Customer Reviews Merrell Moab 2 Mid Waterproof

Great boots with little to no break in required. Lightweight and comfortable.

Excellent for comfort hiking, the perfect shoes that protects you on the trail

I purchased these shoes a few months ago for my daily walks in the cold and wet winter. I was looking for a high-top shoe which was waterproof, light, and had traction. This shoe is waterproof and light, however the traction is not the best. I have noticed that the toe portion of the shoe slips on wet pavement when stepping from the trailing foot. I replaced the insoles with ones that are better for my feet. After walking 15 miles a week in cold and wet conditions they are still in good shape and comfortable. I am happy with the shoes overall, however I will be looking for a shoe from Merrell which has better traction on wet (maybe icy) pavement.

I bought these specifically for hiking in the cold and wet, and they get the job done. Haven't tested them in a sustained downpour yet, but so far they have held up to light rain and brief submerging while crossing streams. The ventilation is key, and allows water and sweat to escape while still keeping feet dry (unlike heavier leather boots). With wool socks ranging from heavy to mid-weight, these are comfortable in temps ranging in the 60s down to the teens. Again, varying the weight of your wool socks is key.

They are not as "cousiony" as I had hoped, but they are a comfortable shoe.

I love the boots.The only issue is the left boot makes a noise when I walk and rubs my heel a bit. I'm sure it will break in soon.

One thing I've noticed is merrells tend to run a little smaller than what you normally wear. Other than that, a good brand, but some are kinda pricey.

I've been wearing Merrel Mocs for a long time, but this was the first non-moc shoe I got here. It's been great so far. Very comfortable. Pretty waterproof. Good traction on hikes. The size is smaller than expected.

My first pair of Merrell shoes and I found them to be extremely comfortable, required no break in time and the size was as expected. Time will tell how long they last and if the waterproofing is gonna live up to its name!

Most comfortable boot I have ever worn. Remove from box and go, no breaking in period required. I absolutely love this boot. Waterproofing doesn't last forever, but is fantastic for early morning hikes or after rainfall conditions. 10/10 recommend this boot.

I purchased my first pair (Mid top) several years ago for a Peru trip hiking Marchu Pichu . Right out of the box worked great. Spent 7-8 days hiking with no blisters or hot spots. Lasted 5years excellent boots! Purchased a second pair of low top, they got wet several times and the glue separated the upper from the sole. I was disappointed they did not last very long like the first pair. Just purchased another pair of mid Moab 2 waterproof. Heading to Alaska now for a 10 day trip. Hoping this pair is as good as the first pair. I have tried keen and several others. Nothing comes close to the fit and comfort of Merrrell.

Happy with the purchase

I have had many Merrell boots. My only boot co for 20 years. As a geologist, I need good boots. This boot fit perfectly at my size 12 and looks good. It's a bit too low on the ankle for me though so I'm sticking with the Phaser!

Great looking pair of boots. Fits perfect and comfortable with my inserts. It is a little darker than what I expected. Overall it is outstanding.

I have wide feet with what some could call a bone spur on my heels. These are the only boots I've ever owned that didn't cause my feet to blister while backpacking/hiking. The toebox on the wide model fits great. The most comfortable boots I've ever owned. They aren't very waterproof would be my only negative feedback. A quick dunk or light rain and they stay dry. Anything beyond that and they will get wet. I would like to know the proper way to reapply some type of waterproofing and keep breathability.

This is a new hiking boot for me, so really don't know how it will perform and hold up. However, I have confidence in Merrell, since I've been a long time hiker and always wear Merrell.

Its possibly the most comfortable hiking boot I've ever had. The trade off is that its clunky and over-padded. I don't know how they can market these as waterproof though; there are paper towels that are less absorbent. Overall, you can go all day in these suckers.
