Men's Moab 2 Mid Waterproof Hiking Boot, Black Night, 10 M

Got these shoes for Iceland and they were perfect. Great fit and my feet felt great. Never felt unstable in any of the hiking I did (both on ice and rock). Feet remained dry the entire time.

I have tried other hiking boots/shoes and I am always happy with Merrell. I buy others for price benefits, but you get what you pay for. These shoes feel great immediately; as if they were specifically made for me.I have a wider foot and flat footed as well. While the support with the shoe would most likely be sufficient for my flat feet, I still buy my own insoles. Habit. Foot comfort is key regardless the task.I walk 2-4 miles a day with my dog. I can wear boots out quickly. These Merrells hold their own, though. I can almost get a year out of a pair. The shoe itself is still in great shape usually, but the soles wear according to my gait and that is the reason for getting a new pair.I like the above ankle shoe/boot. It offers enough ankle support still without being a boot. It has great traction. Difficult to walk in new ones due to such great traction and width of sole, but that’s probably because I get used to walking in my worn out ones.🤷🏻‍♂️Warm enough for Michigan Winters. The waterproofing is great, too. Spring in Michigan can be extremely wet. 2-4 miles walking in wet grass or puddles, it is nice to have dry feet at the end (well, during as well).I think I may be finished shopping around. I’ve had Raichle, Red Wing, Keen, Field and Stream, and Salomon to name a few. All of those were good as well, but either discontinued a style or changed manufacturing which changed the product. I’ll just stick with these Merrells as long as they maintain their quality. You may benefit from doing what I’m doing and just sticking with what works (for me), which is Merrell.

This is my first pair of MerrelIs, and I was very surprised when I first put them on. I have really wide feet, and these things went on like I had been wearing them for a year already.They feel great right out of the box! Plenty wide enough (got the 10.5 wide versions).Compared to the weight of my Timberland Pro safety-toe boots, these things feel like I only have socks on. They are extremely light and flexible.I have not been hiking in them yet, but that's why I bought them.I don't foresee any issues with that, aside from the soles being a bit stiff, perhaps.Nice pair of boots, and I will definitely consider Merrell again when I finally wear these out.

These fit exactly as expected and were both very comfortable during my first 10 mile hike while wearing them, and also nice and snug so that there was support on craggy rocks when my ankle was turned. The sole offered protection from the sharp rocks but was sufficiently flexible so that it was a comfortable hike.I've not had a chance to check on the effectiveness of the waterproofing, but the design of the tongue should help mitigate water from entering into the shoe if I slip while crossing a creek.Overall, I'm satisfied with the quality and price paid.FOLLOWUP: 13 months since this review. I deleted one star. I have had several occasions now to test the waterproofing and, as many have said, it's water-resistant not waterproof. It's not bad, I've had no serious issues and I do apply some waterproofing spray now and then which helps. I've stepped into creeks while crossing and have not had real wetness to deal with unless I went above the ankle and no amount of waterproofing will stop water from coming in over the top of the boot. So, all in all, I give the waterproofing 3 stars, not bad, not great but regular applications of a protective spray will help.I'm not a serious hiker, but I am a regular hiker and average 8 - 12 miles a week, so after more than a year, I've probably put about 500 miles on these. Most of the trails I hike are very rocky with a lot of loose, sharp, and irregular stones. These are trails where a solid boot with good protection is a requirement. I have found that these boots are protective and remain comfortable. They have also, despite some reviews, held up well. The sole has more than a few chunks missing, that's what happens when you walk on jagged rocks. They are still in good enough shape that I can expect at least another year out of them.The reason I dropped a star from my initial rating was not due to their waterproofing; as I said it's not great but adequate. In fact, for some people, this could still be a five-star product but for me, it's actually about a 2 star. I would not rate it overall as two-star because that would be unfair for readers whose hiking conditions differ from mine. I would expect that a boot that considers itself waterproof to have a "sticky" sole. If you're walking on wet rocks you want the sole to grip. These soles are slippery when wet. More than that, since I mostly hike in the desert, the rocks often have a very fine layer of sand on them which is the equivalent of millions of tiny ball bearings across the surface of the rock. I have slipped and lost my balance more often than I can count, this week I took a fairly serious fall and sprained my ankle. I was hoping that as I continued to use these boots that the sole would roughen up and grip better than they do. It's apparent that the sole was designed to be hard enough to offer protection (and still remain flexible and comfortable) but it fails in protecting from slipping or sliding when crossing a wet surface or more often in my case, a surface covered with fine sand. I would trade this durable and protective sole for one that was a bit less durable, a bit less protective, but one which also offered better slip resistance. If I was hiking on different terrain, this might not be an issue but the trails that I hike most often are not suited to this sole. It's too bad since this is a serious, and potentially dangerous issue for me. Other than that, I think it's a great boot, but I will need to find another that has a more practical sole for my purposes.

After ten days of wear the toe caps started to peel back

Best hiking boot I have ever had. Great support, and after a year of hammering they have stood up perfectly. Cannot recommend these highly enough.

Muy cómodos, excelentes para caminar. Nada pesados. Se ajustan al pie para mejor desempeño

Calzo del 25 pero uso 25.5 porque mi pie es ancho, cuando compré este par elegí 25 pero decía talla 8 hombres, afortunadamente la 8 es 26 porque no me hubiera quedado el 25 que había pedido. Vienen muy bien acondicionados por dentro, traen arco no están planos, el forro por dentro es textil. El único pero que tendría es que no trae perforaciones para las agujetas, se sostienen por una pequeñas cintas espero no se rompan porque es un elemento que aparte de tener función es parte de la estética. Los encontré en super descuento en AmazonACTUALIZACIÓNPedí un par en café pero en 25.5 y llegó del 8.5 USA (25 UK y 42 EUR), me quedaron un poco flojos no ajustados como el 25 que había pedido antes (8 USA). Son cómodos tiene un buen agarre, llegaron y ya los traigo puestos. son hechos en Myanmar (antes Birmania) vamos a ver que tal salen porque los anteriores sin problema alguno.

This is, in my opinion, the very best hiking boot out there. It's super light, solid, well-built, grippy and durable. Perfect for any kind of hiking, from weekend outings to full-blown adventures. I finished a full "Tour du Mont Blanc" (all the Alp summits circling Switzerland, France and Italy) wearing my original Moabs in about 7 days without a single blister and never getting my feet wet. I'm never buying any other model, if Merrell can only keep making it!
