Moab 3 Mid Gore-Tex Hiking Trainers, olive, MERRELL

I bought these for hiking in Glacier National Park in the mud, rain, and snow. They kept my feet dry, warm, and comfortable.

These 'water proof' GORE-TEX boots leaked on the first hike! Because it was over a year that I used them for the first time MERRELL will not provide a replacement. I should have listened to the other reviewers who had the same issue. Do yourself a favor and pay the additional money for a better pair of hiking boots. Check out Lowa, Danner, Zamberlan, Asolo, and Scarpa. They make better boots than Merrell! Good Luck.

Reliable- Comfortable- Dependable outdoor rugged construction.

Advertised as "waterproof." "Waterproof" lasted 3 weeks, then first two of which were dry! No longer waterproof. Waste of money.

Trash, not waterproof. Worst boots ive owned. I wore these boots 3 times. That was 2 times too many. My feet got wet walking through fresh cut grass.

Great boots. I have only used them once in Kanab Utah and was happy with the results.

Consistently comfortable . Now as my son grows into adult sizes we are creating another lifetime customer. Keeps his feet protected on Boy Scout trips.

Comfort is 5 stars for my feet. The problem I had with this shoe is that it was not waterproof. It leaked badly on my first wet hiking trip. I wound up using plastic grocery bags over my feet before getting into the shoe to keep dry - leaked both shoes, so it wasn't just some random defect. Unfortunately that first wet trip was after 1 year of ownership so Merrell's warranty was over. Fortunately, Gore-Tex has a Guaranteed-to-keep-you-dry warranty. I sent the shoes in to Gore-Tex and got a full refund from them. If you buy these shoes, test them right away in wet conditions. I have had other shoes (different brand) with Gore-Tex which were perfectly waterproof for 10 years and only leaked a tiny bit by the time the soles were worn down. So, Gore-Tex can work perfectly fine. I just think Merrell may have a quality issue with these boots. Hopefully someone from Merrell reads this, looks into the issue and improves manufacturing quality, because otherwise they are very nice boots.
