I bought the Moab boot before we went to the Tetons. I'm not a hiker, but I had Achilles surgery in late November and still have weakness and now supinate on that foot. The Moab was excellent! It supported my ankle just enough and still was a lightweight and extremely comfortable shoe. It feels like they were made for my feet, they fit so well. I wore them the first day all day walking in Yellowstone, they needed no breakin at all. My feet were never sore and they didn't get tired like they did in all the different 'walking' shoes I've tried before. I'm wearing them now to work every day, I just can't get over how great a shoe they are! I did buy a 1/2 size larger and they were a perfect fit.

Could you make this book with a more feminine color option?

Great hiking shoe. Very comfortable and good support for foot and ankle. Especially like the fact they are so light weight. Makes hiking more enjoyable.

I have summer running shoes that give me great support and shock absorbency. (Nike track shoes, Saucony and Aesis). But you can't wear them in the winter because water goes thru the mesh and you have wet feet and they do not have good traction on winter surfaces. I need waterproof, good traction, good support and shock absorbency. I have arthritis/neuropathy & fibromyalgia and walking/hiking is very important to keep me healthy. I do not want to be in pain. I have been looking for months for something to wear. I walk dog daily for 2 miles and I go on longer hikes on weekends in the mountains. I was very excited when I started reading about Merrell hiking shoes and boots. I wanted the Chameleon hiking boots, but they were not available in the stores I visited. So tried on the Moab hiking boots for $120. This is alot of money to me, but I want something that works ! They cradled my arch and my whole foot felt happy in the store.! Again, in the house they felt great and I was happy that this problem is solved- or so I thought. Today I walked 2 miles in them at a park. My foot was moving inside the shoe - back and forth and back and forth. I sat on the ground and tightened them. My foot started to sweat, I think and its 30 degrees out. It was moving back and forth and my feet started to burn very badly. Pain started going up my right leg where I have neuropathy. My knees and hips started to hurt. The whole walk was painful. Could not wait to get home and take them off. I bought sock liners, and in a few days when I recover, I will try again with heavier socks and sock liners. I am very disappointed and in pain as I sit here writing this and I dread tomorrow when I am afraid I will get even worse pain in knees, calves and feet from all the rubbing and all the trying to correct while walking. Maybe a young person that doesn't have things wrong with them - in perfect condition, could wear these. I do not know where to turn and I hope someone from Merrell will contact me and help me. I will stick with Merrell until I get ones that work, just help me out if you can. thanks Linda, an aging baby-boomer that wants to run around in the woods with my dog !!

I bought these boots last spring because I singed up to go on a local 17 mile hike in the woods. Everyone that has done the hike told me to get good shoes. I bought these and wore them for 8 weeks before the hike to break them in and was very please with them during the hike. My feet fit in them as I expected. After 17 miles it only showed signs small of any hot spot beginning to develop. I have continued to wear them out over the winder and know I am back to buy a new pair for the hike coming up this June. I would recommend them to anyone.
