I love these hiking shoes. Very comfortable. This is my third pair. I like that I can buy them in a wide width.

I am impressed with the quality and comfort of these shoes...I wanted a wide shoe that looked and felt good, and this was the only pair I found that looked decent...I have a lot of foot problems (heel spurs) and wide feet, and most wide width shoes I looked at looked tacky to me...I wore these all day around town and they were comfortable...my feet did not get hot or sweaty inside them...I normally wear a 9 wide, but ordered a 10.5 wide due to foot swelling I've been having problems with...fit fine with a lightweight sock, a little snug with a heavier weight sock...these felt good right out of the box, just loosened the laces a bit...if the swelling in my feet goes down I will just put in gel insoles and a heavier sock, and tighten the laces...lots of toe room which is great, my old sneakers were crushing my toes. Just make these in a few more color options, I got the smoke/blue which is nice, I would have preferred a brown or olive...and keep the larger sizes and wide widths in stock!

I absolutely love these. Even though they may look bulky, they are super lightweight, and more comfortable than any of my sneakers. Great traction on slippery hiking trails. It feels like walking on clouds... perfect for hiking!

These were comfortable right out of the box. I did wear them around the house first before taking them on a hike. I also put in insoles as I do with most shoes because my ankle bone is a little low. I purchased them to replace another pair of Merrell's and they are so comfortable on hikes and walks.

I like this hiking shoe. Walking around the hose it felt like the arch was crowding to close to my heel sometimes, it was hard to pinpoint. But during an 8 mile strenuous hike I knew the shoe was perfect, no issues. It was a serious hike too with steep slippery trails, lots of scree, and 1800 foot elevation gain, plus coming back downhill. I bought a 6 1/2 wide and it fit perfectly, see below.
PROS:
1. good fit and well supported, the side ribbing helps stability
2. rugged up front toe protection that can take the rocks
3. good ventilation, my feet were not sweaty
4. laces stayed tied, but I always double knot.
CONS:
1. the insert is rigid, too much for me. I bent the dickens out of the arch area just to soften it up and it helped quite a bit with that feeling like the arch is in the wrong spot.
2. I like to place a gel insert on top of the original insert. But with this shoe I couldn't, it placed way too much arch support in it. I could remove the original insert and place a gel insert and it was great. But I choice to make my first hike without modifying anything. My next choice was to go get a [lain foam insert with no extra arch support, and that is perfect.
3. They don't make shoes like they used to... Everybody is cutting corners these days. There needs to be more material that pulls together over the tongue. I don't like how wide the gap is, the tongue area is almost it's full width. But even New Balance and Teva are doing things like this. Chea[pskates.
Even after all of the above, don't be scared to buy this shoe. It worked great on the trail.

These shoes are wonderful. There's no break in period, they're extremely comfortable and the traction is outstanding. They run a little small. I usually take a size 8 but I needed an 8.5 in these. I highly recommend Merrell and will definitely purchase again.

I have been wearing this model since I began hiking with my daughter years ago. They are always comfortable out of the box; I never have to break them in. They support my feet well. I am not a mountain climber, but I used them and they performed well in the desert sand and rocks of Joshua Tree, on the Adirondack trails, which are always relentlessly rocky and uphill, and, most often, on the flatter woodland trails around home. I wear them daily. I have to replace them every 1-2 years.

Bought these for my granddaughter. She was very pleased the first time she wore them hiking. Excellent fit and comfort. No break-in needed.

These shoes are so comfortable to wear especially for long hikes. The grip underneath the shoes is a 10/10 and my foot feels supported when hiking on rocks and steep surfaces.

Super light and comfy - exactly what I was looking for. Sizing was slightly large... until I put in my insoles (a must for me) so worked out perfectly.

Very excited to use these on the trail! Been using them around the house and on small walks to break them in, but they don't need much breaking in. Good heel control, not too heavy, breathe well for a hiking shoe. Very comfortable.

When I tried it on, I was so surprised because it was really comfortable and looked cute.
It makes my feet look smaller than my feet size. I think because it has round looked toes making it seem cute.
I ordered it for a 6.5 size and it was a bit wider than my feet. Other than that, it's great shoes!

I have small but wide feet and am active and on my feet most of the day. It is awesome to have a shoe that actually IS the correct size and wide width as described. Shoes were comfortable right out of the box. A friend shared her positive experience with Merrell shoes and now I am a BELIEVER! Just wish you offered more options in small sizes and in Wide as well. Merrell is definitely on my radar now!

I have an old pair of Merrell Moabs just like these, but worn well past their prime. Anyway, these are awesome, they have a few minor tweaks to the design but not too much because they were always great. Will buy again, but sooner next time! Thanks to Merrell for continuing to make this shoe.

Not my first Merrill but my first Moab Ventilator 2. And it won't be my last, they were exactly what I wanted! The fit is perfect offering stability and comfort for my bad feet! They didn't require breaking in. I wear them all day and they support and protect my feet! I love them.

Perfect fit for a medium width foot
I'm mid 60's and needed arch, ankle, heel and achilles support-this shoe checked all the boxes
Didn't even need any breaking in-no rubbing or blisters!
Walked 7 miles the first time on
Great ankle support and not restrictive to movement
Very light weight in comparison to previous shoe purchases
So nice looking---the base color is neutral and not clunky-looking and that pop of yellow makes it quite stylish
