I am hard on footwear. I need the ankle support due to old injuries and these fit the bill for almost everything. I wear them to my office job, working outdoors on the farm, and

heavier than the non-waterproof version and are a little warmer as you'd expect. I have both. My only complaint is that these run a little smaller than the non-waterproof

I bought a pair of these shoes in 2019 for a winter trip to Germany. Those shoes kept my feet dry, warm, and comfortable. I wore them off and on for almost four years. This
past May I wore them on the hurricane deck at Niagara Falls and noticed that my feet were a little damp afterwards but after 3+ years of service, it was time for a new pair. I
got the new pair earlier this month ahead of a trip to Paris. I wore them one day at home to check fit and comfort and all was good. The second day in Paris was a bit rainy.

This shoe would completely ruin a hike!If the option to share pictures is disabled for mobile I would show just how soaked these shoes get after getting in contact with a couple centimeters of snow.

When the stream gets too deep, waterproof is no longer what you want, lol.The Moab 3 boots have become my daily wear after my back wore out and started complaining when I wore cowboy boots. The cushioning and weight are a lifesaver for those with a bad back.

They are comfortable and good for walking in dry conditions but they are not an all weather shoe. I bought them specifically to keep my feet dry in rainy weather and they totally failed on that front. I’ll look elsewhere for shoes from now on.

I spend 36 years in the U.S. army where good foot gear was a “must have”, built for tough terrain and various weather conditions. However, comfort was not a heavily weighted criteria. Civilian foot gear was just to opposite and wore out quickly, or worse, fell apart in use. I bought my first Merrell MOAB approximately 2014 and wore them for rugged Northwest outdoors excursions. The boots preformed amazingly well in all terrain and cold weather, minus deep snow. Hot weather, above 80F-90F I needed to change six and air cool my feet. As a moderate insulated boot, I wouldn’t wear them above 90F unless transitioning to higher altitudes where weather was cooler. My feet were always dry in wet weather and my inserts were upgraded once in 8 years. I can’t believe the ...

They have modernized tread, otherwise, the same boots. I love them. I immediately went to my upgraded inserts and feel like I am walking on air. These are surprisingly light weight for rugged foot gear. Highly recommend for ankle high foot protection among outdoorsmen.

Best boot for me. Wide Merrell Moabs, both lowand mid hikers, work well for me right out of the box. I have been wearing Moabs since 2007. Since they came out with a wide width for ladies (my foot is too small for men’s sizes), I haven’t looked elsewhere. The only complaint I have is that the shoe laces could be a couple inches longer. I end up buying longer laces just about every time especially for the mid hikers. I’ve taken my boots trekking in Tasmania, in the grass hills of Ireland , along the coast and mountains of Italy, in the high mountains of Colorado, as well as the the Washington Cascades, Glacier and Rocky Mountains National Parks, the AT within the Shenandoah National Park, in the Great Smoky Mountains NP, ….

I have completed one 6 km walk wearing my new lo-top Merrell Moab 3 shoes.The Pros:These shoes have excellent grip with their coarse-lug Vibram soles.The size is a good match for my 10½W foot size, so ordering online worked out. The shoes are slightly wider and longer than my `regular’ 10½W shoes, but this works well given the thicker socks that I tend to wear while hiking.The Cons:The outsole and midsole are sufficiently thin that I can feel the individual lugs of the Vibram sole pressing against the sole of my foot. I would not have imagined that this was possible. These are early days, but for the moment, this sensation is quite distracting while walking. I expected blisters or corns and calluses to develop, but they have not appeared so far.The sides of ...

This is not a problem while walking on level ground or pavement, but it could be painful or even dangerous if attempting to hike on even slightly uneven ground / trails.

NOT Waterproof in the slightest
5 November 2023
Very comfortable hiker. Love the arch support, great fit overall. But VERY disappointed that these shoes are not in the slightest waterproof. Maybe if you just encounter slight splashes of rain, but in long wet grass you WILL get very wet socks. I very much intentionally purchased these because of the brand and the waterproofing claim. In looking at the material I was skeptical, but the salesperson was adamant that these were very high quality, very waterproof hiking boots. My very wet socks claim differently. There are numerous other reviewers with similar stories. Not sure if these are just chemically treated in the nylon areas and perhaps the treatment is simply inconsistent on the shoes, but if you want waterproof, look elsewhere. Otherwise, they are very ... MoreVery comfortable hiker. Love the arch support, great fit overall. But VERY disappointed that these shoes are not in the slightest waterproof.

As a polio survivor I have split sizes (8.5 and 5, the 5 needing a lift and orthotic work) and so had to buy 2 pairs and take one shoe to an orthotist who could do the work and also put the Vibram sole back on. Once all that expensive work was done I broke them in and soon after took them on a strenuous trip to Peru including Machu Picchu and other such sites plus tons of city walking. They were and are nothing short of fabulous! Worth every penny! P.S. I'm 75 years old and have had lifelong foot and ankle issues and thus my standards for comfort, balance and stability are high. My Moab 3s gave me no blisters and have a very comfortable lining that prevents inner slippage. Externally, they have excellent sole grip and ankle stability even on wet, slippery, uneven ...

Try a few sizes at different stores. Why? Here's my experience: I wanted to get a discount on Merrell's website so my goal was to order online, but before ordering, I decided to try them in-store (not a Merrell store) and the medium size (7.5 - my usual size) fits perfectly and very comfortable; it was like walking on a cloud. I don't have very big feet, but I think my toes are a little bit bigger/wider than the average, and as I said, the fit was perfect. I was like, awesome, but I'd like to try the "wide" size just in case so I ordered the medium size I tried in-store plus the wide size on Merrell's website.Here's what happened: the medium size I tried in the store was not fitting perfectly anymore (my toes were squeezing and I felt a "pressure" above my feet, ...

Based on their answer, I decided to send them back, but first, I decided to go back to the store where I tried the boots for the very first time and guess what, they fitted perfectly... I was confused, again. The seller asked me to bring the boots I ordered online into the store to compare them together. Fun fact: it was the same size and the same colour indicated on the two boxes, but physically, it was not exactly the same colour: the ones I ordered online had a light grey line on the top of the boots and the ones I tried in the store had a dark grey line on the top (see the picture attached), and the batch numbers were different. I email once again customer service, and they told me they had made some changes that can affect the fit.So, in brief, I would recommend going to different places to try these hiking boots. As I said, my toes are a little bit bigger/wider than the average and the standard size, with the darker grey line, is the perfect fit for me - it's a perfect "in-between" between the standard size and the wider size, and they are very comfortable; it's like walking on a cloud! I can't wait to try these boots on a hike! They look good quality.

I have worn Moab Mids for something like 15 years, this was my 4th pair. I have loved these boots for their comfort and fit right out of the box, they have never caused blisters or hotspots, they were supportive and rugged but also lightweight, my absolute favorite boot. The design, however, seems to have changed and not for the better. I immediately noticed the new boots had a different shape than my old pair, but didn’t really think much of it. Unfortunately within just the first few steps of my hike I noticed an uncomfortable rubbing on the back of my ankles. After less than a mile a large blister had developed in the back of my right ankle and a smaller one was forming on the left.

Unfortunately within just the first few steps of my hike I noticed an uncomfortable rubbing on the back of my ankles. After less than a mile a large blister had developed in the back of my right ankle and a smaller one was forming on the left. There is a very stiff, thick seam running on the inside of the ankle about 2 cm from the top of the boot which is what is causing the issue. I was able to finish my hike after applying bandaids and moleskin and I was hoping the seam would soften but it really hasn’t done so and it started rubbing on my ankle bones as well. It took me years to find boots that didn’t cause issues and now I’m going to have to go back to square one to find new boots, which is very frustrating, especially after the amount I spent on this new pair.
