Merrell Men's Moab 3 GTX Hiking Shoes

OVERALL:I have used these walking shoes for a few weeks before writing this review which I hope you will find useful and overall I am very happy with them. I have used Merrell walking shoes for years and have just changed from the Moab 2. I find that I can walk all day long in Merrell shoes I think that the footbed shape that Merrell use suits my foot shape.I have used these Moab 3’s for walking on pavements and fields in dry and rainy conditions and they have so-far performed really well and kept my feet dry.SIZING:I usually buy UK size 10s for my walking shoes and tried these shoes on in size 10 with some walking socks and found them to be just a little too short. The shop I was in did not have the 10.5s in stock so I ordered them from Amazon instead. Having received these in size 10.5, I am happy with the sizing. The Amazon listing does not seem to include the Euro sizing but I can confirm as per the attached picture of the side of the box that these UK 10.5s are also marked Euro size 45, USA size 11 and 29cm.LIFE:These Moab3 shoes have a different Vibram sole to the Moab 2s and perhaps because they are new they seem to be a little stiffer which I think is a good thing for a walking shoe. I usually only have to change my Merrell shoes because they have become worn out. Usually the sole has worn out but being so comfortable I am reluctant to change until something else starts to fail. I did have a couple of pairs where after the soles had worn the upper started to separate from the sole which was the final decision making point to change to a new pair. I keep on buying Merrell shoes so I am happy with the comfort/price/life equation.WATERPROOFINGThere is a GTX and non GTX version of the Moab 3 and as far as I can tell the difference is that the GTX have a layer of Goretex waterproofing but the non GTX versions do not have this layer which makes them more breathable. With previous Merrells I have found that initially the waterproofing is very good but when they have been used for a while and are nearing the end of their life, the waterproofing does seem to fail so time will tell how long the waterproofing works with these Moab 3.

A really comfortable shoe from first wear no issues whatsoeverGood value anda quality product would highly recommend

Very comfortable from the word go.They definitely come up small in size so I am glad I read the reviews and ordered a 1/2 size larger than normal; 10.5 instead of 10 and they are a good fit.The Vibram sole is a huge benefit.I can't speak for the waterproofness yet but will update later. If they are I will update to a 5***UPDATE**My only criticism of these shoes is that they do not appear to have been treated with water repellant on the outside and rely solely on the Goretex membrane. The problem is that when the outers get saturated the shoes lose breathability and your feet get damp through sweat or the water seeps through a little. I will apply water repellant to mine and would do so before use if I bought the same again. In spite of this They are good and very comfortable shoes..

Recommend this, did the 3 peaks challenge with these on and without breaking them in first. Yet it was super comfortable great grip and the waterproofing was fantastic. For the price it’s a steal.

Great shoes very comfortable and durable hope they last i think there good value

Excellent Quality, and comfortable

Very fast delivery, a day earlier than said. Seem to be very comfortable. Haven't gone hiking in them yet but have high hopes for them after the disasters I've had with other brands hurting my feet

I would have rated these as 5 stars as the quality of these shoes looks very good. The sizing was the issue for me. I ordered size 10.5 and my toes were firmly at the end, so would not have been any good for walking in. 10.5 is my normal size but these came up 1/2 to 1 full size smaller than I needed. I compared the sole size to my 10.5 boots and the Merrell's were significantly smaller. I ordered size 11.5 from another company (couldn't get them for the same price in my size from Amazon) and they fit perfectly. Now I'll see how comfortable they are on a walk and over time, how long they last.

Une valeur sûre... 👍

Chaussure achetée en solde 80€, j'ai pris une taille au-dessus ce n'est pas de trop.Elles sont légères et assurent un bon maintien. Semelle Vibram pour un bon grip surtout sur sol sec un peu moins sur rocher humide.Utilisée en rando mixte terre rocher.Cette bonne impression est à confirmer dans le temps principalement par rapport à l'usure.

Chaussure de qualité , confort et maintien de cheville , marque référence pour la rondo

Mi marca favorita, eh tenido la misma línea de tenis desde hace 17 años, aunque a veces intento algo diferente pero no me dura lo que pruebo aparte

Excellent price and on time. I like the shoe!
