Merrell Women's Moab 2 GTX Walking Shoe

After trying and returning several other well known brands of walking shoe I bought these having had good Merrells before. They didn't disappoint. Very comfortable walking shoes that mould to your foot and support my toe that has arthritis due to an injury. I walk in these two or three times a day so they get plenty of use and a year later they are still going strong although starting to look abit worn. The waterproofing was brilliant to start with and has lasted well, although as time has gone on they have lost most of the original waterproofing and without reapplying it they were leaking badly. Re-waterproofing them has helped with this so now they are just slowly wearing out. Would definitely buy again.

This is my second pair of Merrill walking shoes, the other pair are a summer-weight version which I fell in love with when they cushioned my already raw heels, so I could wander around with impunity.I have wide-ish, thick, flat feet and am not a fan of having my toes rubbed by my shoes, so I bit the bullet and bought a half size bigger as an experiment. I'm still experimenting with tying the laces to hold my feet at the most comfortable but these shoes are just what I hoped. I do squeak a bit on shiny floors but otherwise warm, dry, comfortable and secure.

I originally bought the mens version and have been so impressed with them bought these for my wife.Not only are they very comfy and quite waterproof you can wear them all day no problem, and can be used as everyday shoes as well as being robust enough for hiking on trails.They can be a touch slippy on wet surfaces so take a little getting used to in that respect but pretty good still. The waterproofness is good of course you can't stand in too deep puddles with them being shoes not boots but only after 6 months or so do they let a little moisture in.They can be quite warm too, so whilst that is great when hiking etc. if you are going to wear them as everyday shoes you should bear that in mind.I would say though that will be buying more of these in future.

This is my fourth pair of Merrells, second pair of MOAB, the first with GTX and Vibrim soles. I've had them 6 days. Reading the reviews I knew to expect them to be stiffer. Unlike previous pairs they were not at all comfortable straight out of the box. The sole lacks any suppleness, the foot bed does not have the same arch support as I'm used to, the toe box is very wide and I have a D fitting foot in shoes. The tongue is cut short so lacing is further down my foot than I would like and dirt etc will be able to get in - it also means tightening the heal area of the shoe isn't easy. The worst thing is the tongue has the same material right through to the edge which means it folds on itself and is bulky which presses on my arch, as that is where one lace crosses over.18 mile in, thicker socks, re-lacing one shoe to skip the crossing over of the lace, adding arch support and I'm getting used to them. They are waterproof as I've walked through wet grass in a light shower but also accidently sprayed my feet with the garden hose.Edit I've added an extra star as once I'd completed a few more miles they have become more flexible and comfortable to wear.

I bought these shoes for my wife. She prefers wide fitting walking shoes because she has had problems with corns with many brands. She often chooses Meindle but she chose these Merrel shoes because of the stated wide fitting. The availability of half sizes is also a bonus. She is usually 5, but decided to try a half size up. The first notable thing about them was that they were easy to put on out of the box - not always the case with many walking shoes. The fit is comfortably wide and perfect with thick walking socks, but a loose in ordinary thin socks. She has worn them every day since she had them, mostly in wet weather. They are waterproof so far, but that will change with wear and tear as the shoes age - I don't know why people make such a big fuss about that. They look good. No complaints so far.

The Fit of the shoe was very comfortable as I bought the recommended size 6 . I am usually size 5No blisters or rubbing so very pleased with purchase

These must be faulty or fakes. The other 3 pairs of Merrell goretex walking trainers were waterproof even in extreme weather. These are definitely not. I wore them on a dry day, but the long grass was wet. After a few minutes, my feet were squelching, soaking wet inside the shoe. If you want genuine goretex, don't buy them.

Strangely, I bought these initially from Sports Direct and had to take them back after two weeks as no way were they waterproof, my feet ended up soaking. I saw them on here and decided to give them a second chance as the overall reviews were so good and I have had no problem at all with them. They are strong and sturdy and waterproof.

"MOAB" stands for "Mother of all hiking boots" according to Merrell. They really aren't kidding. I even wear these as a daily work shoe in addition to hiking. I work in the medical field and spend a lot of time on my feet and these shoes are incredibly comfortable and versatile. They also last a long time without showing excessive wear. My pair just recently developed cracks in the toe leather. I was surprised until I looked and realized I had been wearing them nearly 18 mo. That's a long time for a pair of shoes that get a lot of wear. I have had high end gym shoes show more wear after 6 mo. with the same use. These are expensive but you get your money's worth and your feet will be comfy and happy!!!

I didn't think I'd really like the shoes due to color mostly....When I put them on I loved them. Look classy and very comfortable.

Very comfortable and waterproof. Perfect for hiking or just going out in bad weather. I love them!

Como siempre calidad y preciosos

Very happy. Fits nice. A bit stiff. Waterproof. Lightweight. I bought a second pair for later.
