Incredibly Lightweight

The boots are incredibly lightweight. I usually wear a size 11.5, but they were too tight even with thin, runner’s socks. So, I increased my size to a 12. Now, they’re slightly too large, but since the boots don’t have much arch support, I added insoles that help tighten the fit around my foot.

Quality product, nice choice of colors

I have found this mid boot to be the most comfortable so far. Due to back/leg/foot issues I try different inserts to make a shoe comfortable. I found by removing the Merrell insert and putting in 2 different Dr Scholl's, Air-Pillow and Extra Comfort it made this boot comfortable for me. I'm ready for my Ireland and Israel trips next year.

Faulty rivets

I do not recommend this product due to a design flaw in the lacing system. I purchased these hiking boots approximately three weeks ago and have worn them only a few times. During one of my hikes, the rivet on the right boot became entangled with the laces on the left boot, causing me to trip. Fortunately, I was using trekking poles and was able to prevent a fall. Upon inspection, I also noticed that the rivet had torn away from the right side of the boot. Given the limited use and the nature of the issue, this raises serious concerns about the product’s safeness and reliability.

Moab to Hike the Hills

This is my second pair of Merrell high top hiking boots. Both have been amazingly comfortable to wear any where for long periods. This Moab binds well to my foot and ankle to keep me steady on uneven surfaces. My first adventure with them was to Blue Ridge Parkway where I hiked over wet boulders, roots, mud and sand. Never slipped or tripped going up and down 50 degree slopes. I am a life long believer in Merrell foot wear

Very impressed

I was very impressed with how light weight these shoes were. These shoes were very comfortable and provided my feet with the stability I was looking for. I took these shoes to Sedona, AZ, and hiked Soldier's Pass. I also walked about a 1/2 mile on paved roads and the shoes continued to be as comfortable as can be. I do wear insoles and there was plenty of room for them and a thick hiking sock.

Moab 2’s very pleasant on the feet

Very comfortable, more than I expected. Moves very well with your foot movements. Has handled the trails of Zurich, French Alps and Spain. Very pleased with these Moab 2’s.
