Merrell Men's Moab 3 Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots

These Merrell boots are very comfortable. I love how they fit and the toe box is roomy and my toes don't get smashed while hiking downhill. I have several different Merrell boots and shoes, and one thing I've found they all have in common is being one size small. My shoe size is 13W, and a Merrell in a size 14W fits me perfectly. So, buy one size larger and you'll be glad you did. Good looks, light weight, super comfy and of course, waterproof. This is a terrific boot, top quality.

Absolutely wonderful boots! I bought these based upon a review in the NY Times by a woman who's had them for several years and swore by them. I had to return the first pair because they were too tight, and immediately bought another pair in 10W, and man, what a difference! My toes have room to move, and I can wear them all day without any discomfort or fatigue. I found out later that these boots are best sellers, with people purchasing multiple pairs over the years, and I sure understand why. There's been some discussion that they are not really waterproof, but I don't care. I'll wear these until they're worn out, and then buy another pair. Great, great boots, and well worth the cost!

Let's be honest, these are great, comfortable, breathable, nice looking, long lasting (tough), light, tru to size, did I mention confortable? but NOT water proof, they can keep you dry on a regular rain exposure, but as soon as you step in a poodle deep enough to cover above the sole, you'll get water inside, not much but enough to be annoying. Don't take me wrong, I've bought 3 pairs of these and I think 2 of Moab 2 because I have accepted the fact they aren't waterproof, maybe we could say they are water resistant, but all the other things I like are enough for me to keep buying this boots, each pair lasts me around 2 years. (I'm a biologist and go out a lot to hot and cold places). Might someday try the GTX version but they still are out of my budget. PD. "New Earth" keeps better the shade of color than the "Earth" one wich turns to a grey like brownish tone.

I hike 4 miles everyday, rain or shine, snow or clear skies. For the past 90 days. 28 miles a week, approximately 112 miles a month or more. Anyway, got these boots 3 days ago, wore them twice on that four mile hike. The construction of the boot is good, it reminds me of a stretchy thick reinforced nylon sock. Don't know how waterproof it is yet but I can say that the comfort is off some. In my opinion the boot is too narrow, narrower than it should be and if it was a bit wider it would probably be more comfortable. I was wearing a pair of Nike Air Monarch's to do this daily 4 mile hike, sometimes I wear Carlsbad Wolverine boots, even wore a pair of Everboots and none of those caused my feet any damage, but these tight toed shoes, although they have outstanding treads on them, made my small toe on my right foot bleed long enough for a quarter sized stain on my sock. Which surprised me because I didn't exactly feel it and I the fact the material of the boot is so stretchy (it's not exactly the same as a pair of leather boots). I usually get foot wear a 1 size larger than my foot size, especially with Steel Toed boots, but with this pair of hiking boots I figured I'd go with 1/2 size larger but these boots run small in the toe area and squeeze your toes, the whole boot is basically like that. Walking on pavement there is so much tread on it that it feels like the heels are higher than they should be and the balls of the foot area is not very well padded. I put on a pair of thick wool socks but I had to squeeze my foot in the boot and it made it uncomfortable so I put on a thin pair and it was manageable. The thing is the boots are warm, even in 25 degree weather so I didn't need thick socks, in fact the boot fit best when I had no socks on at all but I'm not hiking 4 miles with no socks on. What sucks about buying boots online is that if they don't fit you have to go through the hassle of sending them back and ordering another pair, when that pair arrives it might not necessarily fit either, not the way you expect. Like I said, I've had the boots for 3 days, walked 8 miles over 2 days in them, the boots made my small toe bleed but without pain, but the treads give me so much traction that my legs don't get tired as fast and I have more endurance so it's a trade off. I'm hoping that over time the boots will stretch some and fit better, I'll just have to keep wearing them and find out. What I should have done is looked for this pair of boots or a another type of Merrill boots at a shoe store locally and tried on 1 size larger like I normally get. It's a case of live and learn, it's good to be certain that is for sure.

Husbands favorite shoe. Long lasting with comfort.

Love them, so nice and so so comfortable!! They run true to size too, I'm a 9.5 and they fit perfectly. Love my Merrell Mocks too, have several pair.

"WOW!" I literally said that when I stood up after tying these boots on. I have never owned more comfortable boots (or shoes). I was concerned at first because they are a snugger fit than I'm used to and they look more narrow than other boots I've worn, but I've been walking in them for over a week now and they are my new favorite boots. I feel sure they won't prove to actually be waterproof as every other boot like this fails that test after a month. But it doesn't matter. They are super comfortable and I plan to repurchase another pair of Merrell Moab 3 boots whenever I wear them out. Excellent Boot!

This our 3 pair of Merrels we order. I can say this brand lasts a long time. They are so comfortable and support the ankles so well. These are the perfect weight to walk or hike in. The color doesn’t fade and they do keep your feet pretty dry. The shoes run true to size and are really nice looking on the feet.
