Customer Reviews Merrell Moab 3 Mid GTX®

Amazingly comfortable from day one, stayed on snow all day and kept nice and warm.

Lifelong wearer of Chameleons and thought I would give these a try. Comfortable out of the box, true to size and look good, but every step I take is accompanied by a noticeable "Thwup" sound coming from the front of the left shoe. The sound seems to come from the fabric at the top of the toe box springing back into shape after being bent when taking a step. I disproved the theory if the sound coming from the insoles by powdering, and then replacing them with a gel insole, but the sound remains. If you bend the shoe by hand, you can hear it from the toe box. My hope is that it will go away after time, but another review I saw said that they still got the sound after a couple of months of wear. It may be okay on the trail, but in a store I announce I am coming to anyone in the area and it's embarrassing.

Great boots, very light and comfy..Merrells are all I wear. Ive got different styles and all are just as comfortable

Took these out for a bit . When the mud dries up I am going to put some miles on these . Enjoyed them so far cant wait to see how they are on a longer adventure

These are my daily work wear shoes in a fencing business.

these boots you can wear right out of box. Most comfortable hiking boots I have had. Week after they arrived went on a hike and they felt like I had been wearing them for years

I bought them about 9 months ago for work at the local park.Just last week the side of the shoe split wide open..Dont know what happened but wont buy another pair for work I guess

Probably the most comfortable pair of boots I ever wore and I've worn alot of boots in my day

I own several Merrell products and Im always happy with the value and quality. However these shoes seem to be an exception. I broke them in for a few weeks then took them on a several day long hiking trip. After the trip i had the WORST blisters I have ever had. Ive been hiking my whole life with many different boots and Ive never experienced anything like this. I sadly would not recommend these boots for longer hikes. They seemed comfy enough for daily use but I would not rely on these for a hike again.

I'm no stranger to the Moab family of boots/shoes, and after a month in these I've found that they're good for trails, the office and in the snow. To each their own, but I prefer the GORE-TEX sets because they last a little longer for in my hands with regular use and in soggy/wet conditions (but will also stand up to the southwest heat very well). With recent snow in the mid-west I was able to give them a 10-mile test where they proved how comfortable they are: dry, warm and keeps traction. These Moab 3 Mid's have held up to the same expectations I've had of other shoes, and I'd recommend to anyone.

I have used the Merrell brand for many year. I have climbed all of the Co14ers and Mt. Kilimanjaro with these boots. The Moab boot is a well made boot for all types of trails. You cannot go wrong with this brand or boot.

Too low at the ankle. The boys rubbed my ankle bone and I felt the arch was too hard. Not super comfortable like keen.. I wish they were because of the gortex. But I rather have comfort than gortex.

I bought these boots for my husband. He says they are comfortable but NOT waterproof. Disappointing since the waterproof feature was the main reason we got them

I want to love these, but I don't. They are super hard compared to my Keens from last season. Hoping they will break in over time, but my Keens were never this hard at the get go and are just as supportive.

Unfortunately it seems like all of cushion and cloud like feeling of the merrel 2 has been removed. Hopefully the tread will last longer than the 2s. I had 126 miles of north east hiking and lost large chunks of the souls on the 2. The 3 seem like they have good grip, and have been waterproof, but only have 20 miles on them.

This is my 3rd paid of Merrell mid-hiking boots. I currently have 2 pair of Moab 2 mid boots, waterproof and non-waterproof, and I alternate wearing them depending on the weather and time of year. I purchased the Merrell Moab 3 Mid Gor-Tex for better waterproofing. While the construction of the boot is excellent, I find that the boot length is slightly smaller than the Moab 2. The bigger issue I have found is the comfort of this boot. My other Merrells were comfortable out of the box. I can and do wear them all day with any issues, not so with the Moab 3. I have been breaking them in over the past few weeks and they are still somewhat uncomfortable. The Moab 3 has a firm foot bed and the liner material is hard and uncomfortable which I think is the issue. I've compared the 2 liners and found that the liners in the Moab 2 provide more cushioning than the Moab 3 liners. I think Merrell boots are an excellent product in general, I am somewhat disappointed with the Moab 3.

Bought these last year, but just started wearing them. Quite comfortable right from the get go, however after only 2 weeks of wear one of the material eyelets broke. Now just waiting for the rest of them to break or tear. I will not be buying Merrell footwear with these type of eyelets ever again. I do not recommend these to other consumers.

They got wet in wet grass even though I have the gortex version.

If you like wet feet for the price then this a boot for you. I absolutely hate having wet feet and 6 months of ownership and these boots have leaked constantly. I don't recommend this boot if you want dry feet. Walking in light rain today and my feet were cold and soaked. I'll be looking elsewhere for waterproof boots next time. This is my second pair of Moab's, the first were great, can't say the same about these.

I've been wearing these for 2 months. They feel terrific for the first two to three miles of a hike. Then the bottoms of my feet start to hurt really bad, as I can feel every pebble and twig under foot! I did 6 miles in the woods Saturday and my feet still hurt on Monday. I'm definitely not out of shape, as I walk 5 miles after work most days. Not a big woman but I have a wide foot with a high instep so I wear a 9.5 wide men's. It feels as if there is nothing between my foot and the ground. They're awful.

I got these this past summer worn them maybe a couple of times. The heel fell apart. Terrible shoes I paid 175 for these! I didn't even wear them in the woods. Never again

I recently bought a pair of Merrell shoes recently and found the sizing to be off; they feel quite narrow. Additionally, after wearing them just once, I observed small pieces chipping off from the bottom. It almost seems like they've been around for a while, and I'm questioning the material quality.
