiking trip in the Alps. These were great. I was able to move well with some pretty steep terrain. I did find that the top fabric on the toe box part of the shoe bunched up strangely which isn’t very attractive. Not a deal breaker but wanted to note.
