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

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.

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.

Very comfortable walking shoes with a great build quality.

loved them

Super comfortable and sturdy.

Well built, comfy and keep the water out. This is my 4th pair, worn everyday they last about a year. I work in a cafè where I stand up for long hours and do a lot of walking. I use them through all the seasons and in all occasions. The sizing in the latest models is a bit smaller so it's good to go half a size bigger, I went one full size bigger to be more comfortable and I'm fine with thick socks.

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!
