Best Boots!

Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2015

Verified Purchase

I bought these boots the week before I left for SE Alaska this December (think rain rain and snow). That was a couple of weeks ago... Trusting the sizing and "break in" comments, I pulled the trigger... I tried them on at home just to see if they'd fit, then packed them up and a day later I was in Alaska... For ten hours a day for a week, I tramped around in the rain & snow and never got cold, or wet or sore feet!

In the "Old Days" boots needed to be "broken in" or you'd be in a world of hurt. Those days are gone! From the moment I put these boots on, they felt like track shoes, but with more support and with more tactile feel in the soles. Thicker insoles would be better if you were to carry a LOT of weight, so NO, these boots are not meant for heavy duty backpacking or for strapping on 12 point crampons to climb frozen waterfalls, but short of that, if you use them for what they are designed for, you won't be disappointed!

FIT: I normally wear a 10.5 W shoe and I chose 10.5 W for these boots and they fit PERFECTLY!

LONGEVITY: Since I've only had these boots for a few weeks, I can't really attest to their longevity, but they seem to be really well made AND they have Vibram® soles, which to me that is REALLY important. (Check the reviews about other boot soles and see why Vibram® is the best!). Having said that, longevity for boots obviously depends on how much you wear them... On the other hand, being that that are more comfortable than most of my shoes, I could bloody well wear them out before their time... :-)

In Conclusion: For anyone who goes off road as a hiker or anyone in the Military/LEO/EMS/FIRE/BP/INS/ForestService, etc, I would HIGHLY recommend these boots. Being breathable light weight and waterproof is wonderful, but the comfortability is bloody FANTASTIC!

No surprises. Great boot...so far.

Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2013

Very comfortable, fits my normal size with no surprise. Sizing is always a concern but I'll add no more to the positives others have added. Yes, the laces do come undone but I attribute that to newness rather than boot quality. (Nit-picking whines don't curtail my buying selection.) I'll double lace until they wear enough to maintain friction.

Weather is just starting to turn cool here in Japan (10/30/13) so have just barely gotten out of my flip-flops. Got the boots wet in a storm the other day and there was no water anywhere, even on the outside! I bought them for winter weekend hikes with my mates and so far they look like they'll fit the ticket.

What REALLY surprises me is the ease of getting in and out of the boot. I'm used to a fight in both directions with hiking boots but these are no more difficult to get on and off than a pair of deck shoes. I consider that a big selling point which will bring me back to this company if I'm ever in the market for another shoe from them.

While I won't be rock climbing I WILL be going up and down some slippery slopes of mud and rock on my hikes. The tread grips very well wet or dry which is a big plus for us seniors who need all of the help we can get when it comes to safety and agility.

Naturally longevity cannot be measured at this point however I expect to get a lot of miles out of this boot.

An excellent light weight boot that makes walking anywhere a pleasure

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2015

Verified Purchase

I wore these for the first time to Shiloh National Park, and they wore and fit excellently. A mid boot is really an ideal situation keeping things out of them, while a taller boot would have been too hot, and uncomfortable in shorts. I wore these with a pair of Merino wool socks, and my feet stayed dry all day long, as opposed to sweating in other brand of socks or boots. As others mentioned, they required no break in what so ever, being very comfortable, light weight, while supporting my ankles. I normally wear an 11 1/2, and as others pointed out, going up a 1/2 size worked for me too. The only thing I wish was a thicker or more padded sole. The sole felt a bit spongy, being very soft, and I could feel rocks more on the balls of my feet than other boots. They worked great on trails, and I could really pick up the pace in these light weight boots, almost as if they were walking shoes or running shoes. I had an added arch support insert, and hopefully adding a full insert will help with the soft soles. If that part of the boot was more solid or had more cushion, these boots would be perfect. I purchased the earth color, thinking it would look closer to tan, but it actually looks more like the mid brown in the pictures. It's fine, because it actually looks very nice, hiding dirt and scuffs more. Overall, I am glad I purchased these, and I don't know why I waited so long to get mid high boots. I give these boots 4 1/2 stars; I highly recommend them, and would purchase them again.

Pros:
- Light weight
- Very comfortable
- Ideal for any kind of walking or trails
- Keeps my feet cool and dry
- No break in period

Cons:
- Need to go up a 1/2 size, just be aware
- Soles could be thicker, due to feeling rocks more on the balls of feet

Great shoes for a great price!

Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2016

After checking out online reviews on youtube, I decided to buy this shoes. I am a beginning hiker and I needed something light, comfortable and reliable. These shoes fit the bill perfectly. Once your feet slip inside these boots, they will feel right at home, and will want to stay there all day long. I walked a fair distance with these the first time out, and I am thoroughly happy with them. They claim to be waterproof, well I have not gotten them wet yet, but I honestly don't think any boot is completely waterproof, they all lose their waterproofing eventually. Thankfully, these are ventilated, so they should dry out fast. They appear to be well constructed and rugged in style and function. The soles are really grippy, which will be a real plus when I am climbing rocky, rooty trails in the future. I got my money's worth. Speaking of money, I got these for a great price. My local shoe seller had these for about $40 more than what I paid on Amazon, and because I have Amazon Prime, shipping was free. Really happy.

Toller Schuh zum Gehen im Gelände

Reviewed in Germany on May 8, 2016

Verified Purchase

Ich trage diesen Schuh beim 3D Bogenschießen im Gelände. Er gibt mir sehr guten Seitenhalt. Die Sohle hat auch sehr guten Grip im rutschigen bzw. schlammigen Gelände. Das Obermaterial lässt keine Nässe durch. Und auch wenn es warm ist, schwitze ich nicht so schnell im Schuh, da er atmungsaktiv ist. Ich trage den Schuh schon längere Zeit und er hält aber noch recht gut - sehr strapazfähig.

Chaussures de marche TT (tout terrain et tout temps)

Reviewed in France on December 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

Pour moi qui emprunte des chemins caillouteux, avec de forts dénivelés, la sécurité prime sur le confort.
Sécurité : chevilles protégées par des tiges à bonne hauteur, bon amorti des chocs et bonnes semelles antiglisse...
Confort :
- en moins : 450 grammes à chaque pied (taille 43), présence de tiges (désavantage), léger échauffement à la plante des pieds (semelle à revoir probablement) ;
- en plus : protection pluie, légèreté (relative pour ce genre de produit)...
Qualité : semelles inusables ; (pour l'instant) intérieur et extérieur bien préservés.

Super Wanderschuh - genau das, was ich gesucht habe!

Reviewed in Germany on March 22, 2012

Verified Purchase

Nach dem Ausprobieren verschiedener anderer Wanderschuhe bin ich beim MOAB MID gelandet, da ich einen leichten Wanderschuh für einfachere Wanderungen oder auch mal zum Shoppen gesucht habe. Das ist ja bei Schuhen mit den Größen generell so ein Problem: Daß die Merrell-Schuhe kleiner ausfallen, war mir aufgrund von diversen Rezensionen bekannt. Da ich normalerweise z.B. bei Rieker-Schuhen Größe 41 trage, hab ich gleich Größe 43 bestellt - immer noch zu klein. Letztendlich bin ich dann bei Größe 43,5 gelandet. Der Hammer war, daß ich zunächst ein ungleiches Paar erhalten habe, der linke Schuh war Größe 41, der rechte Schuh war in Größe 43,5. Sicher ein Fehler des Herstellers, ich hab die an amazon zurückgeschickt und gleich ein neues Paar bestellt (es gab Gott sei Dank noch welche, danke an amazon, daß es so fix ging), die dann in Ordnung waren. Die Größe 43,5 paßt mir jetzt, hab ich allerdings bisher noch nie gehabt und werde es sicher - außer bei Merrell - nie mehr brauchen. Zum Schuh selbst: Er macht einen sehr wertigen und soliden Eindruck und ist sauber verarbeitet. Ich bin reingeschlüpft und hab mich darin wie bei keinem der bisher getesteten Schuhewohlgefühlt. Der Fuß hat genügend Platz und dennoch durch das eingearbeitete Fußbett einen guten Halt. Das Laufen mit dem Schuh ist sehr angenehm, nichts drückt oder kneift. Die Vibram-Sohle ist recht griffig und hält sicher auch was aus. Ich bin mir sicher, mit dem MOAB einen sehr guten Kauf gemacht habe - und das zu einem unschlagbaren Preis!! - der mir sicher viel Freude machen wird.
