Merrell  Moab 3 GORE-TEX Hiking Shoes - Men's

My Merrill’s were great for hiking without having to break them in. They are supportive and comfortable and we’re able to grip the terrain I was hiking….both rock and gravel.

Me and my boy went hiking in Pinecrest ca. shoes did their job. Great hiking shoe

Overall, a good shoe. I am disappointed in the sizing / fit. I wear a men's size 12. I recently purchased a pair of Moab 3 Waterproof (NOT Gore-Tex) and there is a distinct difference in fit. The toe box in the GoreT-Tex is "sloppy" as you might be able to see in the photos. The fit in the Moab 3 Waterproof is spot on. It's as if the 2 pair are different sizes. Not sure what to do, but Merrell asked me to rate the shoes, so I did.

I visited New York in October. I walked 120,000 steps in three days and felt comfortable in these sneakers.

Comfortable Shoe. Only had one day where it rained. Wasn’t really enough to test the Gortex though. I bought for this trip and will save them only when I go on vacation. The only reason I didn’t give a 5-Star was due to fabric bunching up above the heal. I didn’t feel it, but believe they should do a better job of securing it to the liner or whatever is under it.

I live in Minnesota aka,”MinneSnowta” , there was a lot of times during the season my Merrill Moab 3’s were tried and tested; weather it was Ice, snow or slick conditions I felt confident and comfortable.

They are bothering me and I cannot wear them. They also make crunchy sound.

The Merrell Moab 2 and 3 hiking shoes have a major flaw with inferior stitching in the heal cup area. The stitching across the heal area (about 3/4"-1" down from the top of the inner heal) splits open after normal use, and then the thin black liner material lifts and frays. The shoes I have purchased all exhibit this design flaw after using the shoes less than 6 months. Other than that, I like the shoes. MERRELL: PLEASE REDESIGN THE HEAL CUP AREA STITCHING AND LINER MATERIAL ON ALL NEW MOAB SHOES IN THE FUTURE!

The water proof GorTex shoe fits snug for my size 10 feet. I had to search for an insert to exaggerate the center arch slightly to take the weight off the front of my foot. This is NOT a negative of the shoe. It's me, My foot. Shoe material is extremely well built at around the shoe/foot as well as the grippy bottom. If I were to long, long hike on away trips, I'd order "wide" and 1/2 size UP. This is the 3rd pair I have bought over, many, many years. The last pair was used as a landscaping, hardscaping, work around the home projects for so, so many years, I wore the bottom grips - flat. Best!

I’ve only had Merrell slip-on shoes (Jungle Mocs) previously, but I needed a pair of rugged, waterproof, comfortable, non-boot hiking shoes for a trip to Machu Picchu and the Galápagos Islands, so I decided to try these one-half size larger since I’d be wearing thick hiking socks. They exceeded my expectations. I broke them in prior to the trip but really didn’t need to - they were comfortable from the first wearing - and the extra toe wiggle room only added to the comfort. Unlike some shoes when you go up a half-size, my heel didn’t slip in the slightest. We’ll see how they hold up longer-term
