Customer Reviews Merrell Moab 2 Vent

Haven't got to use much but just wearing around needs more cushioning in insole

I ordered a wide width as that usually works best for me. The shoes were too big, and the left foot significantly longer than the right. I never got to use them.

The Moab has been the only shoe that I can wear over the last 2 years due to some foot issues. It was time to get another pair but when I tried it on, something was different. It felt tight in the toe box and the worse part, they changed the insert material. It is now a different material that is hard, less flexible and doesn't cushion the foot. I was fortunately able to find an older version at a local outdoor store but I don't know what I'm going to do when I need to replace that one. I literally wear this shoe everywhere and I might have to start my search over for another brand.

I want to love these and at first glance I really did. I'm a hard to fit size for a woman, 11 WW (when I can find it) but after reading the reviews I gave them a try. The 11 W really fit perfectly out of the box! And I didn't think this particular boot could ever be called cute but they are, especially like the Smoke color. I've been looking for something besides the typical white sneakers I usually buy for an upcoming vacation where we'll be walking a lot on pavement. These truly are comfortable-fitting and not as heavy as you'd think they'd be. BUT the footbed is very very hard, not cushiony at all and I even tried them on with thick socks. I'm going to try them around the house again tomorrow for a final determination, maybe think about replacing the footbed with something else but for this price I expected more cushioning, especially since they're primarily a hiking boot. The jury's out, I really want to love them and I can't believe that I found a pair of good-looking, durable perfect-fitting shoes with just one (big) flaw.

Bough a pair of these to replace my well-loved Mesa Ventilators which (very sadly) are no longer made. Those shoes fit so perfectly, but I thought it might be time to go for a new pair (after 10+ years and THOUSANDS of miles!). I bought the Mesas as a replacement, but was not impressed. The arch is in the complete wrong place on my foot. I had to go up a half size to get the arch where it should be, and then the toe box is so big, I feel like my toes are swimming around. I don't think I will keep them... I might have to find a different brand of shoe, which kills me because I love the dependability of my Merrells! For me, the worst part about all of this is that I donated my old pair and now wish I had them back! I'm sure they have another five years in them, and I'm out a pair of good shoes. At least someone else got a used pair that will last a good while...

I had to return because the fit was much larger than I expected. I usually take a size 9. The boots look solid and well made so I have re-ordered in a smaller size.

I really like these shoes, but I should have gotten the wide style. I didn't realize how much my foot would spread during a hike. Normally wides don't give me enough support so I didn't go for it. I'll wear them out because I'm stuck with them now, but will be sure to get wide next time.

Wore these on a hiking trip. The last thing I would have thought was my feet killing me. These really were brutal on the bottom of heels and oddly around heel.
