Merrell Women'S Moab 2 Mid Gtx High Rise Hiking Shoes

After years of abuse my old pair finally wore out. They had taken me over mountains, forests, snow, ice etc etc and served me well despite them only being a cheap brand and lasted years more than expected. Now being in the position to buy better quality makes I decided that I would go for these after a lot of research. Due to the lock down I was a little nervous about paying a lot of money for some boots without even trying them on. I read another review which mentioned that when buying boots from this manufacturer they always go half a size up due to them being slightly smaller than the advertised size. So with the advice taken I took the plunge (plus they were heavily discounted which helped with the decision making somewhat). Turns out it was good advice as they fit like a glove. Also comfortable straight out of the box though I did get a sore ankle for a couple days after descending at a severe angle on one of our walks. That aside no more problems so far and I would expect a lot worse from new boots usually. They remain comfortable so far and my feet have remained dry even in long wet wheat fields. Grips are immense on the bottom as well and have so far gripped well on slippy muddy banks and scrambles

This is my third pair. They are so comfortable on the trails. I use them for trail walking and they are light, warm and comfortable. They are not the most water resistant winter boot that I have owned but more than make up for it in comfort, support and grip. Good quality and value.

Reviewing my third pair of Merrill’s MOAB 2 gtx mid boots. I have used extensively for trekking and cycling over long sustained periods. There was an issue with earlier pairs. I found that the sole became unstuck around the toe areas. The protective upper bumper around the toe area needs to be very well fixed given the potential wear and tear that can occur there. Thankfully Merrell quickly replaced my second pair without question. This latest pair had no such issue and despite suffering a fair amount of use on boulders and stone stairs the soles or upper section showed no sign of becoming unstuck. For trekking over a month in fairly punishing extreme conditions, both hot and cold, the shoes faired well. That said I did wear them in for a few weeks before leaving the UK for Nepal. I was surprised that I suffered some blisters. I had not suffered any such problems with my previous pairs and they have a reputation for being both comfortable and wearable out of the box. Sizing remains good. I go up a half size and often wear thicker hiking socks. The Vibram soles are fairly flexible and can feel the ground under my feet. However thought the sole under my toes felt a little thinner than on previous pairs and could, imo, be a little thicker and stiffer. Also my toes suffered some nail-bed damage pushing against the front of the shoe despite keeping my toenails short. The biggest shortfall with these [Gore-Tex] trekking shoes is that they are water-resistant rather than waterproof. For the odd dip in a puddle they are fine. More than that and the shoes become very damp and your feet become damp too.. almost wet. Once wet the shoes do not dry out very quickly. These are fair weather shoes best suited to dry trails. They provide excellent ankle protection and help prevent sprains whilst at the sane time being very light. The laces, as on previous pairs, have a strange habit of becoming undone which is fairly well noted. The Merrell MOAB 2 remains an excellent buy at a reasonable price point. They offer good ankle support and are water resistant. Choose a half size higher to accommodate occasional swelling feet and thick socks. Expect excellent use for long treks in variable conditions but, and maybe most importantly, dry weather. They are fairly ‘breathable’ and the ‘Gore-Tex’ mesh works well in that respect. Be warned that they are unlikely to be water proof and will create damp feet in wet conditions. Beware of poorly glued soles which could cause major issues for longer treks at home or overseas. Overall an excellent mid-range priced lightweight trekking boot that performs well in mostly dry conditions.

I bought these for my daily dog walks. I wanted waterproof boots with a bit of support and these are ideal. There's plenty of room for my wide feet and they have been comfortable from day one. I haven't had them for long enough to know how durable they are but so far so good.

These are my favourite walking footwear. They are very comfortable when walking, have excellent grip and a good water resistance. So comfortable that I tend to use them as a trainer and hiking shoe. My last pair split from the sole before the grip was completely worn out but it was a close run thing and I had no doubt about getting some more.

Didn't expect to be wearing them in snow and ice quite so soon after purchasing but these comfy boots held up well in the wet and slippery conditions. Very comfortable and lightweight and so pleased I purchased them when I did as they've been a godsend in the current conditions.

So my point of view this boots have a good material and it’s fit very well in my feet 9,5 UK very very comfortable I really recommend and i will test if it is waterproof or not but 100% its is i will back here in few days to say right

I was so so pleased to actually have a pair of walking boots that actually fit properly, very comfortable, look good and grip under foot, totally awesome 🙏🙏

Top Wanderschuhe, Ersteinsatz bei einer 10km Schneewanderung. Den ganzen Weg hindurch hatte ich schön warme Füße. Und auch trocken geblieben sind sie. Die Schuhe laufen sich sehr bequem. Ich hab sie eine Nummer größer bestellt und hab es nicht bereut.

مبدئيا الحذاء ممتازة جداً والجودة جيدة اخذت مقاس نص زيادة عن مقاسي الطبيعي وجاء القياس ممتاز

Schuh passt perfekt in der Größe die man auch in anderen Schuhen hat. Ich persönlich finde, die Schuhe haben einen sehr hohen Tragekomfort.

Die Schuhe wurden schnell geliefert - jetzt das Negative.... Als ich die Schuhe das erste mal imprägnieren wollte viel auf, dass die Farbe der verarbeiteten Materialien extrem voneinander abweichen (interessanter weise sind an dem braunen Material wie bei den grauen verarbeitet - passt 0,0). Geordert waren übrigens graue Schuhe. Darüber hinaus sind auch graue Elemente an den braunen - nur einseitig verarbeitet worden was mM auch ein Produktionsfeher ist... guckt euch die Bilder an. Nachdem ich mit dem Händler Kontakt aufgenommen habe und das Problem der falschen Farbe schilderte wurde ich erst 3x darauf hingewiesen, dass ich die Schuhe falsch pflegen würde und es nicht ihre Schuld sei (ich habe die selben Bilder wie oben mitgeschickt...). Danach wurde es mir zu blöd und ich wollte nur noch mein Geld... Nun warte ich seit 5 Wochen auf meine Rückerstattung... UPDATE: Das Geld ist mir nach fast 6 Wochen zurückerstattet worden.

Produit avec un bon chaussant, chaud et confortable. Bonne semelle et laçage. Acheté pour faire de la randonnée occasionnelle.
