Customer Reviews Merrell Moab 2 Waterproof

I usually wear a 7.5 or 8. I ordered the 8—too small. Ordered the 8.—too small. Ordered the 9-–barely fits. I do not know about the waterproof because I do not need to wear them for 6 more weeks.

Clunkier than I expected but will be fine for hiking. Need a lighter style for training.

Bought them in my normal size 10 and thought they’d be fine, but tried them on later at the end of the day when my feet were swollen and they felt short. Decided to order 10.5 and think they are in fact more comfortable then the 10’s.

This shoe is waterproof. Hiked multiple trails up wet streambeds without an issue. It is low on the ankle so you can’t go too deep and no ankle support for hiking. Wide enough for comfort in 10 mile hike without being too big. Could use more cushioning on the bottom. After a few hours of rocky hiking the shoes lose some of the foot protection. Decent shoe. Good for moderate level wet hiking as long as not going through deep streams or puddles.

A great looking shoe, but runs way too small. I had to go up a full size. Will return and order up.

I purchased these shoes because a relative recommended I buy some waterproof hiking shoes for a trip to Alaska. Since I'm pretty clueless when it comes to different kinds of shoes, I purchased several pair to try to figure out which shoe would work well for me. I have a very high arch and tremendous difficulty finding shoes that are comfortable. Plus, my physical therapist has instructed me to make sure my shoes have some elevation in the heel, as flat shoes end up causing me back pain. Zappos' incredibly user-friendly return policy made this process worry-free and painless. Thank you, Zappos! Now, back to the shoes! Per recommendations by other reviews, I did order a half-size larger than my normal shoe size. This upsizing was just enough. Because I had never worn hiking shoes before, it took me a bit to get used to the feel of the (?) tread. But I worn them around the house, and I really started liking them a lot. I have come to love the look and feel of these shoes. We'll see how well they function on my trip!

Fit just like the comfortable Keen hikers I've loved for years. Only returned because I wanted a higher boot for more ankle protection.

So, far, so good! I have a really hard time finding hiking and walking shoes which make my feet feel supported, aren't too big or too small, and don't rub. So, I ordered 5 different pairs of hiking shoes to try on, opened the box and tried these first and just felt like I could stop here. In sandals I wear a 5.5, figured I'd get a 6 so I can wear thick good socks, and these fit with a pair of thick hiking socks very well. I returned the Keens (they just never fit me!) and another different pair of Merrell's. I'll update the review after first hike to make sure they're still working as well as I think and hope they will. A reminder for folks buying hiking and walking shoes--please try on with the socks you'll be wearing, and for hiking make sure they are good socks!

Merrell is my favorite shoe so I was disappointed when I received these and I sent them back. They were at least a half size too small and would have been a full size too small with thick socks. Also, they were heavier than I anticipated and they would have taken up too much weight and space in a suitcase. I purchased them because of the brand and because they are waterproof, not for rugged hiking. I still love this brand of shoe for it's comfort, especially the wide toe box and great arch support and will continue to buy Merrell shoes. Also, right after i bought these the price dropped from $120 to $96. I still would have returned them though.

Ordered based on all the positive reviews but they didn't work for me. I usually wear a 7 but ordered 7.5, and then an 8. Still didn't feel right and I thought they were rather clunky and heavy. Plus, they made my foot look really wide.

The arch support is too far back towards the heel. Very uncomfortable. I tried it with Spencos and other insoles, but couldn't get it to work for me.
