FAQs
Are the Merrell Moab Speed 2 shoes waterproof?
No, the Merrell Moab Speed 2 hiking shoes are designed for breathability and are not waterproof. They are suitable for dry to moderately wet conditions. For full waterproofing, Merrell offers specific waterproof models.
How much foam is in the midsole?

What type of outsole do these shoes have?
These shoes are equipped with a Vibram TC5+ outsole, specially formulated for Merrell and featuring an all-new design with enhanced traction lugs for superior grip.
Can I use these shoes for running?
While they incorporate features from trail running shoes for breathability and a secure fit, they are primarily designed as hiking shoes. For dedicated trail running, Merrell offers specialized trail running footwear.
How do I clean the beige colourway?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What does Cleansport NXT™ odour control do?
Cleansport NXT™ is a technology that helps to naturally control odour within the footwear, keeping them fresher for longer.
Is there any protection against rocks on the trail?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. If discomfort persists, the size may not be correct. Consider trying a half-size larger or checking the fit against the size guide.
Traction is reduced on slippery surfaces.
Clean the Vibram TC5+ outsole of any embedded mud or debris. The lug pattern is designed for grip, but blockages can reduce effectiveness. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn.
Feet feel wet or damp after hiking.
While breathable, these shoes are not waterproof. For wet conditions, consider waterproof hiking boots. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Allow shoes to dry completely between uses.
Odour persists after use.
Ensure the shoes are thoroughly dried after each wear. Use a dedicated shoe deodorizer spray or powder. The Cleansport NXT™ treatment helps, but proper drying is crucial.
