With a predilection for long hikes at a fast clip and solid waterproof, breathable protection, Merrell Chameleon³ Ventilator Mid GTX boots keep feet protected and supported through the miles.

  • Gore-Tex® XCR® seam-sealed inner booties offer a high level of breathability while retaining complete waterproof protection
  • Nylon mesh linings wick away excess moisture and dry quickly for comfort; AEGIS Microbe Shield® antimicrobial treatment helps keep odors at bay
  • Removable Ortholite® anatomic footbeds add cushioning to In-Board™ compression-molded EVA midsoles with Air Cushion® heel pockets
  • Nylon plates offer torsional stability and protection underfoot, increasing surefootedness on varied terrain and reducing rock bruising
  • Vibram® Chameleon³ outsoles feature TC5+ rubber for superior traction and durability on wet and dry surfaces

    Comments about Merrell Chameleon 3 Ventilator Mid Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Men's:

    I dont have a bad thing to say about these boots. They fit great and it doesnt bother me to hike all day in them. Ive used them in snow and the desert. When in the snow they ended up getting wet but not before my pals and in the desert they get a little sweaty but this is phoenix so thats normal.

        Comments about Merrell Chameleon 3 Ventilator Mid Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Men's:

        This is my fourth or fifth? pair of Merrell Chameleons. I had to wait for a while for the new version to become available in my size. I love this boot in both mid and low configurations for urban wear and light hiking and will be ordering both the low and stretch versions soon. Unlike many boots, these fit true-to-size and wear well with low or medium volume socks. They are great do-anything boots except when you are talking trailheads and serious backcountry or through hiking.
