MerrellMen's Moab 3 Waterproof Hiking Shoe

The Merrell J035849 Moab 3 Waterproof in Boulder, Size 9M, is a versatile, well-rounded hiking boot that lives up to its reputation. It’s an excellent choice for casual hikers, weekend adventurers, or anyone needing a dependable all-purpose boot for trails with moderate to heavy obstacles. While it’s not the lightest or most specialized option, its blend of comfort, waterproofing, and traction at a reasonable price makes it a standout. If you’re a Size 9M with average feet and want a boot that’s ready to hit the trail without fuss, this is a strong contender. Just be mindful of the break-in period if you find it stiff at first, and consider your needs if you hike in consistently muddy or extreme conditions where lighter or more aggressive boots might edge it out. I give it a 4.5 out of 5.

I've had these shoes for almost a year now and came back to right a review...that should tell you something! They've been great. Over the past year, I've put a lot of miles on them camping and around town. (They are a hiking shoe with a fairly rugged appearance; so my wife usually grimaces when I wear them around town.)The first week I had them was spent at Boy Scout camp in OK. They were good in the peak of summer heat & humidity. But they've really been at their best in wet weather. The waterproofing has kept my feet dry in rain, mud, and standing water.They have begun to show minor signs of normal wear and tear, but I'm not gentle on my shoes and could really stand to take better care of them. Overall, they're comfortable, fit true to size, and perform perfectly in all conditions. I highly recommend them.

These are very well made, for durability, comfort & style .

I recently invested in a pair of Merrell Men's Hiking Boots, and I must say, they have been pretty good for what I was looking for.First and foremost, the comfort level of these boots is ok. Somewhat still and I am hoping that they will break in as time goes by. The inside cushioning and support are sturdy enough and creates an arch that for some could be too much.The durability of these boots is truly impressive. Constructed with high-quality materials, I could see how many people would be able to withstand the test of rough terrains, rocky paths, and various weather conditions. I use them for some heavy-duty lawn care and the reinforced toe and sturdy sole offer excellent protection, ensuring my feet remain secure and shielded against the elements.One notable feature is the effective waterproofing. These boots have kept my feet dry through mud, puddles, and unexpected rain showers, adding an extra layer of reliability to my outdoor adventures.The traction on these boots is outstanding. Whether navigating slippery surfaces or tackling steep inclines, I've experienced excellent grip and stability.I can see why Merrell has shown to be a quality company making quality shoes. Well worth the cost. Although I am not using them for hiking, I could feel confident that if you're in search of reliable hiking footwear that can handle various terrains while providing unmatched comfort, these boots are an investment well worth making.

I really love these shoes. They fit perfectly and were comfortable right out of the box. I appreciate that they are available in wide, as recommended by my podiatrist (his prescription shoes are expensive!). I have purchased North Face shoes for the past 20 years but recently they are cheaply made, which is why I tried Merrill. Was tempted to purchase another pair to stash away for my next shoe, thinking Merrill will eventually cut corners like most companies. Hopefully they stay committed to quality and reputation. Very happy I took a chance on the Merrill brand.Btw, although these are waterproof, I do not expect these to be leakproof. If I was concerned, I would have purchased the Gore Tex version of this shoe, which wasn't available on Amazon at the time.
