Product Information

Full details

This hybrid boot offers exceptional waterproofing and advanced underfoot cushioning, though users looking for heavy-duty alpine mountaineering rigidity may find its lightweight construction less stiff than traditional leather boots.

FAQs

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Moab Speed 2 has a standard athletic fit; if you have particularly wide feet, you may want to size up by half a size or test them with your preferred hiking socks.

Can I use these for winter hiking?

While the GORE-TEX membrane offers weather protection, these are not insulated winter boots. They are best suited for three-season use unless paired with thermal socks.

How do I clean the mud off the Vibram soles?

Use a stiff-bristled brush under running water to dislodge debris from the lug patterns. Allow to air dry naturally.

Do these boots require a long break-in period?

Thanks to the athletic construction and flexible upper materials, the break-in period is significantly shorter than traditional hiking boots, often feeling comfortable out of the box.

Are they fully waterproof?

The GORE-TEX membrane provides high-level waterproofing, though water can enter through the top of the ankle collar if submerged deeply.

Troubleshooting

Feeling moisture inside the boot despite the GORE-TEX membrane.

Ensure your socks are synthetic or wool-based. Cotton socks hold moisture and can make the foot feel wet from perspiration, even if the boot is not leaking.

Heel slippage while walking.

Re-lace the boots using a 'heel lock' technique by utilizing the top eyelets to create a snugger fit around the ankle collar.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly lighter than traditional hiking boots
  • High-level waterproofing from GORE-TEX
  • Excellent energy return from increased midsole foam
  • Strong grip on mud and loose dirt via Vibram outsoles
  • Athletic, nimble feel suitable for fast-packing

Cons

  • Less ankle rigidity compared to full-leather mountain boots
  • Lighter build may show wear faster under extreme heavy-load conditions
  • Mid-height cuff requires intentional lacing for maximum support

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Moab Speed 2 boots, proper maintenance is essential. Always clear debris from the outsole after a hike to preserve the Vibram rubber's integrity. When the boots get wet, dry them naturally at room temperature; avoid placing them directly against heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane and warp the adhesives. To maintain breathability, clean the exterior of the boots with a soft brush and water when they become caked with mud. Ensure your laces are tensioned correctly across the bridge of the foot to fully utilize the secure heel counter lock.
