Merrell mens Moab Adventure Mid WaterproofHiking Boot

After 5 years of wearing these through hikes, travel all around the globe, through rainforests, deserts, European cities, and working in industrial and construction sites...I LOVE these boots! For a second there, I worried that I was becoming my father with his penny-pinching desire to keep the old undies and everything else after they were past being worn out. Thing is, I actually LOVE these and don't want to get rid of them unless I have another set that's the same. Let's see...pros: These tough mother lovers will eat through anything and everything you try to throw their way, and laugh it off as you recover from whatever adventure they took you on. They are superbly comfortable, and they still looked nice until I took them through an 11 mile caving trip through deep water and mud, and didn't clean them because my partner said they have to go now. Does anyone know who would re-sole these? I want the tops on them, still...the leather is so good! They're worth every penny! Cons: You'll never want to get rid of them. They aren't cheap! After 4 years of hard wear (think mixing the light infantry ground pounder with an industrial installation worker standing on slabs of concrete all day and the leather standing up to sharp metal) the soles don't pad your heels quite as well...maybe grab an insole! I wear padded socks with them and still manage just fine! And lastly...careful with the partner you choose...they may insist that you replace your favorite shoes/boots or threaten to burn them when you float the idea of having them re-soled...or so I hear. Ouch! She didn't like that last comment! Better go now! Yo soy el fugitivo!

I bought a used pair of these boots online, and quickly followed up with the purchase of a second, new pair. I wear Men's size 15B, and luckily, these boots are not too wide for my narrow feet. I like the fact that these boots have metal eyelets for the laces, which make it easier to pull the laces tight. These boots work especially well while working on steep slopes and hillsides in my yard, as the rear of the boots are padded, and much more comfortable than my normal work boots. On the other hand, if one was going to hike in rough, rocky terrain, I would opt for a sturdier hiking boot--I could feel the rocks through the soles when I recently hiked in that environment. Again, for general wear, work boots, or light hiking in dirt or gravel, these boots will work well for you.

This boot fits great and has a good grip. My main concerns were the boot being too hot and the outsole wearing out too quickly. It's impossible to find an all-leather upper boot without a waterproof liner built in, and I was worried that such a boot would be too hot for southern Arizona, but I need the leather upper for protection from cactus, rocks and snakes. This boot has been great year round. No overheating problems. The last pair of boots I bought (for $70.) had outsoles that were completely smooth after about 6 months, so they didn't provide adequate grip on the rocky canyon trails I hike. These boots after almost a year still have about 60% of their tread left so hopefully they'll go another 6-12 months. The Vibram name on the sole was a big selling point for me. I'm very happy with these boots.

I purchased these hiking boots on sale at half price after Thanksgiving. The boots have good-looking soft leather making them feel already broken-in. They are very light, provide excellent grip due to their tread design, and are relatively comfortable. My only suggestion is that they improve the insoles to provide a little more cushion. Also, I probably could’ve used a size 12 wide because this boot feels as if it runs a little narrow. All in all it’s a good boot if you can get it on sale.

I've used Merrell for some years now! Always purchased them with VIBRAM sole. They always out last the upper fabric! These time I purchased this model because the upper fabric is leather, hoping it last's as long as the VIBRAM sole. Already put some hiking miles on them, and have come to find out they are relay comfortable, I could had got away with a pair that was not W (wide). They fit a bit loos on the toes, but it's Ok. The upper leather is soft and, the high ankle support helps with walking firmly.

I just received my Moab Adventure size 11s in the mail and have had them on for an hour and already got compliments! I bought these boots for my trip to Italy. I considered Danner, Timberland and Merrell. I chose Merrell for the comfort and the Adventure model because I liked the simple and non-flashy look. I am usually a 10.5 M but ordered 11 M based on another review. The boots are comfortable right out of the box. They are roomy for my toes, unlike the Danner Mountain 600s 10.5 M, which were too narrow, that I returned. My feet are pretty warm now, after walking a mile in the sun, which was to be expected. I am pleased with the comfort of Merrell and happy with this purchase.

They are very comfortable boots ,but unfortunately they do not hold up to everyday use , and good luck filing a claim with merrell as I've just been ignored after a few attempts for warranty ,pics and proof of purchase supplied

Was looking for a new hiking shoe. My previous experience with Merrill shoes has been positive. Well constructed and long lasting. Fit is very good. I expect long life from these shoes.

Used for the first time last weekend. Went for a 6 hours hike through a dense tropical jungle and at some very rough rocky terrain. Felt very comfortable. Just one main thing to note is that even though I have a wide feet the shoes where even wider than expected. So will suit people with very wide feet. If you don't have wide feet I wouldn't buy this shoes.

Son bonitas, cómodas, lo tienen todo. Ojo con la talla y pedir un número y medio más en mi caso calzo un 42 y pedí un 43'5 así van perfecto. Espero que me duren. Me encantan

Wie von Merrell gewohnt super Schuh, jedoch leider mit etwas dickeren Socken in der Winterzeit zu klein für mich, da die Passform bei Merrell subjektiv eher eine halbe Nummer kleiner ausfällt. Bei meinen Merrell Moab 2 fällt das gar nicht so extrem auf, da ich die hauptsächlich im Sommer mit normalen Socken zum Wandern benutze. Ansonsten gefällt mir die Vibram Sohle sehr gut, für mich jedenfalls ein sehr bequemer und angenehm zu tragender Spazier-/Wanderschuh. Die Farbe "Braun Dunkle Erde" sieht zudem auch sehr gut aus, sofern man die Schuhe im Original Karton geliefert bekommt und nicht wie mein Paar in 43, dass dann bei Anlieferung schon aussieht wie 1000KM getragen(Vintage-Style)! Wasserdichtheit konnte leider nicht getestet werden, jedoch sollte man hier beachten, dass die Lasche bis zur untersten Schnürung zu beiden Seiten offen ist und nicht wie von anderen Herstellern bis oben hin zugenäht, ist jedenfalls bei meinen bisherigen Wasserdichten Timberlands immer so gewesen. Merrell ist bis dato mein persönlicher Favorit wenn es um Schuhe zum Wandern und Spazieren gehen geht.

As the title states, these are great quality outdoor shoes which you can wear casually as well. I got these in particular because i didnt want shoes that look like hardcore hiking boots and these fit that prupose very well. On the first day of using them i went shin-deep in mud and was pleasantly surprised how well they protected my socks from being ruined for the rest of the hike. Regarding its water proofing, they dont repel water like some synthetic boots, rather, the shoe material gets wet without soaking through to the sock. The leather material also dries extremely quickly meaning your socks stay relatively dry. Size wise, they feel quite roomy inside on (perhaps they are designed for double-socking so would recommend a half-size smaller than usual.

This review is on purchase March 2022. I ordered my usual size and happy to say they fit perfectly wearing my usual walking socks. Compared to my other boots, I’d say they are slightly on the snug side but soft, lightweight and feel so comfy on. They look good on too, not too bulky. We’ll worth the £84 paid. I recently bought a pair of Merrell walking shoes, which are equally comfy and fit perfectly. It was on the strength of that purchase that I decided to buy these boots. Think I have become a Merrell fan. Don’t think I’ll buy any other brand from now on.
