## Description

For over a decade, the Merrell® Moab has been the choice of hikers when a choice needs to be made, making it the bestselling hiker in the world. Famous for its out-of-the-box comfort, durability and all-purpose versatility, its predecessors have enabled 20 million people to step further outdoors. Version 3 features a new more supportive insole, a softer more cushioned midsole, a grippier Vibram® outsole, and partially recycled fabrics.

Review: They are rugged and fair priced and most importantly built to last - I’ve had this exact shoe in the past. I’ve always loved Merrell quality . I’ve had their shoes in the past at the point that i’ve had to change out the insole before the outsole is even remotely wore yet thanks to their vibram construction. I also love these shoes because they’re a cross between going for wildness treks and simple city walking they are built like tanks but as comfortable as a Range Rover. I feel super locked in and they have plenty of room with their super wide toe box
Review: Merrells are still an excellent and dependable choice for walking shoes! - Sizing is accurate, support is terrific, cushion is just right, soles seem ruggedly constructed, and overall the shoe feels sturdy and durable. I have worn Merrells for 15-20 years, and I think this is practically the only brand that is keeping up the quality of their shoes these days. I don’t see/notice. any “cheapening” changes in my new ones. Right out of the box today I walked 4.2 miles in them and they were completely comfortable in all the ways I remember my previous Merrells as being.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Shoe!
*by A***R on July 27, 2023*

Before I purchased this shoe on Amazon, I had been trying on different brands and styles of shoes at various stores. I knew I wanted something built with good materials that would last me several years, look good with a variety of different clothing options, and work well for a wide variety of activities including hiking, working out, walking around all day, etc., and also at a good price. I'm not a fan of spending tons of money on several different pairs of shoes tailored to each individual activity. I found a pair of these at a store and really liked how they looked and fit. My foot fits well in the size I purchased, and there is some arch support as well, but not overpowering. I've never has a pair of Merrell's before, but they're known for good quality and these shoes look and feel like good quality. They have real leather, thick tractiony soles, an agressive look, and tons of color options. I've worn them for a couple of weeks and they feel great. The best part was the price. At the store I tried them on at, they cost $120. Then I checked on Amazon and they had my size for under $60. I noticed the price was different depending on size, and possibly color, with some of them costing as much as $120. I'm not sure why this is. You might want to select different options before purchasing to see if one size or color is a better price. They are also probably a bit heavy for people that want something really light for running or working out, but for me it just makes my workout a little more challenging. It's not supposed to be easy, right? Other than that, there were a couple of other little issues I should mention. For some reason, the shoe I got looked like a lighter shade than what was pictured. Then I held the shoe up next to the picture, and they looked the same color. It may be that the pictures were taken under different lighting conditions that made them seem a bit darker, I don't know, but I've seen other reviews that say the color is different, and I thought so too until I held them right next to each other. A trick of the mind. The last issue is size, and this is the most important. I'm glad I tried them on at a store first, because I generally wear a 10-1/2, sometimes an 11. At the store I needed an 11-1/2, but they fit perfectly! I ordered an 11-1/2, and again they fit perfectly. So I would probably order one size large if you want them to fit. On a last note, I liked these so much that I ordered another pair of a different color. I felt like these were such a great shoe at such a great price, it was well worth it to have a second pair. These will probably last me a good 10 years between the two.
