FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® generally offers a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, consider trying them on with your usual hiking socks to assess comfort, or look for wider fit options if available from the brand.

How long does the GORE-TEX® waterproofing last?

The GORE-TEX® membrane is designed for long-lasting waterproof performance. Proper care and maintenance will help preserve its effectiveness over the lifespan of the shoe.

Can I machine wash these hiking shoes?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and waterproofing membranes. Hand-wash with mild soap and water as per the care instructions.

What is the primary benefit of the Vibram® TC5+ outsole?

The Vibram® TC5+ outsole, specially formulated for Merrell, provides exceptional grip and durability on a variety of surfaces, featuring an optimized lug pattern for enhanced traction.

How does the increased foam underfoot improve comfort?

The 30% increase in foam underfoot provides enhanced cushioning, shock absorption, and rebound, leading to greater comfort during prolonged hikes and reducing foot fatigue.

Are these shoes good for all seasons?

The GORE-TEX® waterproofing makes them suitable for wet conditions in spring, autumn, and mild winter weather. For extreme cold, consider a more insulated hiking boot.

What is the purpose of the rock plate?

The full-length rock plate protects the sole of your foot from sharp rocks, roots, and other trail debris, allowing you to tread confidently on uneven terrain.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight during initial wear

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to naturally conform to your feet. Adjust lacing to find a comfortable tension, avoiding over-tightening.

Water seeping through despite GORE-TEX®

Ensure laces and tongue are properly secured to prevent water entry from the top. Check for any visible damage to the GORE-TEX® membrane or seams. If damage is found, contact customer support.

Reduced traction on slippery surfaces

Clean the outsole treads of mud or debris, as this can significantly impact grip. Ensure the footwear is appropriate for the specific surface conditions you are encountering.

Feet feeling warm or sweaty

While GORE-TEX® offers breathability, very warm conditions can still lead to moisture buildup. Wear moisture-wicking socks and ensure laces are not tied too tightly to allow for maximum airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are designed for immediate use upon purchase. No specific setup is required beyond ensuring the correct fit. Adjust the lacing for a secure and comfortable feel before your first outing.

Compatibility: Suitable for hiking, trail running, and casual outdoor activities. They have also been noted for effectiveness on golf courses.

Care Instructions:

Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and waterproofing.
Waterproofing Maintenance: The GORE-TEX® membrane is durable, but avoid exposing the shoes to excessive heat or solvents which can degrade its performance. Periodically check the shoe's condition for any damage to the membrane or seals.
