Women's Merrell Moab 2 Vent Hiking Shoe

The hikers I didn't know I needed! Bought these at the last minute for my trip to Arizona and I am so thankful I did! We were lucky enough to win the lottery for The Wave 2 days before and although I was aware the hike was rated “Strenuous” I had originally planned to wear my running shoes. That would have ended up an epic fail. The hilly hike was truly treacherous - varying between uneven gravel, loose rocks, deep sand and these hikers were just what I needed to complete and survive the hike! I never would have made the hike without them!

This is my third pair of Merrell Moab Ventilator sneakers. Having had bilateral foot pain for years I thought my walking days were over. With the help of an excellent podiatrist and custom orthotic inserts, I came across the Moab sneakers in just my size a couple of years ago. The orthotics fit perfectly in the shoe. There is very good support, plenty of toe room and a firm sole, just what I needed. I am now back to daily walking, slow jogging, along with another pair to wear reserved for gardening, Just to be on the safe side, I also ordered a spare pair for down the road. So glad I found this shoe and hope Merrell continues to sell them.
