Extremely comfortable. Good gripping for light hiking. Warm, I would not recommend for hot weather unless you tend to be a cold person. True to size.

I bought these to replace a pair that was a few years old and was very pleased to see that the styling and construction hasn't changed. I especially like the wide toe box because I have bunions. The arch support provided isn't enough for me so I put an orthodic inside and wear them all day without any discomfort!

Comfortable! Lightweight and really fit well. I usually wear a 5.5 but in European sizing I wear a 36. These were a size 6/36 and the fit really well. These are comfortable the second you put them on. Really great shoes.

Do not order half a size up! I am a size 8 and it fits perfectly (after trying a 8.5 first which was too big). The arch support is great it hugs your foot from both sides. It's sort of strange at first (my old shoes had no support at all!) but as you walk around you realize how well it holds your foot. Finally the search is over! This is the one! Great style and great comfort!

I bought these shoes for my daughter for a 4 day hiking trip. She never bothered to break them in and they were perfect. She never got blister or rubbing. She thought they were great.

Great shoes for daily wear and light hiking. They breath really well so your feet don't get as hot on those extra warm days. They also work well with orthotics.

I love these, but after doing several long 10+ mile hikes, I think I need a half size bigger. My big toes hurt after walking that long, especially the toenails. I'm sure it is because my feet swell while walking and end up bumping the fronts. I got a 9, which is what I usually wear, and what my previous Merrells were (finally wore out after about 5 years), but I am about to order a new pair in 9.5 and see if that helps. The shoes are really comfortable and on shorter hikes they feel great. I am ordering the same model in the half size bigger because I really think these are the best. This non-waterproof version was more comfortable to me than the waterproof ones, which seemed more stiff. I also have very narrow feet, but these fit me very well, I just have to tighten down the laces.

I ordered 4 different shoes from Zappos and these were the ones I chose because they were so comfortable. Plus, I thought the color was subdued which is a big plus when traveling and trying not to look like a tourist. I can wear these for hours with no complaints at all. I highly recommend them. I love Zappos!

Purchased these just before a trip to Colorado where we did a lot of hiking. Right out of the box these shoes were so comfortable; we even wore them on flights instead of packing them. Great buy!

GORGEOUS shoe! I followed a review that said it ran 1/2 size small. For me, not so. I find all Merrell's run true.

Yay, 3rd pair's a charm! I never order shoes online, but Zappos has such a great return policy I figured I can't go wrong. I placed two orders for three shoes total and returned two pair - no problems. These were the most comfortable from first trial. I'd only tried stiff leather hiking boots previously and was amazed that quality hiking shoes could be both supportive and comfortable. I've already worn them for about a dozen miles (several hikes) and even for exercising via elliptical, rower and walks. I did order a half size larger than I've ever worn (regular width), because of other reviews, and was glad because the shoes did not crowd my toes.

Having a harder time breaking these in than the last pair of Ventilators in lime green. I bought a half-size larger but the toe box still seems more cramped than the last pair. They are still feather light and very grippy on the trail.

I am really glad that I splurged on these. I do not usually spend this much on shoes but these are really good quality and will serve me well. They had no break in period. I like the look of them. I am very glad that I read reviews and sized up half a size. They fit perfectly. I have wide bad feet but these work for me.

I bought size 9 and they fit great, despite me being a size 8.5 in sandals and lighter shoes. This gives me extra room and my toes feel great with thick socks for the winter. Thanks zappos community for the helpful reviews.

Aloha, I love, love, love these hiking shoes. I normally wear a size 8.5 I ordered it first...returned for the size 9. Perfect fit and I was able to walk 5 miles the first day without any problems. After walking 25 miles in one week I knew these were my new BEST FRIENDS. I recently enjoyed my new BFF'S for a three day hike around Hualalai volcano on the Big Island. trails with dirt, mud and lava. My feet were never happier under such conditions. Great Merrell quality and comfort.

Really a great shoe once I added special arch supports for my bad knees. Merrell shoes hold up for years so it's a great value. Will use for hiking, running, work, and walking the dog.

I had been tipped off by another Zappos reviewer that these Merrell run a bit small. I wear a 6.5 dress shoe and 7.5 running shoe. The size 8 Moab Ventilator were perfect in fit and sure footing for trekking challenging trails in Yosemite National Park. Lightweight and ventilated, a good choice for rough terrain or paved surfaces, too.

Very comfortable right out of the box. Wore them brand-new on a two-week trip on which I hiked three miles each day. No problems! I don't know how waterproof they are -- didn't test that element.

Love these shoes. I ordered a 1/2 size up and I don't think it was necessary. They feel very roomy. They are very comfortable and I had no break-in period or blisters. They were wonderful from the very start.

These were my third pair of Merrell sneakers. I absolutely loved the first two, a style that has since been discontinued, and lived in them for work and play. But all shoes eventually get shabby looking with that kind of wear, so I bought the newer model, Moab Ventilators. Sadly, they hurt my feet. It surprised me because of my past experience so I kept wearing them. During that time I have developed plantar fasciitis and now I have real problems! I want to recommend the shoes but feel like the changed style was not a good choice for me. Even though I now wear custom orthotics in my shoes, these rub me wrong in the toe area. I need new shoes and don't know whether to try another style of Merrells or look for something else.

These run true to size and are very comfortable. There was no breaking in time at all. The description for the laces however is wrong. They are not at all elastic. I wish Merrell would bring back the Chameleon Stretch for women as those had elastic laces!

I have plantar faciatis and my feet almost always hurt. These sneakers offer the support I need to keep my feet in line. The sneaker is strongly structured and may feel a bit "clunky" but for me the importance lies in the support they provide.
