Seem well made but my left one leaked after a few wears. Very disappointed in that. Go changed them without drama for another type of merrels with Gortex lining. Didn't realise these didn't have that.

Both shoes developed squeaks from the sole within a couple of months of mild use, right shoe split within 6 months. Dangerously slippy in the slightest wet conditions. Uncomfortable to walk in!

I’ve had many pairs of these excellent walking shoes which I use as my everyday shoes. Comfortable, hardwearing and, if you buy them when on offer, good value for money.

I'm used to wearing Merrell water pro trainers which no longer seem to be available, so I decided to stay with the brand when purchasing these.
Given the quality of these, I have to say they're a good purchase, if somewhat firmer than I would have hoped for. They are just a little less forgiving on the feet than my previous ones. However, as a walking shoe, they're excellent.

Let water in from day 1, the left shoe worse than right, hinting at the poor quality early on, then they steadily fell to bits until I gave up on them. Got a full refund under warranty at 10 months.

Good grip and very comfortable.

well made and good value. The third pair for me.

Tha comfort can't be beaten unfortunately they don't last very long less than 6 months wearing them and both shoes have splits

Excellent product. Very comfy, well made.

I had high hopes for what I believed was a high quality brand.
Within days I realised these were dangerous on wet pavements, within 7 months like other reviewers splitting around small toe area.

Wore these on the 4 day hike up machu pichu with no problems, come back home worn in the wet & they kept my feet dry but really cold when wet. Now use for summer days and dry winter days.

Bought these Merrell Moab 2 shoes a few weeks ago and find them to be comfortable, waterproof and not slippy in the rain, I am a fell walker and its Wet in the Lake District, vibram soles doing well.

I wore these shoes to commute to work. They’ve had no serious outdoor use other than this. BOTH shoes have split at the little toe after 2 months leaving gaping holes. Buy a £30 pair of Karrimor.

All day in a heavy rain and these shoes did not get wet. I am positively surprised

I got these shoes as a goodwill upgrade after I was sent the wrong shoes to what I originally ordered. The shoes are very comfortable, however not waterproof as I recently found out. Be aware of this.

They are ok on soft terrain, but when cought in bit of a rain, whole shoes and feet got all soaking wet, therefore not very waterproof. When walking on tarmac feel like walking in high heels too.

Really really comfortable straight out of the box but 3 huge issues. 1) As others have said, slippery when wet. 2) Waterproofing not great - had wet feet after walking though damp dewy grass. 3) not built to last. Had less than a year and rubber has split in places and the fabric has torn around toe joints. very disappointed. my last pair of £30 karrimors faired better.

As others before have mentioned, these shoes are really comfortable from straight out the box and are a good broad fitting shoe which I like however they are lethal in wet conditions (on any smooth surface like wet pavement or rocks), i have been on my backside twice already. Also the right shoe has now developed a loud creeking noise when walking. Only had them two months. Great in dry conditions (bought as a waterproof shoe) but not much use otherwise.

Probably about my 6th pair of Merrells and I have seen the quality diminish over the period. They are still comfortable but leak due to splitting on each shoe around the rubber band area. These ones are just over a year old whereas previous ones lasted a bit longer. Will need to replace them now, but not sure what with. Will have to do some research before spending another £103.

So i waited a while before i did this review and finally say am some what disappointed...

I usually buy Merrell's because they are good quality and offer a wider fitting which is great and comfy. My previous Merrell's were Chameleon Wrap Slam 2 shoes that i wore for years and no issues in terms of ware and tare and i took these on a lot of rough terrain hikes. But last year i thought is was time for a change and after looking at a lot of good reviews i thought i would try the Moab 2 GTX shoe.

First impressions great comfy shoe all round! I wore this daily and tried it on a few hikes but nothing to major and in a light few showers my feet were dry. However after about 6 months the protective toe area has started to tare on the right shoe either side. The material which is rubber has become really soft and split, which am really surprised at due to the fact my Slams have lasted longer and still in good nik and have been through a lot more!

So am wondering now if the Mid boot Moab 2 GTX will come to the same fate as i purchased a pair thinking that these ones were good after having them 2 months in.

So i gave it a 3 star due to comfort, wider fitting and with standard light showers. But lost 2 stars due to the durability and quality of the material.

So if you decide to purchase a pair just to cautious that if you decide to take these on advance hikes, rocky terrain etc the durability of these shoes may not last.
