I've only ever owned Merrill hiking boots and decided to move to trail runners. I found these to first of all, not be true to size (I am always a 7 wide but these were a bit long), although very comfortable. The laces are very sturdy and snug if tied tighter, which helped with sizing. After a little more than 100 miles, they started to fall apart, first with the sole in the front near the toe, and now crumbling in the back. Very disappointing! Maybe it's the Moab trail runners, but now I'm nervous to try other Merrill trail runners!

My left foot is perfect; my right foot is sadly sore my investment did not turn out as good as my first pair of Merrrell shoes. Disappointed.

I wanted to wear them to work, but the sole is too stiff. I wanted more of a sneaker feel.

I'm used to the Moab two. These are lighter but fit weird at the ankles. Always to loose or to tight

I ordered the size I normally wear in this brand and my foot was swimming in this shoe. The entire shoe felt long and wide on my foot. Kind of stiff and cheap and plastic looking. Not worth the price in my opinion. disappointed.

This was a nice shoe, the foot bed was so comfortable! But as I walked in them, I found that the top of the shoe rubbed on my ankle bone. This may be a good shoe for you, but I have strange feet that are hard to fit. Bummer!

One of the loops for the laces broke within 2 weeks. I love the shoe. I’m struggling to find another shoe I like as much for my hiking trip and training, but I’m having to order another pair within 2 weeks and that’s very inconvenient and frustrating. I had broken them in and was feeling good about my trip.

Nice shoes but I bought the Moeb since I have two other pairs that fit like a glove. This one is longer, more narrow. I have a bunion so need the wider footbed. Also, I was looking for a light weight hiker. The tread on these is more for hiking smooth flat trails. I decided I would try them out but wish I just returned them.

I got these as Merrell was a brand my podiatrist recommended. They are comfortable but I don't like the tongue or the laces it come with. The tongue is too bulky and the laces come untied all the time unless double knotted but overall , considering online shopping woes of not being able to try them on prior, they will work.

I have the purple shoe and I like the look of them but I can wear them very long they make the bottoms of my feet hurt. They don't have enough cushion or something. I ended up not wearing them anymore, I bought them from a local store but don't have the receipt, I wish there was a way to return them for something more comfortable.

Least favorite of all my walking/hiking shoes. Certainly didn't feel as well made and supportive as expected for the high price I paid for them.

I thought these Moabs would feel light than the original Moabs. They are not comfortable, I bought on line and wore them already. They would not be my go to shoes when I want to take a long hike. Disappointing

One of the features of this shoe is supposed to be a bellows tongue to keep out debris. However my shoes arrived today and the tongue is detached at the sides (see photo 1), not attached like a bellows (see example photo 2). Have reached out to customer service.

I want to start that I am a big fan of Merrell and have been wearing their brand for over 8 yrs now everyday walking on cement floors at work wearing the Moab 2 hikers and love them. Thought I would try the Moab Speed just not the same for me. My foot moved around in the shoe so if there is a next time to try these shoes I would get a half size smaller than I usually get. My experience is that Merrell's do not need any breaking in; if they feel good the first time they are good. Unfortunately I took a chance ordering online, but I took a chance on the Barefoot Style Trail Glove 6 and they were fantastic so this style might not have stood a chance for their purpose.

The shoes themselves are great, but the laces are different sizes, and there are defects in both of the insoles. The fit is uncomfortable and uneven.

I really wanted to like these shoes, but like I’ve read in a few other reviews the heel would slip every time I took a step. I tried tightening the laces, and it didn’t help. It’s like the heel is oddly wide. I had to return.

I liked the fit and look of these shoes. The first pair I bought fit well but had a defect in the insole that made it very painful to wear. I sent them back and exchanged for another pair of the same shoe. The new pair just came and had the very same defect in the insole but this time in both shoes. I am very disappointed in Merrell's quality control. I have worn Merrell's for many years. I am very grateful to Zappos for making it so easy for me to return these shoes.

I wore these 1-3 hours daily for 2 weeks. I experienced pain in my right knee after the first week. My left knee joined in dislike of these shoes after the second week. These shoes look great but something off with them.
