Holes at the toe-crease after 10 days of city walking! I have orthotics and have a hard time finding shoes I can walk in that don’t cause foot agony. The original Moab speed winter version have been a success so I had high hopes for these boots. I have worn the boots 10 times in the last 11 days, city walking only, I haven’t even tested out the waterproofness yet! Both boots have worn a hole where the toe boxes creases. So disappointed 😢

Comfortable in very cold weather
Originally posted on Merrell
Bought 2 weeks ago, have been wearing them constantly in sub-zero temps and snow. I’m finding them comfortable all day and having no issues with cold or wet feet. Great so far. Am not as happy with color, though for the price, I can deal with it . I bought the “grey” with green stripes. Weird for winter but it saved me a bunch of $ to do so.

Too big in the ankle area but perfect in the toe. I wish these fit me better. I had originally ordered the 9 but they were too short in the toe but perfect in the ankle. Honestly I should have just sent the 9.5 back but I have worn this size before with Merrill’s and never had a sizing issue so I went on a hike with them about 2 weeks ago. Otherwise they are nice looking and seem to be a great boot. I do not see myself wearing these boots often. I wasted my money but I guess you live and learn.

Great lightweight hiking shoe for travel
Originally posted on Merrell
Yes, I recommend this
Very pleased with my first Merrill shoe. Purchased for a trip to Africa with two days of easy hiking and remainder of trip on Safari (mostly seated in vehicles). Trip included walking thru airports and a German city on a 11 hour stopover. I had no foot pain, blistering or discomfort throughout trip. Loved the light weight of shoe! I have a narrow foot, but read that shoe is a little wider and given cold weather sock layers and travel swelling, I took a chance based on some happy reviews. Note I found the shoe on sale and after using reward points, it was a low risk investment that paid off for me. I wear a size 8.5 and bought a half size up, size 9. Back at home, I’ve walked 3-5 miles a day and find the fit is too big/wide for me in thinner socks, so I’ll reserve these for colder days (thick socks) and travel. I would order another pair in my true size based on reasons stated for sizing up. Happy Hiking!

Comfort, support and safety.

Highly recommended for the comfort and support the Moab Speed 2 Mid GORE-TEX provided. We wore it for long moderate to challenging hikes (for instance, those historic pilgrim paths). Even after long hours of wear, the feet do not feel sore, certainly not hurt. It’s not exactly water proof, but at least offers same level of comfort and support after air-dry from a complete soak episode.

My wife loves these shoes. She has a bad knee and hip. These shoes helped to minimize her pain while she hiked Banff.

When my husband and I decided to take a trip to Iceland, my main concern was that I was going to be cold the entire time (I’m always cold), but more specifically, that my feet would be cold. There is nothing worse than cold, wet feet. After nine days of trekking through, behind, over, and under waterfalls, stomping through black sand beaches and many, many, icy puddles while enduring nonstop rain, I’m happy to report that these shoes delivered! Not only did my feet stay dry through all of the above conditions, they were extremely comfortable! Also worth noting: I did not wear or break them in before the trip—fresh out of the box they felt great! I ordered my usual size as well as a half size up and ended up going with my usual size. I wore them with thick wool socks and they were perfect. Highly recommend!

Stiff around ankle and painful
Originally posted on Merrell
Quite stiff around the ankle area. I feel quite painful after a few minutes wear. Originally I thought maybe because the shoes are new, but still I feel really uncomfortable after a few tries. And the most important thing is they won’t accept return because I wore it for. a couple hours.

Incredible comfort with these boots. These were so great for a recent trip with some days walking up to 20000 steps.

Took on alpine scrambling routes
Originally posted on Merrell
Yes, I recommend this
Held up pretty well on scrambling routes on Colorado 14ers. The one downside is that because they have a higher cushion, it feels less stable to smeer rock surfaces, so you would want a more level shoe

Great boot- runs roomy
Originally posted on Merrell

Great hiking boot! Took them out of the box on a week long trip to Iceland and they were comfortable from the start. Did a little scrambling and they felt sturdy and supportive. They also worked well for Icelands wet weather- my feet felt dry the entire week even though we got caught in the rain a few times. I wish I had bought a half size smaller though... I purchased my sneaker size, which is half a size up from my regular shoes, thinking the extra room would be better for tired feet but the toe box feels a little too roomy and my foot slips a little inside the boot while climbing down rocks.

My Cinderella Slippers
Originally posted on Merrell
I love love love my Cinderella slippers…. I walked over 1000km on the Camino del Norte in Spain plus additional kilometers in France in these boot, plus all my training… carried a 20-25lbs pack and they performed like a Merrell boot should. They were extremely comfortable, I had no problems drying them out when I got them soaked hiking all day in wet mud, and took a brush to them in the morning and they looked great. I loved them so much I came home and quickly bought another pair so when i need them they won’t be sold out. I usually usually wear an 8 shoe, 8.5 boot, but for this I bought a 9. They are light weight, performed well, held up well, and I am still wearing them. The price was pretty good …. But the performance was fantastic!

GREAT BOOTS !

I bought these a couple months ago for my recent trip to Washington! I have plantar fasciitis and got these initially because they have a big toe box. Let me tell you, my feet felt great even after 20 miles of hiking numerous straight up and straight down hills. I got a 5.5 (which is usually my normal size), and I wasn’t disappointed at all. My feet felt great besides being on them everyday hiking the Washington mountains there was no plantar pain & I was able to get up the next day and have no issues! While the people I was with was having foot pain the initial day/rest of the week. I initially got them on sale! Even if they aren’t, they would be worth it ! (I got the purple/green)

The best hiking shoes! These are incredibly lightweight, but durable! I hiked a week straight in the alps without even breaking them in and ended up with 0 blisters. They were great for the cold and the rain in the alps all the way to the extreme heat and red rock in Zion. Would easily recommend these to anyone!

I've had my shoes for nearly a year, wear daily at work. I'm up on my feet at least 8 hours a day. My feet don't hurt, my back don't hurt. It feels like they surround my feet. I love them and will be buying another pair in a month or two. These are the best shoes I've ever owned!!!

Pretty good after trying 6 boots
Originally posted on Merrell
Yes, I recommend this
I bought 6 pair of boots to try on for Alaska and these are the only ones I kept. These are goretex and lightweight which i prefer, they seemed to be waterproof after a few rainy hikes, but even after one trail the black pair I bought are already discolored for good so I gave up trying to wash them. They stayed comfortable after a 30k step day and took no breaking in which is great. I recommend sizing up a half size. I wish they were a tad less boxy in the toe where they feel too spacious for me. I hope these last or will be disappointed in the price tag
