Can remember when purchased maybe 3 months not for hiking but for work on concrete floors. The sole is separating from the shoe.

Comfortable, light weight, good fit. Not much more to say than it’s a great hiking boot for me and I would purchase again and again.

These boots were great until they failed.

First let me say I loved these boots. Lightweight and waterproof they were perfect for my morning walk - mostly concrete sidewalks and metaled / gravel graded trails with occasional uneven ground. Lacing was good - I didn't experience failures of the lacing points like I have with other boots. They arrived almost exactly a year before this review and I used them perhaps three hours per week - so around 150 hours wear, possibly 500 miles walked. Recently the uppers started to separate from the soles adjacent to the MTP joint. Both boots are failing. Before failing I would rate them five stars. After failure, three stars. Great if you only need them for a short time, they are not made to last. With the level of wear on the soles, this may be OK - it's close to time to replace them.

Narrow sole compared with Moab 2. Tighter overall comfort. Better support. Lightweight. The toe design is better than Moab 2

Comfy, some issues though
Originally posted on Merrell

Comfy, maybe fit a little small. Feel pretty sturdy but still comfy. Good grip. Definitely waterproof, I took these snowshoeing and stayed dry. My main gripe is that you can feel the Gore Tex lining sagging in the toe box. Kinda rubs and drives me nuts. Don’t know if this is how they’re supposed to be or if this is a defect.

Grear shoes for work use everyday love that they are gore tex. The only thing i have issue with is the size is a little odd. I usuall wear a 10 1/2 is a little small, and the 11 is just a little big.

Comfortable and dependable boots

This is my second pair of Merrell boots. My previous pair, the Merrell Moab Beluga (which is now discontinued), served me well for nearly 10 years during occasional trips to harsh environments. I particularly appreciate the Moab Speed 2 Mid Gore-Tex for its comfort, wide size availability, and breathability. They are waterproof and true to size, although I recommend choosing a wide size for a better fit. While I haven't tested them in the field yet, I plan to take them as a spare on my next volunteer trip (my primary tactical boots are Haix).

Lighter & warmer than my non-GORE-TEX Moabs

After breaking these in around the garage, I marched through snow a few times in Tahoe. Definitely comfortable, warm, and dry, even in the melting ice/snow conditions. I should have sprung for GORE-TEX with my previous Moab boots. These fit best with thicker wool socks

Great trail shoes

The MOAB Speed 2 Gore-tex are very comfortable on the trail. My first use was on an eight mile trail hike. They have a medium firm soul that provides great traction and support on rugged trails. They fit the same as all of my previous MOAB shoes. Great overall shoes.

So far so good. I have walked in the rain, in the mud, in the snow...over rocks and roots. None of these terrains have anything on these booths. I recommend. (I usually wear a 9/9.5 but I got these in a 10 so do with that info what you will) xoxo

Very beautiful design I can’t get myself to take them out to the mud! The new Moab design fits my foot so much better! It’s longer so the toe box has more room but it’s wider too! I did use them for trail running with my dogs before the snow came! The traction is always great with vibram. I need the ankle protection for my runs.

I’ve been doing overnight hiking & camping trips in some of the most difficult areas at Red River Gorge in Daniel Boone National Forest for the past eight years. Never have I had a better experience than this past one when I bought these shoes. We received over an inch and a half of rain, but it was no issue for these shoes. I accidentally submerged them a few times while performing run-off creek crossings, and my feet remained dry. The traction in loose conditions was good, as was the breathability. I did weeks of research on multiple brands before pulling the trigger on buying these, and I am pleased with my decision. I highly recommend them to anyone else, too!

Moab Speed 2 Mid GORE-TEX

I wear these all day at work. Very comfortable and waterproof. The rubber outsole is the real winner. Excellent traction walking all day between tile, carpet and concrete. Then outside to gravel, loose ground and especially goods on ice and snow.

Not as comfortable as my low tops. Pretty disappointed in them actually. Same size as my others and they are too tight and not comfortable. Look good but if they aren’t comfortable why wear them. Love my other shoes. Why are these terrible?

I’ve owned a lot of boots and walked the soles off of many of them, as a 23 year Army Veteran. These are by far the best and I own 3 pairs because I’m afraid Merrell will discontinue them (dont do it!) I even wear my Moab’s with gaiters in deep snow. Thanks LTC (Retired) Bob Kiser
