Customer Reviews Merrell Moab 2 Vent

I've been wearing Merrell Moabs for years. This would have been my 4th pair. One reason I like Moabs is the more narrow toe box. I was totally surprised when I took these shoes out of the box to see that the toe box had changed! The toe box was rounder and fuller---different from my old shoes. Not sure why Merrell made this change. I ended up returning them and ordering Merrell Outmost Vent. These fit great and the toe box is similar to the Moabs.

Nice design, comfortable and great for more serious hiking but a little heavy for my purposes.

Super sturdy shoes. I did not keep these because they were a little large on my feet. I have pretty narrow feet though.

I returned these because they looked a little too much like hiking boots. They were also too big.

I have a pair of Merrell like this with the high tops. I have wide, flat feet with narrow heels and have been wearing them comfortably all winter and spring. So I ordered the Moab 2, thinking it would be the same fit with a lower cut for summer walking. Even though I took out the liner and replaced with my own, I kept feeling the arch support poking into my non-existent arch.

The shoe is very heavy and is too small for me.

The shoe seemed to fit ok - I only tried on the right one. I did not like the fact that the area between the suede going across the top and the black toe cap the material puffed up. It had a very strange look to it. I am not keeping the shoes - great sale price but I like to love new shoes.

Too wide I have a pair from years ago and wanted these so much but they must have changed the template-/ even with heavy socks they’re wide.

I really like how this shoe looks before it is on my foot. I do have wide feet and high arches & order my usual size 8W. The toe box is roomy, but height-wise vs. width-wise, affecting the look of the shoe....it was obvious. The top of the toe seemed to be "inflated" or something...hard to describe. I'd say length was at least a 1/2 size larger than expected. Very cushioned around the ankle, but that give caused my sock to be sucked into the shoe when walking. Arch support is better than most shoes, even without an additional insert. At first they felt comfy right out of the box, but after about 10 minutes walking quickly in the house, I could feel that my pinky toe was not happy...maybe the padding should be in the toe box? Anyway, good price, but fit not for me. Sending them back.
