Merrell Moab 2 Vent Men's Suede EVA Lace-Up Hiking Shoes Black 12

Ordered replacement of boots, even better than old ones, great colors, no break in, comfortable, handled multiple terrain conditions well, love the boots so much i ordered a back up pair!

I bought my first pair of Merrell Moab boots probably 15-years ago. I found that the wide toe box in the medium width boot is very comfortable for all day wear. Since then I wear Moabs exclusively and over the last few years have two identical pairs that I alternate days with. That gives one pair a chance to dry out after walking the dog in the field (or after a long day working in the field) while I wear the second pair. I also have a third pair with the waterproof liner. These I buy one-half size larger than my normal size because the liner makes them a little smaller than normal. In addition I get a little room for a heavier sock. These are my winter boots when it is wet or snowy. We do not have the super cold days here in northern Nevada that exist in other parts of the country, but we do have some snow. The regular Moab boots last me about two years, with two pairs worn in rotation. I walk quite a few miles, so I think I get my money's worth from them.
