Merrell Moab Speed 2 - Hiking Shoes - 7.5 UK - Beige

The product description does not specify width options. It's recommended to try them on in person or check for width-specific sizing information from the retailer if available. The standard fit is designed for average foot widths.

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure and not lift excessively when walking.

While the GORE-TEX offers waterproofing, the Vibram TC5+ outsole is designed for general outdoor traction. It is not optimized for deep snow or icy surfaces. For such conditions, specialized winter footwear is recommended.

It means that no animal products or by-products were used in the manufacturing of the shoe.

It's best to clean off loose dirt and mud after each significant use. A more thorough cleaning can be done as needed, typically when the shoes are visibly dirty or after hiking in wet, muddy conditions.

Merrell uses recycled materials that meet their durability and performance standards. The nylon ripstop and TPU upper, along with the Vibram outsole, are designed for robust trail use.

Ensure laces are properly tied to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any damage to the shoe's exterior or seams. If water is persistent, the waterproof membrane may be compromised.

Clean the Vibram outsole lugs of mud, dirt, or debris. For extremely slick surfaces (e.g., wet rock or ice), consider specialized footwear, as even aggressive treads have limitations.

Ensure the shoes fit correctly – not too tight or too loose. Break them in gradually on shorter walks before attempting long hikes. Consider using moisture-wicking socks and ensuring the footbed is properly positioned.

Remove the footbed and allow both the shoe and footbed to air out completely after each use. Washing the removable footbed separately may help. Ensure the Cleansport NXT™ treatment is still effective; it naturally reduces odor over time.
