MerrellMen's Moab 3 MID Tactical Waterproof

Love these boots for work. Really comfortable. Will buy again.

Excellent product fit nice light weight

Love these boots very comfortable during my 12 hour shift.

Great fit. Waterproof. Good support. All around an excellent choice.

I had a pair of Merrell Moab 2 tactical boots that I liked so I got another pair of Moab 2's with Goretex when they wore out. I thought the first pair may have worn out prematurely when the sole fell off considering I spend most days on my couch, not hiking in them. I felt the same way when the Goretex started leaking in the second pair after just a few months of light casual use. I thought I'd try them again because they were comfortable most of the time even though they don't last long. The Moab 3's don't even fit the same way. I have worn a size 12 for over three decades. My toe doesn't even come close to the toe box like my previous two pairs. I thought it was a bad batch, so I got another pair. Same thing. Even the size 11.5 feel gommy. They feel awkward even after I pull the laces to tighten them more than they should be. Plus, they feel hard. Even brand knew they feel like I need to swap out the insole for a new one with more cushion to it. I don't know if all Merrell shoes are like this now or just this model, but I won't be buying them again. I'd return them except I have worn which voided the return policy. I'd recommend trying them at a local retail outlet before purchasing. I expect a lot more from a hiking boot in this price range. Not satisfied at all.

These Merrell s mob 3 are very comfortable and they look good. (There's several other models of these in black that don't look quite as nice.) They're easy to put on and take off and while they're listed as "waterproof", I haven't tested them but I'm sure they are. I tried on a similar boot by Skechers and they were hard to get on and off and they felt like a boot. The Moab 3 feels like a shoe. I got a better price thru Amazon vs going to the Merrels website.

Shoe seemed bulky compared to my other duty boots I own. They also run large. I ordered my usual size, but they were too big and I had to return.

I had the first pair and had to order a replacement because the eyelets broke on one of the boots. I then got the second pair of boots and the eyelets broke on the opposite boot before sending the original pair in. Those lasted 2 months before the sole started to separate at the toe.
