These are the best shoes I have owned to date. I use them primarily for disc golf and they would be great for geo-caching. They provide stable traction in muddy conditions and keep my feet very dry. I feel confident scaling uphill and down. They are sturdy and provide nice arch support. They also work well on cement and are comfortable for walking and casual wear. The shoes started out a little stiff, but I wore them for a couple rounds of disc golf and they now feel like they hug my feet well. These shoes have a padded insert that can shift a little during a round of disc golf, but I like that it is not glued into place so it can be easily adjusted by hand if needed without ruining the inside of the shoe. This may be due to the fact that my left foot is a size smaller than my right. I played in a disc-golf tournament recently and saw many players wearing Merrells. I normally wear size 14E shoes, but I purchased these in size 15D and I am happy with how they fit. I don't care about style too much, but I think these shoes look nice and serve a purpose.

This is a great shoe! I own and work in a shop that requires walking on concrete all day. I used to be a strictly work boot guy but since I have discovered these I have been much happier and my lower back has been in better shape as well. I bought five pairs and put them up in the closet so that I will have them available for a good long time.

Like all Merrells, this is a comfortable shoe for kicking up dust. The first time I wore them, I did a 12-miler in rain and snow. They were comfortable and dried out quickly. Two days later, they went on a 14-mile hike at a 3.5mph pace and they were great. The next day, a 10-miler broke them in even better. They're snug, lightweight and durable. Size seemed snug at first, but relaxed after that trip and are perfect a month later with almost sixty miles on them.

Great shoe! Lightweight, extremely comfortable, and with outstanding tread. I have a very high arch, so I have to put an arch insert in, but that is my fault... not the shoe! Would recommend without any reservations.

I spent two weeks hiking in China with these shoes and they worked great. I was walking both in cities and in the countryside, and while I had no problems, they really do seem more suited for trail hiking instead of walking around on paved sidewalks. They have an aggressive tread and are very sturdy, which means that they're heavier than tennis shoes, but that's to be expected. I would buy them again for weekend/day hikes.

Great hiking shoe. I am an active geocacher. I don't always want to wear hiking boots. These are a great alternative. They have held up well with continuing abuse.

Great for camping -
I wore these to a camp out the day after I got them. Wore them three days straight outside on my feet most of the time. They were very comfortable. They are now my casual shoe of choice for anything from camping to running errands. I bought these because they come in a wide width. Regular width shoes are always too tight but these fit great. Great shoe.

Comfy Shoes -
I bought these to deal with the snowy/wet winters in North Idaho. I love having Gore-Tex in my shoes!
Additionally, these shoes are very comfy to wear at work and around the house. They feel better than the Nike running shoes I'm used to wearing.
My original pair popped an air compartment after only a couple of months, but Zappos replaced them no questions asked. I even accidentally forgot to return the box the shoes came in and that was not a problem.

Good Shoe -
The reviews I read were mostly accurate which helped me in deciding to buy these shoes. The size is about a 1/2 size smaller than my normal size, which one review mentioned. They are indeed comfortable from the moment you slip your foot in. With most shoes I have a heal slippage problem but NOT with these. I like the firmness level of the sole. When you twist the shoe it offers some resistance somewhere between a firm running shoe and a hiking boot. This is what I want for the multi-purpose uses I put the shoe to throughout the week including walking, day hiking, up and down ladders at work, etc. I prefer the GORE-TEX version of this model so I am not concerned about slightly wet conditions ever. The tread design is sort of an all-season design which works for in the hills or in town.

Can't go wrong with Merrells!
These are my 4th pair of Merrells, Merrells are the most comfortable shoes I have worn. They do run small so I have learned to buy a 1/2 size up. These Moabs are nice looking hiking / sneaker type of shoe with Gore-Tex protection. Merrells tend to cost more but as they say, you get what you pay for!!

Great shoe! Purchased these for my job as a groundskeeper, which is pretty much an all-weather gig. I can get these very muddy and wet, and my feet stay dry all the while. They are also very comfortable. I do quite a bit of walking, so these are a must.

Great shoes!
You can never go wrong with Merrell's shoes and Zappos' service. Thanks both for the best experience.
Merrell's Moab GORE-TEX XCR are the most comfortable pair of walking shoes I've ever had.
They look great too!

I had much higher expectations of Merrell. I ordered a bunch of shoes from Zappos and compared them all in my carpeted living room. The Moab seemed to win on overall build quality, weight, and feel. Now that I've actually worn them outdoors though (and can no longer return them to Zappos--sniff) I am very disappointed. The toe area is rigid and uncomfortable and didn't break in even after several hours of hiking. The size is also way off and already destroyed two pairs of perfectly good socks because of friction in the toe area. To top it all off the laces keep coming undone and are in fact starting to fall apart! (This is all after about 10 hours of total use.) Probably my last pair of Merrells

Great Shoe! Please keep selling forever -
This shoe is perfect for those who lead and active lifestyle. Very comfortable and waterproof is a big plus, not too hot in the summer time, but not too much of a winter shoe. Great spring summer and fall outdoor hiking and walking shoe.

The other reviews were highly accurate, particularly with needing to order a 1/2 size larger. A very comfortable shoe that can be worn for multiple activities.

Good solid hiker/winter sneaker -
This is a very good shoe, but I liked a similar pair or Merrell's that I had several years ago a little bit more. The fit would be better if they offered a 12 1/2 size. Although this pair of 13s was slightly too big, I made it fit better with a pair of SuperFeet insoles/orthotics.
