Moab 3 Hiking Shoe - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I took the Moab 3 through a full week of desert hiking — sandstone slabs, loose canyon approaches, and a few surprise creek crossings — and they were comfortable right out of the box without a single hot spot. The Vibram TC5+ outsole gripped the slickrock exactly when I needed it, and the Air Cushion heel kept my legs feeling fresh well into the afternoon miles. This is the shoe I hand-sell to anyone who asks what to put on their feet for a Southwest trip."

Some trails are on the calendar for weeks. Others happen because the weather turned perfect and the afternoon opened up unexpectedly. The Merrell Moab 3 Hiking Shoe is built for both — a reliable, go-anywhere low-cut that transitions as easily from a spontaneous after-work ridge walk to a multi-day backpacking loop as the terrain shifts beneath it.

Merrell updated this iteration of the iconic Moab with eco-conscious materials throughout — 100% recycled mesh lining, recycled laces, and recycled webbing loops — without compromising a step of its performance. The suede leather and mesh upper balances on-trail protection with the kind of breathability that keeps feet comfortable when the sun is high and the miles are stacking up. Underfoot, the Kinetic Fit footbed with reinforced heel cushion and the Super Rebound Compound midsole work together to smooth out heel-to-toe transitions, while the Air Cushion in the heel absorbs impact on rocky descents and hardpack alike. The Vibram TC5+ sole with 5mm lugs provides dependable grip across the full range of terrain the Moab 3 was designed to handle — from dusty desert singletrack to root-laced forest floors. It's the kind of shoe that disappears on your foot and lets the trail take center stage.
