FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® is designed with a standard fit. While the materials offer some flexibility, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. It's recommended to try them on or check customer reviews regarding fit for wider feet.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX® membrane?

To clean the GORE-TEX® membrane, gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, which can impede breathability and waterproofing. Always air dry.

What is the main difference between the Moab Speed 2 and previous Moab models?

The Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® incorporates new athletic hiking innovations, including improved traction with Vibram® TC5+ rubber, a 30% increase in underfoot foam for enhanced comfort, and a design influenced by trail running shoes for better breathability and performance.

Can these shoes be used for running?

While influenced by trail running design for breathability and responsiveness, these are primarily hiking shoes. They are designed for moderate trail use and may not provide the specialized support or cushioning needed for dedicated running.

What is the warranty period for Merrell shoes?

Merrell typically offers a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Specific warranty details can be found on the official Merrell website or by contacting their customer service.

How do I ensure the best fit?

It is recommended to try on the shoes towards the end of the day when feet are slightly swollen. Wear the type of socks you typically use for hiking. Ensure there is about a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe, and that the heel does not slip excessively.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the EVA foam footbed is removable, allowing for the insertion of custom orthotics if needed.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX®

Ensure the shoe is properly sealed at the ankle and that no debris has compromised the membrane. Check if the socks are also waterproof. Allow shoes to dry completely before next use.

Reduced traction on surfaces

Clean the Vibram® outsole thoroughly to remove embedded mud or debris. Inspect the tread lugs for wear and tear. Ensure you are on terrain suitable for the shoe's moderate trail rating.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes with shorter walks before attempting long hikes. Adjust lacing for a more secure or relaxed fit. Check for any internal stitching or seams causing irritation.

Odor inside the shoe

Utilize the Cleansport NXT™ natural odor control by airing the shoes out after use. Consider using anti-odor sprays or inserts if the issue persists. Wash insoles if removable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and breathability with GORE-TEX®.
  • Superior traction on diverse surfaces thanks to Vibram® TC5+ and specialized lugs.
  • Enhanced comfort and support from increased underfoot foam and FloatPro™ midsole.
  • Durable construction with protective toe and heel caps.
  • Versatile design suitable for hiking and casual wear.

Cons

  • The fit may not be ideal for all foot shapes.
  • While durable, the advanced materials might require specific care.
  • Primarily designed for moderate trails, may not be sufficient for extreme technical terrain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for hiking and outdoor multi-sport activities. They are also suitable for casual wear. The footwear is compatible with standard hiking socks.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Clean the upper using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Waterproofing Maintenance: For GORE-TEX® footwear, avoid using fabric conditioners or bleach, as these can compromise the membrane's performance. Periodically clean the shoe to maintain its waterproof and breathable qualities.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to preserve the materials.
