Customer Reviews Merrell Moab 3 Waterproof

The Vibram sole looks excellent for hiking. The design is good but the materials seem a bit lower quality than any hiking boots I have had. There is a weird crackling noise as if they are padded with bubble wrap or something. On the plus side, they cost less than other boots and the last is shaped like my foot. I will have to try larger sizes if I want to find some that fit.

Moab 3 Waterproof is a repeat purchase for me. The waterproof feature keeps wet grass at bay, and the Vibram sole helps avoid slipping. Fit is troublesome for me: Long foot, short toes, high arch – normal size in hiking/athletic is 7M. (Dress shoes 6.5 medium. or wide) I'd expect to fit a 7 medium or wide in this shoe, But the area above the fourth toe (ring toe) is just too short. So I kept the 7.5 W, even though in the foot and arch portion I would have preferred a 7 W. Zappos as so dependable, always perfect and super fast.

Merrell Moabs used to be my go-to light hiker. They ran narrow enough for my narrow, low-volume feet and fit perfectly. Now the 10s are too short and the 10 1//2s are ridiculously large. They fit in the heel and mid-shoe, but the toe box is huge in both sizes. Frustrating.

Repeat purchase of Moab Waterproof. I appreciate the Vibram sole, and the waterproof feature. I had a hard time deciding between 7 Wide and 7 1/2 Wide. My foot fit in the 7, but the toes were a bit cramped. I think the toe box is a bit too narrow at the end. As it hits the toe next that's next to my pinky toe, as if the end of the shoe cuts in too soon. I decided for the additional toe room of 7.5. Zappos is SO fast and accurate.

All-over comfortable shoe, as was a Moab mid height hiking shoe I bought many years ago. Hope it proves waterproof as advertised! Has good arch support for my feet and heel fits snugly.
