FAQs

Are the Merrell Moab Speed 2 Sport shoes waterproof?

The Moab Speed 2 Sport is not designed to be fully waterproof, but the materials offer some resistance to light moisture. For fully waterproof options, consider Merrell's Gore-Tex enabled models.

How do I determine the right size?

It is highly recommended to try on the shoes before purchasing to ensure a proper fit. Consult Merrell's sizing chart for general guidance, but in-person fitting is best for athletic footwear.

Can I use these for running?

While designed with athletic insights for agility, they are primarily trail shoes. They can handle light trail running due to their responsive nature, but are optimized for hiking and walking.

What is the primary benefit of the Vibram TC5+ outsole?

The Vibram TC5+ outsole is exclusively formulated for Merrell and provides superior grip, traction, and durability across a wide range of surfaces and conditions.

How durable is the nylon ripstop and TPU upper?

The combination of nylon ripstop and TPU offers a robust and abrasion-resistant upper, designed to withstand the rigors of trail use while remaining breathable.

Do I need to wear special socks with these shoes?

While not strictly required, wearing moisture-wicking hiking socks is recommended to enhance comfort and help manage sweat during outdoor activities.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try re-tying them with a different tension. If still uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size for your foot.

Slipping on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris, as this can affect grip. While the Vibram TC5+ offers excellent traction, extreme conditions may still pose challenges.

Discomfort after long wear

The shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure socks are appropriate for hiking.

Upper material seems dirty

Use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the ripstop nylon and TPU areas. Allow to air dry.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt and debris. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
