The well-known Moab line of this brand has a large number of models, among which we highlight Moab 2 Vent, Merrell Moab Adventure Lace Waterproof and Moab Goretex. Of the Hiking shoes that we are going to talk about in this file we have to highlight mainly its impermeability through the Goretex membrane, and its optimum durability and grip with the 5 mm Vibram Megatrip sole. It thus becomes a shoe with good and updated performance to go on an adventure in the mountains or for long-distance excursions in the city. They can also be used directly for trail running.

As usual in this brand, we are facing a shoe that protects the foot in all aspects. Both in mobility with the use of a traditional lacing system, and in waterproofing, using Goretex technology, which consists of a membrane that does not allow water or moisture to pass into the shoe, providing comfort and protection through this fabric, which is one of the most recognized for dealing with the rain. Regarding safety, we have the Vibram sole, also one of the best on the market, capable of offering a very secure grip regardless of the surface on which we decide to walk, it is a rubber sole capable of ensuring excellent results over a long period of time.

The upper of this trekking shoe is made of a combination of mesh with thermo sealed with reinforcement function. Classic and resistant materials that bring durability and quality to this shoe. In addition, an extra mesh lining has been added for comfort and breathability, which together with the contoured EVA rubber insole that integrates FIT ECO technology, are able to combat odor in your feet.

Midsole and outsole

A lightweight EVA midsole, typical of the Moab line of shoes, has been used for stability and comfort. On the outside the Vibram outsole with a very characteristic multidirectional tread pattern, will allow you the necessary traction for the most difficult terrain.

What we have to emphasize of this model is its versatility in the first place, since we can use them comfortably for races in the mountains or simply enjoy a walk in these environments that we like so much. It has a perfect grip, capable of adapting to all surfaces. Another aspect that draws attention is the improvement of its aesthetics compared to other models of the Moab line.
