Waterproof shoes for everyday.
Comfortable shoes. But not a fan of the laces they never stay tied. Great in all weather.

One big drawback
I like the look of these shoes. They do tend to fit small. My main gripe is the shoe laces. They're pretty, but they don't stay tied. I have to stop every 10 steps to re-tie them. So very frustrating. I've tried running them over a sharp corner in an effort to get some more grip out of them, but this is just an exercise in futility. Probably a good shoe.

Best hiking shoes

Absolute Game-Changer! This is my third pair of Moab 3 waterproof used for Mont Blanc circuit hike I’ve never felt more confident on the trail! These hiking shoes are incredibly comfortable, provide excellent grip, and kept my feet completely dry even through streams and muddy terrain. After miles of hiking, no blisters -just happy feet. Looking forward to use it for my upcoming Dolomite hike 100% recommend for serious adventurers!

Comfort from the first step

I wanted to get a hiking shoe that was comfortable, cute and functional for shorter and easier hikes around my city. These shoes were immediately comfortable, had a good sole and functioned really well for my easier hikes. For the more difficult hikes I had my Zamberlan boots, which unfortunately on the first day of a 3 day hiking trip gave me immense pain in my Achilles. I had to wear my Merrell Moab's for the remainder of the trip. Which involved a 10 hour hike with 5000+ feet elevation gain over one of Norway's most difficult mountains. I was shocked at the amount of support and protection the Moab's gave me. They are truly amazing little shoes! Highly recommend.

Moab 3 are Winners

Bought these a week ago,after I basically wore my unlikely hikers out in the past 6 months! The Moab 3 is one of Merrell’s best made hiking shoes. So much more support than the old Moab’s, much beefier, comfortable right out of the box, better tread,no slipping here.I own 11 pairs of Merrell hiking shoes and I can honestly say the Moab 3 and unlikely hikers are the best. My only complaint, is you don’t have any old broads as shoe testers! You all have neglected the great old broads market. I’m 65 year old avid hiker ,averaging 30 to 50 miles a week. Since I live in Colorado, I wear your shoes everyday to hike the trails by my home, from Rocky Mt. N.P. to the Flatirons. So instead of always having a cute,young person in your ads ,you need to start putting great old broads in, who actually hike everyday in your shoes!

Waterproof doesn't last

Love the soles for getting through the woods for turkey season when insulated is too much. But these just don't do waterproofing. I've had 3 pair now, and the last pair I got didn't hold up to wet grass only on 2 trips out. Toes leak on them almost immediately. I'd like to see them in leather. Most leather waterproof hold up, but not these. No fake leather either, that breaks. Soles good for traction, comfortable, but I give a minus 5 stars for waterproof.

My go to hiking shoe.

These shoes are relatively light weight but still rugged enough for rocky terrain. The waterproof is good for rain and low water crossing. Your feet will get wet if you submerged the shoe. The material in the uppers is breathable and dried quickly. This is my second pair of these shoes. The first pair is still going, I just like to alternate my shoes. I have been hiking for a year several time a week in Boquete Panama.

Excellent hiking shoes

I bought these for a hiking trip to the Dolomites and wore them basically right out of the box. They are extremely comfortable and I had no issues with foot pain hiking 5+ hours a day on steep trails and lose gravel. I found them to be true to size for me! I would definitely recommend them.

Great hiking shoe but size seem to have changed s

I’ve had three pairs and I love them. They keep my feet dry and good grip when walking on various terrain. My last pair were same size as previous pair but when I got them they were about half size too small. I was heading away for vacation and decided to keep them. I should have returned for half size up. I’m going to order another pair half size up as I’m certain they’ll be perfect. The ones I did wear worked out ok but my big toes suffered the whole time on our vacation. Great price and value I have some relatively new ones going into donation bin. I’m able to wear my older ones until newer upsized ones arrive.

Moab 3 waterproof

Love the Moab 3 waterproof. I chose size 7.5 wide. They held up fantastically during a muddy trail hike. Feet stayed dry during the hike in puddles. Have not submerged them in anything deeper to check their waterproof claim. Easily rinsed/wiped the mud off. They were lightweight and gripped rocks and slopes well.

Pikes Peak hike

Loved my shoes. They were so comfortable once I broke them in. They helped get me up pikes peak and summit at 14,000 feet.
