Merrell Moab 3 Hiking Shoe - Men's

Avid hiker. I’ve walked many hundreds of miles over many years, and all of them in Merrell’s. For me, there isn’t a better shoe. Period.

I got these for 100 mile hike I have planned in a couple of months. I wanted to be sure they were broken in and comfy before the trek. I found them to be comfortable from day one!

I bought my first Moab 3's just after Covid began. I was without a car in the city, and walked everywhere -- I suffer from hallux valgus and I sometimes feel a little unbalanced, but when I put these shoes on, my life changed! The rock solid stability of these shoes gave me the confidence to face longer and longer walks! Fortunately the hiking-sneaker look fits in with what I wear normally. I wear them every day for everything. My feet are rendered a little wide because of the hallux valgus, but the regular width shoes fit me perfectly without any tightness! Thank you, Merrell! Very happy camper!

Loved going back to Merrel. Took me completely up and down the rock of Gibraltar. 2 days break in. Perfect fit.

I’ve been a huge fan of the Moab line since the beginning. The Moab 1 and 2 fit me like a glove and were my go to hiking and outdoor shoes for years. Sadly, my long and loyal relationship with this shoe has come to an end with the Moab 3. Like many other 1 star reviewers have pointed out, the biggest problem is the redesigned toe box. Somehow Merrell took a shoe that fit beautifully and turned it into something that feels cramped, awkward, and just plain wrong. After enough people complained, Merrell added the helpful little note that the shoe “runs small” and suggested ordering a half size up. So I followed their advice. I wear an 11, ordered an 11.5, and the result was still terrible. The shoe doesn’t fit right, doesn’t feel right, and honestly feels like it was designed by someone who has only heard about feet in theory. I genuinely do not understand why brands feel the need to “innovate” a product that already works. Not every classic needs a redesign. Sometimes a great shoe is a great shoe. This feels less like improvement and more like a marketing meeting got out of hand. In a time when companies keep ruining tried and true products in the name of innovation, it’s especially disappointing to see Merrell do the same. The original Moab earned trust through consistency, comfort, and reliability. The Moab 3 tosses a lot of that aside. Merrell, please bring back the Moab 2.

I wore these everyday of a weeklong trip, hiking all different terrains. They were comfortable right out of the box, had good traction.

Love the toe space and the ankle support but the insole is just not good. Worn 2x and 15 miles and the insole was paper thin. Great shoe just needs different insoles

Well made and constructed shoe with great styling and comfort. I wear lots of Merrels........they offer great support.
