I bought this pair of hiking boots for my husband, who hikes five mile trails in our mountains. I thought he would need to break in the shoes before going on an extended hike, but he was pleased with the comfort and support offered. He loves the boots! It is his second pair.

I don't often write reviews, but I thought it necessary in this case because of how happy I am with these boots. I've only been wearing them for a few hours, but they are great in every way. It snowed this morning, I trekked 2 blocks to my car, cleaned it off, a few inches on the ground, got in, and my feet were totally dry. Been in the office now for a few hours, totally comfortable and breathable as described. Highly recommended.

Great boot. My husband has worn this style for years. Unfortunately he injured his ankle and has to wear a brace. Ordered a size up hoping it would fit with the brace but it did not. Will be searching for a solution. I love Zappos!

I've worn these for the last week (typical break-in process) and quickly realized that they do not require one. They are extremely comfortable, do not make my feet hot, and provide awesome support. I paired them with some "Darn Tough Coolmax Boot Sock Full Cushion" socks am very pleased.

I purchased these for my husband and the first thing he said when he put them on was, these are so comfortable! He was going to wear them just for work, but he loves them so much he wears them all the time. Great fit, super comfortable!

Excellent boot for the money. This is my first pair of the "boot" style. Great fit. Wore them right out of the box for several hours with no issues. Own several other pairs of Merrell gore-tex shoes and have been very pleased with all of them. Zappos service is outstanding. They have always delivered great service and that keeps me coming back! Friendly people, great products, great service!

This is the absolute best of Merrell. Comfort support, and easy to slide on and off if you keep the laces a little loose. Awesome.

Very comfortable shoe right out of the box. I haven't gotten them wet yet so I don't know how well they keep your feet dry, but if they are like the last pair I had they should be fine in damp conditions. Because they are made outside of the U.S.A. they run small. I normally wear a 9 D, but had to order a 10 D in this shoe.

Great fit - and great water resistance! We're still getting snow here in the Rocky Mountains (16" on May 12, '14) and these boots have served well during this storm. Firm footing and lightweight, these are terrific shoes for me.

These boots are awesome. I have been wearing them quite a bit lately due to the snow on the east coast, and they are versatile enough to wear into the office as well as brave the snow. They have stayed waterproof on the disgusting streets of Manhattan (where the street corners are giant ice/snow/slush puddles), on a recent ski trip to Vermont, and shoveling the driveway. All while being comfortable enough to wear all day walking or at my standing desk at work.

I bought this shoe two years ago. This shoe has lasted me for at least 2000 trail miles and are just about going out. But this shoe saw me on a lot of adventures in the backwoods. Never let any water in and we've gone through a lot of streams and puddles together. The grip worked great even on wet granite. When my friends were slipping mine held true. Needless to say I love this shoe!

Extremely comfortable shoe that keeps my feet feeling great even after a full day of rough terrain. Mid-cut gives a bit of extra ankle support and the Gore-Tex is a life saver. Seems to be well constructed, has held up well thus far. Not the best looking/most stylish hiker, but function is definitely more important than form.

This is a good solid light hiking boot that is waterproof and very comfortable for all day wear. I have used the boots for long drives and plane trips as well as hikes and it performs well in all respects.

My first Merrells Moab hikers were size 9 and fit perfectly. After 5 years, it was time to replace them, but the newer version of this hiker is narrower than before. I will try the 9 Wide and hope they fit!

I wouldn't look at a shoe if it didn't have Gore-Tex, next, are the reviews and this boot had plenty of well deserving good reviews. I love them. The fit is great since I have a wide foot (E) and Merrell is one of the last manufactures to recognize this, I think the fit is perfect. Lots of toe box room in this hiking boot in the wide size. My use is in hiking, walking and in snow. Sure, I would recommend this boot to a friend, very nice.

First of all, I have only taken these out on three trips, so take that for for what it is worth. I needed all-purpose, all-season backpacking, day hiking, and bushwhacking boots. I have been through a pair of "high end" mountaineering boots that tore my feet up, an aging pair of old Nike hikers, and searched for months until I finally settled on these. I realized the mistake I have been making is not buying wides, and Merrell is one of the only hiking boot manufacturers that makes wide sizes for almost all models. These were the only wide boots I found that were right around 17-19 ounces per shoe. Plus, I have never owned a bad pair of Merrells. The boots are fairly light (19 ounces per shoe at 11½EE), very comfortable right out of the box, and totally waterproof. My feet were toasty and dry during a 10 hour snowshoe in 5°F weather. I will say if you are looking for summer boots, get the Moab Ventilators, since the Gore Tex model gets hot. The Moab ventilator low top is also a perennial favorite among thru-hikers. They are great boots that are great for big guys with wide feet and not too heavy for all season use. The style is pretty bland, but who cares when you are outdoors.

I have no time to shop. I have no time for drama. I have no time for nonsense! I know what I want and when I need it. Zappos delivers on time as promised - never an issue. I am happy beyond words with their delivery, customer service, product line. Try it, you will love it. Happy New Year.

I took these right out of the box and into my suitcase for a camping trip in the mountains. I wore them all weekend and they were very comfortable. I am thinking about the same shoes in a different color. I have got a winner here!

These hikers are EXTREMELY comfortable, light weight and waterproof. I don't know how Merrell does it, but they just make shoes that are way more comfortable than any other manufacturer. Highly recommend these. Oh, you can also walk the dog in them.

Being hesitant towards online purchasing I wanted a live person. Zappos professionals are most helpful making one sure they will get what they want with no hassles. I mixed up my numbers and originally ordered the hot weather style selection of the same boot. Upon arrival I called Zappos and they right away sent the Gore-Tex boot out with no hassles. Their return procedures are varied to meet your style. I could not be pleased more with my boots and my Zappos. I have very high arches so I automatically use my Birkenstock supports so I have no comment to the boots support since I never wore them without my needed support.

I'm a UPS driver on my feet all day in all weather. This is my third pair. Durable, waterproof and light weight, best footwear I have ever owned.

Boots feel great out of the box, I wear them daily around town and on hikes etc. As mentioned by others a pair of good insoles take these over the top. I've had them submerged almost to the top and the Gore tex works as advertised. I'm not really understanding the complaints about the purple coloration, the pair I received was more brown than purple. All in all great boots.
