Men's Merrell Moab WP

I'm 225 pounds and I've had mine for several years and they are holding up great. They still look fine and the vibram sole is very tough, showing little wear. I wear mine for everything from fishing to weekend activities, to motorcycling. I'm tough on footwear and these hikers have become a great bargain for the money. I wear them year round. Have used them in the desert, snow, you name it. I'm on the Merrell site now because I'm looking for a heavier duty pair of hikers and feel that I'm likely to get quality, comfort and durability again. Worth the money and can't say enough about the soles. The only thing I changed were the laces, as I like a stiffer, heavier duty lace.

I'm a first time Merrell buyer, but these shoes made a believer out of me! These are by far the most comfortable hiking shoes I've ever had. The traction is incredible and the stability over rough terrain is fantastic. The only downside I noticed to these are the laces that come with them. Like another reviewer said, the laces are coated in something (probably for waterproofing) and come untied very easily. I found out early on to double knot them and check them regularly. I may end up buying new laces for these as it can be annoying having them come undone often. Aside from the laces though (a small downside in my eyes), these are a great buy!!

My history with Merrell goes back to 1986. I've enjoyed their shoes and turned many of my friends onto their comfort. The Moab is the perfect style for my latest outdoor adventure so I selected them in an exchange through Merrell Customer Service. They're great folks and I enjoyed working with them to resolve my issues. In the past I've purchased size 13 without a problem but over the last year or so this size hasn't been working out. Are they making their shoes smaller? All my [other brand] shoes are just fine at 13. I'd suggest buying a half to whole size larger.

A great lightweight hiking/trail shoe. these replaced a somewhat heavier and sturdier Merrell gore-tex shoe, the Chameleon, which were very worn from years of use. i use these primarily for walking and training with no pack or a light pack; i would recommend a sturdier, more substantial shoe for training or hiking with a heavy pack. these are low-cut, no ankle support; firm, supportive sole and midsole with deep treads; mostly nylon upper with gore-tex; laces run through fabric loops, a lightweight speed-lacing solution. the shoes do not appear to have much of a shank, so feet may be vulnerable to bruising on very rocky trails - so far, i have not experienced any problems, though. Fit is average to slightly wide (they work with E-width feet and have space for orthotics). the gore-tex works, breathes quite well, with the caveat that this is a low shoe, so they are not suited for deep puddles or bogs. after a month or two of hiking on rocky trails, walking the dog, and training, in wet weather and dry, the shoes have performed well and show no visible signs of wear. no blown seams, no delaminated soles, and very comfortable for all-day wear with a pair of good wool socks.

I got these shoes yesterday and took them directly from the box out for a 7.5 mile trek over a smaller mountain range in southern NH. They did quite well on the rocky terrain that New Hampshire is famous for. I cannot atest to the durabilty of these shoes but I can say it was night and day from my last shoes as far as comfort goes. My feet felt like I was stepping on pillows as I hopped from rock to rock both heading up the trail and down. The Vibram soles are amazing. I will say be careful on wet slimy rocks because they don't grip all that well, so be careful at water crossings. I cannot say anything about their waterproofabilty yet but my feet felt great after the hike, which for me is very rare.

Great outdoor style tennis shoe! Gore-Tex makes it the legendary 'waterproof, but warm' but that is what it's known for. I use this shoe hiking, x-country running, biking, and general outdoor wear and have never had a blister in the 100's of miles I've worn them! Have not one complaint about this shoe. One precaution to most, this shoe fits about 1/2 size SMALLER than it lists, but that worked out good for me being in between and 12 and 13.
