Nice Light Weight Version Of A Moab!

Have worn Moab low quarter hiking shoes for ever, however, was looking for something in a hiker that was a bit lighter for everyday wear and perhaps more cushion on the feet. The Speed Strike seems to fit that requirement, at least for me. Live in the desert foothills above Phoenix and daily walking a combination of concrete, light trails and occasionally a trail for a more demanding shoe with heavier lugs. Switch between this shoe and a Moab II when I need something real heavy duty. The shoe is light enough with great flexibility. The toe box is also a bit extended compared to the Moab II so feels more comfortable going downhill. They may not last as long as a Moab, but will see how that goes. Satisfied with the purchase.

I Really Like These Shoes

I really like these shoes. They nicely wrap my feet. I have metatarsal issues and these shoes are comfortable. I am thinking about getting another pair in a different color.

Cheap Insoles

These shoes blew me away when I first got them at the beginning of the year. They were an excellent new hiking/ trail running shoe that motivated me to start hiking everyday since then. Unfortunately I discovered after having a foot irritation issue on one foot, that the soles were the most cheapest insoles I have ever seen, and also that they literally slide around inside the shoe as they are not affixed in anyway like a new shoe would be. Consequently now I have a contact dermatitis issue I am dealing with because the insoles are so cheap. Quite disappointing for merrell shoes and what they cost. "Soles sliding back in the shoe. They don’t seem glued securely." Apparently I am not the only one who has encountered this issue. Please fix merrell team

Great Shoes Again From Merrell

Bought these shoes a couple weeks ago. They are great, fit like a glove and are great for walking the trails and I even wore them to wrk to try them all day. Great shoes from Merrell.

Excellent Shoes For Work And Walking

Best and most comfortable shoes I've bought for work and walking on concrete! No more pain! Soft and comfortable from start and no break in needed

My New Go To!

Great multi-purpose shoe in my honest opinion. I've done everything from a 22mile walk to running 10 miles on a timber path. No blistering or hot spots! Will be an avid buyer of these. DO NOT CHANGE THEM!

Speed Strike 2 Comfort Problem

These are comfortable but the outside of the shoe rubbed on my ankle until they were worn a couple of times.

Great All-day Shoe For Active Lifestyle

A small fortune wasted, now that I will probably drop all my other shoes I'll not be needing anymore off at Goodwill! But for trail walk/runs with my husky, or running into the hardware store, on pavement, these are so great, solid, hug your feet to the ground - the fit, the drop, light weight, the perfect amount of cush... for my feet, weight (155), build, etc.. these are the best shoes I've ever owned, including some other Merrell's (Moab3 and Agility Peak) that have their niche. My feet have never been this spoiled.
