Merrell  Moab Speed 2 Vent 2K SE Shoes - Men's

I hiked around Mont Blanc and they were great. I got them on a whim a week before and didn’t get any blisters on our hike. They were really comfortable and handled the terrain well.

Merrell made a disastrous decision to introduce this product. The source materials for this shoe are of inferior quality to the previous Speed 2 to the point that the TPU upper around the toe box rubbed blisters on my foot being worn solely inside to test the product fit….. The upper is rigid & the support panel over the toes inside the shoe where the outside upper is sewn has sharp edges & bundled threading……thus causing immediate discomfort….. Basically it’s a cheap “ plastic shoe “….!!! Totally unwearable in any trail running environment…..not worth $50….. Product will fail miserable for Merrell & will ultimately have to be marked way down to attract uninformed buyers….. Merrell over the last several years has chosen to utilize inferior source materials & cheaper manufacturing options on many of their product lines This has resulted in severe quality loss & overall customer dissatisfaction….. True outdoor enthusiasts & competitive athletes have moved to higher end brands for their gear…..

Bought two 45i Alen air purifiers with smoke filters to help with the horrible wildfire smoke here in Colorado. Really quiet air filters which clearly show how bad the air is by color coded rings on the front display. The colors do change as the smoke increases and fades which leads me to believe they do detect bad air quality and with the auto setting, the purifiers adjust as needed. Alen has excellent customer service and so far , I am very happy with my purchase. I have one in my bedroom and one in the main living area.

When I put these shoes on I couldn't believe the comfort. The space in the toe area is amazing along with the support all throughout my foot. This is my first experience with Merrell and after this pair it definitely won't be the last.I am quite impressed and I that is not easily achieved in footwear but Merrell delivered.

I purchased 2 Alen BreatheSmart 45i with Heavy Smoke Filter in December 2019. Much larger than the A350, but much quieter, and love the colors. I have been running them continuously for almost a year, as well as two A350s which are over 10 years old. I keep one of each up and downstairs, may get another. My house is pretty tight, but fireplace smoke and yard burning somehow gets in, very aggravating. These help a lot. If bad, I turn them on high and also turn on all the exhaust fans. I also have an old AT100 running. I may buy one more of the 45i. W/Covid, running these continuously offers some comfort. I get the silver or smoke filters. Expensive, but cheaper than a doctor. Well built, quality units which blend in with the decor. Highly recommend if your budget allows.

My first pair of Merrell's. Needed a pair of hiking shoes quickly, found these on sale and decided to gamble purchase without ever trying on, something I don't ever do. They arrived quickly and fit really good. After wearing all week long as my only shoe, for driving and hiking light trails every day, I was AMAZED how good these felt. I tried wearing to work (concrete floors, and pavement) and right away remembered they were hiking shoes 😆 I will now be buying Merrell again!

Great stuff - we live in a summer high-smoke/wildfire area and bought two 45i's with smoke filters and it's made a *huge* difference in our indoor air quality. Need more? The other night my wife made a dish in the oven and some of the cheese/grease/etc. spilled out of the dutch oven and onto the base of our range. Smoke central. The 45i we have near the kitchen (open floor plan) kicked into overdrive and the smoke was gone in about 45 minutes.

I live in a downstairs apartment and the neighbors that live above me are smoking cigarettes and maraquana all the time. The smoke fills my apartment and I can't stand it. I have 2 airconditoners and the bathroom exhaust running all the time. So I researched the web and found that the reviews were very good for my problem. So I bought it and so far it works great. It stays on red most of the time but at least I can breathe in my own house now.

I purchased these hiking shoes just a few days before a week-long trek on the Alta Via 1 route through the Dolomites in Italy. I got frequent blisters with my old boots and figured that new boots without a break-in period couldn't be much worse...and I was right! These boots needed no break-in and I had no blisters or sore feet after 8 days and ~80+ miles of rugged trails. Traction is excellent and they are very comfortable.

Now we have purchased 2 Alen BreatheSmart 45i Air Purifiers this year for our home. What a difference they have made this year with all the heavy wildfire smoke. And the wildfires do not appear to be ending anytime soon. We absolutely love them! Actually, the Alen BreatheSmart 45i would make a terrific birthday or Christmas present for anyone who struggles with wildfire smoke here in California. Such a great gift idea!
