These are comfortable right out of the box. They're warm and stable but move more like a sneaker than a boot.
Thank you for the fantastic review!
After a month of use so far these have been ok. Got them for trails in cold weather. The tread and grip are very good, with deep lugs. My feet stay warm and dry. I'm not super impressed with the laces and lacing system, they seem a bit weak, and the upper lugs look like a future failure point. Won't be my everyday tread, but just for cold, wet, icy, type days. Glad I got them on sale.
These did not last one day as the lace clip pulled out on the first try. Merrell boots seemed to have gone downhill . I have only used Merrel snow and hiking boots for the last 15 years and my last few purchases have been very disappointing
We'd love the opportunity to make this right at 800-288-3124.
Comfortable use them for work Walk over 12 miles a day between my route and my OT 6 days a week when it rain feet will get wet if it’s rain all day and it’s heavy only problem they do keep my feet warm on them Baltimore cold days
I bought them for a trip to the Highlands of Scotland. I didn’t have time to break them in but it didn’t matter. Super comfortable and nice looking boot. Highly recommended.
We're grateful for your rating!
This boot is not well made. Only used for 2 winters and already the boot is ripping on the side. I added pics to show the rip.
Lightweight, comfortable and the soul is firm enough for rough terrain
I have had several Merrell products I have loved. Based on that experience, I ordered these boots off the internet without trying on first. I haven't used them much yet, but my initial impression is that the quality matches up to my expectations, and I like them except for one important thing. I dislike the lacing system, and the very thin laces. The photo shows a normal Merrell boot lace for comparison, and boot design making use of normal laces difficult.
Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback.
I took these to Everest Base Camp and loved them. Everyone else got blisters with equivalent quality boots. I didn't get one for the entire trip. They are light, warm, and waterproof. They grip well and are sturdy. My ankles are shot so I depend on them and I relied on their lighter weight to avoid wearing me out. I'll never willingly hike in any other boots in the mountains again.
So I just got my Moab Speed 2 Thermo mids today and am absolutely happy with them. This is my 2nd pair of Merrell and like with the first pair they are amazingly comfortable, and fitting. Shoe size fits perfectly for my feet feels like I'm walking on air right now. I live on Kodiak Island Alaska so these shoes will definitely get to do what they are designed to do. I can safely say that for me and my family we have found our footwear relationship in Merrell. Thank you for designing and making one of the best hiking shoes in the world in my opinion. They will see many miles of trail this year.
