Customer Reviews Merrell Moab Mid 2 Waterproof

Received a pair of these last Christmas, as requested. I always allow for break-in-time and I've worn them sparingly until a month ago working in the landscaping industry. My feet hurt terribly at the end of each day. I added insoles to see if added cushioning would help but i developed blisters on little toes and heal-raises caused blisters at the back of each heel. Have had may good experiences Merrell Products in the past but am disappointed with this pair.

I ordered and received a size 12 shoe which is the size I always wear. When I first put them on they felt too short with my toe all the way to the end of the shoe. I thought I would break them in they would stretch out. After 2 hikes i had blisters on the tips of my toes and cant wear them anymore. Beware order a size longer than you normally wear.

I've worn Moab Ventilators for years. Best shoe in the world. Have always worn 11.5 M. I bought a pair of Moab 2 Mid waterproof size 11.5M and am not happy. When I wear them, my feet sweat and they are too small, hurting my toes. When I called customer service, they said yes they will make your feet sweat since the membrane that makes them waterproof also doesn't allow them to breath. Also the added membrane takes up more room inside so you need to order a half size larger than normal. Wish I would have known these facts before I ordered. Now I have a pair of boots I've worn 5 times and I won't wear them again.

I bought a pair of these for a 20 mile hiking trip. A lot of the trails were kinda wet. By the end of the first day hiking my feet were wet and only got worse the 2nd day

Just was a bad pair must of been defective.. bought same exact pair in different color and love em . Mistakes happen I guess...

These hiking boots are NOT waterproof! I live in South Texas and just walking in grass wet with dew for 15 minutes completely soaks my socks and feet. I am very disappointed and have had to buy a replacement pair. The boots are very comfortable but cannot be worn when the path is wet. Thanks, Gary

I got a pair of Merrell Mid Waterproof boots and guess what -- they aren't waterproof, as you can see from my very wet socks. These were the third pair of Merrells I've owned, and all three were defective. I'm done with this company.

I bought these for a 2 week elk hunt in Colorado. It involved a lot of elevation changes and hard terrain basically extreme hiking which is 100 percent what these are advertised for. The tread is literally separation from the left shoe. I'm highly disappointed. Truly wish I could post pictures. The right shoe is holding up fine which tells me that it is clearly a manufacturing issue. Judging from most of the reviews, either I received a randomly flawed shoe or none of these people actually use these shoes for what they are sold for.

I've had two pairs of these boots and both have split/separated where the upper joins the sole. They are comfortable but I won't be buying any more. The dealer where I bought the first pair replaced them at no cost but with the second pair failing....................

I've only had them for a year and only use them on occasion, yet they are falling apart. The rubber sole breaks off so easily and the heal has completely worn away. NOT a good product!

I have owned a few pairs of Merrells over the years and have always been satisfied. With that said this last set of boots did not wear as well as expected. The lining on the inside became very loose and because of the friction it started to rip and also it bunches up when putting feet in or taking out. Also, the toe and heel gum started to break away from the upper part of boot. Upset with the performance of these boots especially because I haven't had them that long and haven't really put them through that much work.

I bought a pair moab 2 mid wp August 2018, they started leaking after 6 or 7 months. While I don't expect anything to last forever, 6 to 7 mos. leaking on a waterproof shoe is not what I expected.

I'm very disappointed with this product. I went for a 10 miles hike up Bidwell Park and after just walking on wet short grass both feet ended up wet! I let them dry and decided to clean the dirt of the upper and used a bit of water to wash the edges and despite avoiding contact with the upper (mesh) water got inside :( I'd like to return the product since I consider that the use of the word Waterproof is misleading!

I've had these boots replaced twice and all 3 pairs leak. They are very comfortable, but I would never recommend wearing them on an extended hike as you'll be miserable with wet feet. Spend the extra money and buy the Gore Tex version. The Merrell Dry just doesn't compare.

While this is not the exact boot purchased, it's as close to the Merrell continuum as they sell now. The boots I purchased were sharp/ rugged looking, had thinsulate / polartec insulation, and were supposedly waterproof. Problem is the soaked thru! Once wet your feet are freezing! Was highly disappointed!

I bought these thinking I would wear out the soles before having a problem with the boot, well about 2 weeks ago after only owning them less than 6 months the rubber cracked by the small toe on my right foot.

Liked the boots. But on 3rd day of wearing them the padding of the sole bunched up causing a hump between my big toe and toe beside it.

I've been buying Merrill hiking boots for decades and buying namely the Moab. The last two pairs came apart where the rubber meets the leather. It just ripped away and I didn't even wear them that much. So frustrating. I gave away the last pair but gonna see if i can get Merrill to fix these since they're brand new.

These things are the furthest thing from being waterproof. I have a pair of water resistant shoes that do a better job than these. Highly disappointed

Previously submitted a review for this item and wasn't posted... Am completely disappointed in these boots. Bought them in Dec. 2017 for the sole purpose of having a waterproof boot. They're comfortable enough and have reasonable arch support, but I wouldn't have bought them if they weren't "waterproof". Well I had a few moments during the winter that made me wonder if they were leaking but I thought perhaps some snow had gotten inside. Now, in the fall, I take my dogs out on the lawn for a walk in the morning and just the dew on the grass results in my socks getting totally soaked! So in nine or ten months or less, the waterproof feature is totally gone, and I've been very easy on these boots, low mileage. I see this failure as a recurring theme with many versions of this Merrell product. It would be nice if Merrell could do something to remedy this problem for me.

Purchased numerous sizes of moab hiking shoe had to return all sadly. fit is so poor as to size tried from 10.5 M to w to11.5 all do not fit well. my first pair 10.5 which is the size I have always worn since I was 18. Wore out my pair which is 5 years old 10.5 perfect hiked all over. trying to find one 2 years searching your product what is your issue with sizes I can try on 3 different pairs of the same size same model and all fit different... was a great hiking shoe brand

I am a fan of Merrell Moab having owned a previous pair for about 5 years. I recently ordered a new pair that arrived within 3 days of placing my order. I then took them out of the box and tried them on, they fit perfectly. I then looked down at them to discover that the toe caps on the boots did not match. The right boot toe cap was wider and installed higher than the left boot , they were not a matching pair!

Do not buy this boot if you truly need a waterproof boot. They fit great and are very comfortable when it's dry outside, but they are NOT waterproof. I was 5 miles back in a Colorado wilderness area on a hunt when it rained and had to end the hunt 2 days early due to wet feet from these waterproof boots. I am extremely disappointed in my purchase of these boots.

I bought these boots hoping for a true fitting wet weather boot. They fit me nicely despite e my EEE width foot and required no break in period. I was very pleased wit h these boots until it rained. Both feet were soaked after 30 minutes of walking my dog through toe deep grass. That's not my definition of waterproof.

This boot is comfortable. I purchased a half size larger. No break-in period. Boots are great except for the water inside waterproof boots. The boots were replaced once but I was told the store would do this only once. The first set leaked in both boots. The second set of boots only the right boot leaked. I guess it's an improvement?!?
