MerrellMen's Moab Adventure MOC Hiking Shoe

I purchased these approximately nine months ago on November 3, 2023. I got them to just have a pair of quick slip on shoes for walking our dog twice a day. I love Merrell hiking shoes and have two pairs of the lace up Moab, and have had plenty Merrell hiking shoes in the past. It is pretty much the only hiking shoe I wear, and Merrell is the only shoe that I have found that I could order on line, and it fits perfect every time. I also have two pairs of the Merrell Jungle Moc slip on shoes, but they have a different type sole. This Moab Moc slip on hiking shoe has the exact type sole of my other regular lace up Moab shoes', and I love it, it is perfect! Same great traction and sole durability as my lace up Moab shoes.What started out as just wearing them to walk the dog, has turned into my every day, all day shoe! I love the fit, comfort, support, and ease of just slipping them on and off. I have literally worn them almost every day and probably put at least 3-4 or more miles a day on these shoes, although most of it is casually walking the dog, and walking in general. Check out the pics, they have held up very well. Also, I just wipe them down when they get a little dirty and and they're just fine.I love the look and style, they go much better with casual dress up jeans and dockers, they look much better than my lace up moab shoes. With the exception of some formal events I have had to attend, and of course some winter snow boot, and cowboy boot days, these shoes have been my daily go to foot wear. If hiking shoes have feelings, I'm sure my lace-ups are feeling both a little dusty and dejected lol. I definitely recommend these shoes, and I will definitely be buying another pair when the time comes to do so.

Good looking shoe. Great construction and material. These runs a little big. I wear size 12 in most shoes. In this p probably a size 11 or 11 1/2. Easy to walk in, comfortable, stable and gripping tread. No complaints. I have never had a poor pair of shoes from this manufacturer. (Merrell)

Lost track of how many pair of these I have bought over the years, they fit good, and are comfy, and hold up good.

If I'm hiking without a backpack, such as a Day hike, then this is my hiking shoe. I'd give it five stars except it's not great on wet rocks, where you need to be careful about slipping. It is great on wet dirt and mud because the thick tread does grip. Overall very satisfied.

Very good shoes, highly recommended !

On my third pair and will probably buy them again as long as they are available. I have arch support issues, and these shoes have made it almost non-existent. Being slip on and coming in wide as well is a must for me. They are a great light duty shoe. I am required to wear a leather shoe at work and these shoes fit the bill for looks comfort and wear. I'm on my feet a lot and have gone about 16-18 months before needing new ones, as they may still look serviceable, but they do lose their support over time. I use a shoehorn to put on because the heal area will break down. A slip on heal is really the only thing that would make these shoes better. Not an issue for me, but just a note that these shoes are not waterproof. If you walk in water, your feet will get wet.

[Update] Everything below the line I wrote before I actually wore them for 3 (very painful) days walking around Japan. In retrospect, they’re only comfortable for casual wear. Their water resistance is a liability because they’re not breathable at all - even with wool blend socks my feet were always wet. And because they’re slip-ons they move around all the time, which leads to rubbing and blisters.As a result I now only wear these in the winter when I’m heading to the store or need to step outside for a few minutes.———-Here’s why I researched a ton and bought these shoes: I’m taking a trip for 2 weeks that will require a ton of walking around cities, and some light hiking. The trip is to a foreign country, so I’d rather take a single pair of shoes. Also, that country is Japan, where they take their shoes off a lot. So, what I needed was a pair of shoes that was comfortable enough for a lot of city walking, but also could be used for hiking, and that could easily be slipped on/off.Due to their popularity, I naturally landed with Merrell’s Jungle Mocs. Problem was, they felt like oversized clown shoes. And I tried the half size down but my toe hit the front of the shoe.So I tried these instead. SO MUCH BETTER. They feel nice and snug without being too small. They feel like a pair of sneakers and are really nice to walk in. The insoles are removable too, so I have the option of going with a pair of Super Feet insoles (which I usually need), but I may just stick with how they are out of the box because they’re that comfortable.The only think that these don’t have that Jungle Mocs do have is water resistance. But honestly, the fabric on these seems like it has some resistance. And in the end I’d rather have breathability in shoes like this anyway.UPDATE: I just wore these for half an hour in the rain to clear the wet slush off of my driveway after a snow/ice/wintry mix storm. Not only did I not slip, but my feet stayed warm and dry. To be fair though I was wearing longer pants that covered my ankles.They don’t claim to be “waterproof,” but they’re a hell of a lot better than a pair of sneakers at keeping moisture out. I’d say they’re great all weather travel & walking commuter shoes. So glad I bought them for my 2 week trip to Japan.And they’re getting even more comfortable, especially in the heel area, after a little break in period. When they were new I felt that the forward heel ridge was a little too far back, but now it feels very natural.

Good purchase for what's out there since many other companies stopped making excellent supportive & attractive looking slip ons. Excellent feel right out of the box! The Wide width is actually spacious unlike the Jungle Moc wide I bought at the same time 🤔 It's build has decent arch support without the insert, though sadly the insert itself is pretty thin with just a bit more arch support which I really need. Walking in them feels kinda duck like when stepping & hitting pavement, flopping sounds 😆 Putting a good insert would make these a $200 plus shoe. I think I'll love these & hope the quality last🤞🏻
