Disappointed

We bought the Moab Speed 2 Mid GORE-TEX® specifically for our Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) trip because we expected good waterproof protection for hiking in changing mountain weather. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the waterproof performance. During the trip, water got into the boots and my husband's feet became wet, which was especially frustrating because waterproofing was one of the main reasons we chose the GORE-TEX® version. My husband already owns the regular Moab Speed 2 and really likes them, so we trusted the Moab Speed 2 line and decided to buy the Mid GORE-TEX® version for TMB. We expected the same comfort and quality with the added benefit of reliable waterproof protection. Sadly, that was not our experience. For a hiking boot marketed with GORE-TEX®, we expected much better water resistance. Very disappointing, especially for a long-distance mountain trek like the TMB.

Not Waterproof

This is the 3rd pair of Moab speed shoes. The first pair was not waterproof. Second pair not waterproof. So I spent the extra money for Gore-tex and first walk in the rain with my umbrella I had to wring the water out of my socks. Sad part is the shoes are incredibly comfortable just not waterproof.

Just Ok

I bought these to replace my old Moab Speed 2. These feel a lot more loose and less secure on my feet

Weightless

I’ve stuck with Moab 2s and now 3s for years. I currently have the waterproof, non-waterproof, and Gore-Tex, all mid. The waterproof and Gore-Tex are great buy when they go on sale. I noticed the speed 2 gore-Tex were on sale and decided to give them a try.. and they feel great. I get wide boots and these seem less restrictive than the Moab 3 wide. You can tell they’re not made to be as rugged as the Moab 3, but they are a comfortably feather weight boot that keeps your feet dry and cool.

Great Shoe

Good sneakers and last longer then most my 1st choice

Runs Larger

I really wanted to keep this after getting a great deal on them, but the sizing is off. They were about a 1/2 size too large.

Can't Miss

The boots were comfortable right out of the box. I've done two five mile hikes and they performed excellent.

Not Great On Incline Or Rocky

Way too much space in the heel. Great feeling while walking on a flat surface but with any incline it causes a ton of blisters. This is my 3rd pair of merrells and I’ve worn all the rest till failure and all have been amazing besides this boot.

Solid Hiking Shoes

Bought these for a hiking trip to North Cascades National Park and Glacier National park. From regular trail, through mud and snow, these shoes were comfortable. Great grip and my feet staued dry the whole time.

Mighty Lite.

1/2 size smaller was recommended, but turned out not to be appropriate. Returning for half size larger.

A Great Boot For Pnw Trails

So far the Moab Speed 2 has exceeded expectations. I had the GORETEX Moab 3’s but they were way too hot. The 2’s are significantly lighter and breathe much better. So far I’ve taken them on 5+ hikes and I am pleased with the purchase.

So Far So Good!

I have put about 50 miles of trail under these new boots including sloppy and muddy conditions and they are holding up well. I can come home, grab the hose and spray off the Ohio clay with the hose while still wearing them and my feet stay dry. I am expecting them to serve me for hundreds of miles, so I hope they hold up like they have this far.

Great Boot

Bought Moab-GoreTex three weeks ago have had them in Norway and now in Sweden and love them.
