Outstanding trail shoes

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2024

Size: 10 WideColor: BelugaVerified Purchase

It's been a while since I have purchased any hiking shoes or boots, but things have clearly continued to improve since my old clunky hikers or Army boots. I purchased these for a day of like hiking at Shades State park, and thy were outstanding. I have a WIDE foot (3E-4E) and my main issue is always width, and I am pleased to say that the wides were indeed wide enough for me. Not too wide that I had any sliding - just right. And my secondary issue is that I wear custom orthotics, and although it looked like they might not fit right, they actually dropped right in when the insoles were removed.
This is an outstanding hiker for the moderate trail that I was on, as well as wearing around town the rest of the day - very comfortable. I didn't get a chance to test their waterproofness or performance on any rugged trails, although I am sure they will.
Recommended.

Great all around shoes (update @ 15 months)

Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2020

Merrell Moab 2 hiking shoes (in Brindle)

Overall. I really like these shoes! I got these for everyday wear and use, replacing worn-out tennis shoes from a company that apparently decided it would rather focus more on politics than footwear. I don’t want my shoes to make a political statement. I want my shoes to fit well, provide good traction, wear at least decently, and look good doing it. These Merrells deliver!

Sizing. I usually take a size 9 or 9.5 depending on the shoe. I had read both that the Moab 2s fit normally and that they can run a little small. I went with the 9.5 and that was perfect. If you’re in doubt, step up to the next size.

Break in. They felt a little stiff for the first couple of days and first few miles. They broke in very quickly and easily though, no pain, no blisters. I’ve had them several weeks now. So far they’ve only been on sidewalks and interior halls and stairways but no problems with traction or wear.

These are my first Merrells, but no-doubt not my last.

Update at 15 months. I still love these shoes. They are holding up great. If I cleaned them up then from across the room you wouldn't know them from new. Tread is holding up well. If you really look at it you can see some wear. I wear these nearly every day, including walking the dog on a 3 mile loop. (sidewalks) They've seen a little dirt and gravel and seem to do fine in it. Though for real hiking I prefer a boot not a shoe. Speaking of which, I'm going to replace my Columbia hiking boots - which are coming apart after just a year or so of very modest use (dirt/grass/fields no real rocks or tough stuff). I'll probably replace them with Moab 2 (vent) boots.

Comfortable shoes with questionable durability

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2020

Size: 11Color: WalnutVerified Purchase

Just bought a new pair to replace my old shoes of the same model, upon which I am basing my review.
- These shoes are comfortable right out of the box. At least for me they were by far the best fit among the different brands of hiking shoes that I tried in store and that is the main reason behind my decision to re-purchase them.
- Excellent grip on most surfaces, I trust the shoes completely on steep / rocky / wet hikes
- Sole is stiff and thick enough for good protection on rocks / pebbles, and flexible enough for comfort
- Waterproofing seems to work well. I wouldn't suggest crossing a river in these shoes, but they've always kept my feet dry in the rain / snow or wading through puddles
- Reasonably breathable

A minor inconvenience are the shoelaces, which always come untied unless I tie a double know. The main issue for me is durability. On my last pair the sole started breaking apart after a year of medium use - admittedly some on steep mountain trails covered with sharp stones. Still, based on my earlier experience with other brands, I would expect hiking shoes in this price range to last a lot longer. I purchased a new pair on sale without hesitation, but I am not sure I'd recommend them at full price.

Moabs are one of many Merrell shoe, walkers, boots. This one is beyond expectations.

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2022

Size: 9Color: BrindleVerified Purchase

This is my 5th or 6th set of Merrills. So with that said, the reader can see what I think about them. While not waterproof, they stand up to the rain nicely - there are waterproof Merrills. Dirty? Take out the shoe strings and throw them in the wash. They'll come out looking almost new.

I have a foot that is a bit wide and these fit perfectly, but if your foot is narrow, don't be afraid to get these. Right now, I own three pairs: the one pictured here, one of the original Moab colors and one for working around the yard. I love the ones pictured here because they are a gorgeous light green. My wife can vouch for Merrills - man or woman, you can't go wrong with any one of the Merrill family of walkers, hikers.

Merrills used to have a thin collar at the heel, and after a lot of wear, it would begin to tear. The new ones don't do that.

If you're looking for a pair of walkers that look great on your feet, are comfortable and will last, get these.

These shoes have an excellent sole which gives good protection on rough ground is really hard wearing and gives good grip. The uppers breath well and keep their shape . I highly recommend them. They are excellent value for money.

ottima scarpa trekking merrell

Reviewed in Italy on March 4, 2024

Size: 8Color: PecanVerified Purchase

Ottimo prodotto, acquistato a buon prezzo come "seconda mano", ma, a parte la scatola leggermente danneggiata, non ho ho trovato segni d'uso o imperfezioni.
Scarpe comode e abbastanza traspiranti, buon grip (anche se non ancora utilizzate su terreni particolarmente impegnativi).
Ho preso mezza taglia in più del consigliato, sia perché la marca veste leggermente piccolo, sia perché per utilizzo trekking è meglio.
Al momento valuto molto positivamente materiali, cuciture, calzabilità, comodità, robustezza.
Utilizzate per una giornata intera da nuove, non hanno creato problemi e fastidi, anzi, perfettamente adattate al piede fin da subito.
Unico "difetto" leggermente troppo calde, ma freschezza e robustezza/protezione insieme non si riescono ad avere.
