I purchased these for a work boot. I have used them for a week and they are really comfortable. They are very light for a safety boot and at this time seem to be holding up. A bit on the pricey side, but my company pays the lions share.

I waited and waited and waited . . . FINALLY found a good deal and pounced. They are by far the most comfortable boots I have worn in my 14 year career as a LEO. I have read some reviews about people complaining about the feet sweat during warm weather. Well anyone in Law Enforcement should know season shoes should matter if you have season. 6-8 months out of the year I can wear them without issues. Where I work it floods(a lot) and my feet stay dry. Stand a long time they feel great. If I was too say something bad they can be a little heavy on a run.

These boots are very comfortable. They fit as expected and I have recommended them to numerous co-workers. I had a slight issue with one of the boots and customer service took great care of me right away. Thanks Merrell!

Fit as expected. Very comfortable right out of the box. Really like the zipper, and they shined up nicely!

I just ordered my third pair. They last me about a year which is impressive as I run hundreds of miles in them conducting K9 training and K9 deployments. They are mostly water proof and more importantly they dry out quickly (water proof means nothing when swimming through chest deep creeks and rivers). Very comfortable and no break in required.

Been in law enforcement for 26years and wore several different brands throughout the years for both patrol and special operations. Have been extremely happy with these boots and wear them for both SWAT and 12hr shifts.

These are possibly the best boots I’ve ever worn for work. I wear them in the winter because they are waterproof and I plan on buying these until I retire. I just wish I could find a non waterproof for Sumer time.

I am a disabled veteran and a Law Enforcement Officer. Because of my bad knees and back I have to be very picky about my footwear. For a while all I could wear was a boot brand that rhymes with Panner but I found that Merrell made tactical boots and had to try them. I won't wear anything else now. I can not only make it through a regular shift with ease but I can work doubles with no problems. They are the most comfortable duty boot I've ever worn. Running, Jumping, and Fighting are easy and far less painful in these boots. I use my uniform allowance to buy a new pair every year I have never had any fall apart in the year I use them and I am on pair number 4, I love them! I expected the water proofing to be extremely hot in the summer but it wasn't bad at all! The only bad thing I can say is that the leather on the leather toe version is hard to shine. They will take a shine eventually but it took some work.

I wear these for law enforcement as my winter boot and they’re my favorite so far. Very comfortable. They have very good traction and are quiet to walk in. I have walked through snow, ice and water and haven’t gotten wet at all. So far they’re pretty warm but I’m guessing they’re not made for below 0. I would recommend them for any work or even hiking need.

I’m a woman’s 8.5 and these fit nicely. My previous work shoes were causing knee problems and limping. It took a day to get used to the arch support. After a week of wearing for 12 hour days I am no longer in pain and can walk with ease. The boots are an ease to slip on with the side zippers.

Having worn and loved other Merrels I tried the new Moab Tactical. Fits my foot like a hightop basketball shoe. Super light without the bulk of other side zips I've owned. Great comfort with all day use. My feet are not tired at the end of the day. Thanks Merrell!

I had to switch brands and my Merrell hiking boots were so great, I figured I'd give the tactical option a try. Best decision I could have made when finding a replacement to a brand Inwore for a decade. Walking on asphalt and concrete all days takes a heavy toll on my feet and within a few steps, I knew my feet were in love.

After years of working out, hiking, and spending hours on end of standing on crime scenes and perimeters my feet have taken the brunt of it and I now suffer from Plantar Fasciitis. A few years back I discovered the Moab series shoes for hiking. I found them to be so comfortable they became my daily wear. When I saw they started to make a tactical boot I jumped on them. I've tried other tactical boots but I've always had difficulty finding them in a wide width and you couldn't shine them. I opted for the leather toe. With a little bit of work I was able to get a decent shine. Of course they have all the comfort and features I have come to expect from Moab.

They were 1/2 size big, had to order down. Comfortable. The area around the calf is weird without socks. Sqeaks on floors when wet. Good grip tho. Overall good boots so far.

I have several pair of Merrell footwear they're all 11 1/2 just like this boot but this boot seems to be a little more loose fitting and I may have to wear a heavier sock than I planned on using

Sizing is accurate but the look and feel of these boots were just not for me. Also for police and uniformed security, the styling is a little radical to please most managers.

It's great for people with a wide foot, I have big paddles and these fit great, personally I wish they were 2" higher for blousing military combats other than that I would have given them 5 stars
