Merrell Moab Speed 2

Eternal tourist icon - Merrell Moab

The Merrell Moab (Mother Of All Boots) has deservedly earned its status as the best-selling hiking boot in the world. It's not just a shoe, it's synonymous with reliability, comfort and performance from the first step. While the Moab is primarily designed for the outdoors, its classic, durable design is also a great fit for the urban streetwear that is currently loving the hike/gorpcore style. If you're looking for a shoe that won't betray you on the mountain trail while keeping you in the game in the city, you've found it. The Moab is renowned for fitting like a glove right out of the box, no lengthy break-in required. Key to its performance is the Vibram® TC5+ outsole, which provides unmatched traction and grip on wet and dry surfaces. Added to this is Merrell Air Cushion, a special air cushion in the heel that absorbs shock, increases stability and adds that proverbial all-day comfort.

The upper combines leather/suede and mesh for ideal breathability and durability; a version with a GORE-TEX® membrane for 100% waterproofing is often available. The Moab is designed for hikers, adventurers and urban nomads who demand maximum support and durability without compromise. This shoe is a styling must-have for current trends: pair it with loose cargo pants, a fleece sweatshirt and a technical jacket for a gorpcore look. In the city, it also goes well with wider jeans and an oversized T-shirt to create a utilitarian contrast.
