Literally the best hiking shoes for £60.00. I can’t fault the Merrell Moab for comfort and affordability. Brilliant little trekking shoe!
I first got these at a Go Outdoors store because they were the cheapest ones there, but after hiking hundreds of miles in these they’ve really help up to the test of time.
The Merrell Moab trail shoe is durable and light weight for its price point and is the perfect hiking shoe for those just starting out their thruhiking journey along our national scenic trails.
I really didn’t like how Go Outdoors said on their website that these are “Gore Tex Water Proof” These shoes definitely are not waterproof.
But hey, that’s not a bad thing, because these shoes dry out super fast.

Going to use these shoes for the EBC trek next week. Got them for 65 euro during black Friday sales. Good bang for the buck.
