Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
I'd really like to give a good rating on these shoes, but it seems that they may be poorly engineered. After a lot of online research I settled on these hoping to have a less expensive but reliable mid waterproof boot. Unfortunately, the lace loop at the upper end of the boot broke off after less than 10 wears (only local trips around town to try and break in). didn't even get a chance to try it out on a hike of any kind. really comfortable with good support on the sole, which I need. from the looks of it, the uppermost eyelet which probably sees the most stress when tying the shoe lace, is only held together by some fabric. i have a number of other merrells, which have been fine so far. at these critical points, there are either metal or plastic reinforcements on the eyelet. the waterproofing material (don't know if it works or not) does add to the fit of the shoe, so if you get one, make sure you go up a size or half a size. Looks like this is going back for a return, and most likely will not get a replacement now that I know what to look for.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
I should have relied on reviews and not advertisement. These are great shoes for dry weather or short hikes where there is time to dry them out. Very light and felt great out of the box. First day 10 miles perfect. Second day drizzle and wet grass and at mile 3 my toe boxes were soaked. Three sock changes for the remaining 12 miles. Still to these shoe's credit no blisters even with wet toes. Merrell should stop advertising they are waterproof. I returned them on that principle.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
These boots lasted me only a year before one toe cap started coming unglued and chunks of the sole began tearing off. I used them frequently hiking on rugged trails and cross-country terrain in the Cascades. Even with stiffer custom insoles these were not suitable for hiking on rocky trails and talus. There isn't enough support and they aren't made to take that kind of abuse. I liked the light weight and comfort but I can't afford to replace them every year. Need something more durable.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
I sent the my first pair back to Merrell after getting my feet soaked hiking in about 1 inch of snow. Merrell replaced them under warrentee quickly. The next spring, the replacements were leaking so I had muddy socks after spring hikes.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
I wear a 10 Wide shoe / boot and it isn't always easy to find one that fits my foot the way I need it to. The Merrel Moab fits me to a "T"! I read another reviewer's comment that they needed a break-in period so I started wearing mine everytime I went out and they are now my favorite footwear. Do they really need a break-in period? Maybe for a serious hiker but for me, I'd say "no". They worked perfectly right out of the box! I honestly haven't been so pleased with a pair of boots in a very, very long time.
I have to add that the REI sales rep at my local store was most knowledgeable and helpful. What a pleasurable experience! Great service and a great product!

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
Im on my second set and still have a water leakage issue but in a different spot. After about a month of break in period on my first pair I tested to see how waterproof these boots were. I tested them in shallow water right up to the bottom of my ankle. No where near the top. On my first pair water came into my left boot near the ball of my foot. I went in and exchanged them. After two weeks I tested the second pair and it was the right boot that had a leakage on the outside of my right foot. The boots fit great but if they claim to be waterproof they should be. Nothing like being on a long hike with a wet foot when youve paid for them to be dry.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
From the first time I put on these boots and started hiking (~5-~10 miles) they felt like old friends: broken-in and, such, that I did not think about my feet or my boots. Not thinking about a piece of equipment when hiking for a number of hours is obvious recognition that that piece of equipment fits and is doing the job. When you have to deal with a piece of equipment that should not be recognized, it is failing.
We are planning a 15-day, 190 mile hike across England. I am soooooo glad I have these boots.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
These are great day hiking boots. Right out of the box they were fine for an 8 mile trek with a bit of thin melting snow and slog on the trail. I especially liked them up on the rocks. Very satisfied.

Comments about Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots - Men's:
Wanted a new mid-height boot for hiking, do lots of canyon and mountain hiking. I haven't worn these on a long hike yet but so far these have held up well for shorter hikes. They were about as comfortable as you can find out of the box, good sturdy soles that have pretty good traction. Given their height, they have good ankle support and I have not had any problems with it rubbing around the ankle. So far... they are well worth the purchase. Will update if I feel differently after using for some long hikes. Haven't used around water yet.
