FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday casual wear?
While comfortable and durable, the Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® BL 1TRL is optimized for technical trails. For purely casual wear, you might find other shoe styles more suitable.
How do I know if these shoes are the right size?
Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear for hiking. There should be about a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Ensure they are snug around the heel and midfoot without being restrictive.
How long does the GORE-TEX® waterproofing last?
The GORE-TEX® membrane is designed for durability. With proper care and maintenance, the waterproofing can last for the practical lifespan of the shoe.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and waterproof membrane. Hand wash with mild soap and water as described in the care instructions.
What is the weight of the Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® BL 1TRL?
The weight is approximately 350 grams per shoe (for a size EU 44.5).
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The shoe offers a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on or consult sizing guides for potential width options or alternative models.
How does the cleansport NXT™ odour control work?
Cleansport NXT™ is a probiotic-based technology that uses natural enzymes to break down odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep the footwear fresh.
Troubleshooting
Water ingress despite GORE-TEX®
Ensure laces are tightened properly and the tongue is positioned correctly. Check for any visible damage to the shoe or membrane. Prolonged submersion may exceed the GORE-TEX®'s capabilities.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the Vibram® outsole thoroughly to remove mud, debris, or wear. Check for significant wear patterns on the tread.
Odour persists after cleaning
While cleansport NXT™ helps control odor, intense use may require additional measures. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dried after each use. Consider using a shoe deodorizer or airing them out in sunlight (briefly).
Discomfort or hot spots
Ensure correct sizing and adequate sock thickness. Try adjusting the lacing pattern. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes come ready to wear. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably by adjusting the laces. For optimal performance, lace them evenly, paying attention to pressure points.
Compatibility: Designed for outdoor activities, including hiking, trail running, and general outdoor exploration. They are compatible with standard hiking socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a dry brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never 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 excessive abrasion. Periodically check and clean the exterior to maintain its performance.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
