FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Merrell Moab 3 features a mesh upper for breathability, meaning it is not fully waterproof. It is best suited for dry to moderate conditions.
How do I determine my size?
Merrell sizing is standard, but if you intend to wear thick wool hiking socks, consider sizing up by a half size to ensure adequate toe room.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them out for custom orthotics or aftermarket insoles if needed.
Are these suitable for muddy trails?
The Vibram TC5+ soles provide excellent traction in mud, but because of the mesh construction, mud may penetrate the material more easily than on a full-leather shoe.
How often should I clean the exterior?
It is recommended to brush off dirt after every hike to prevent the material from abrading and to maintain breathability.
Are these heavy for a hiking shoe?
The Moab 3 is considered a mid-weight hiking shoe, striking a balance between the stability of a boot and the agility of a trainer.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Ensure you are using a double knot or a reef knot; since the laces are recycled material, they may be slightly smoother than traditional cotton laces.
Debris getting inside despite the bellows tongue
Check that the tongue is pulled fully upright and centered before tightening your laces.
Stiff leather feel after purchase
Apply a leather conditioner designed for hiking footwear to soften the material and speed up the break-in process.
Pros and Cons

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Merrell Moab 3 hiking shoes maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear the shoes around the house or on short walks before heading out on long, strenuous trails to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove excess mud or dirt after each hike using a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and a mild soap; avoid harsh detergents which can damage the leather.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Never place them directly on radiators or heaters, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack and the adhesives to fail.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
