Women's Merrell Moab 2 Waterproof Hiking Shoe

I recently replaced an old pair of Moabs with these. I have a business that requires me to be on the trails at least 4 days a week, and Merrells have always been the best for me. I have flat feet, plantar fasciitis, and some other issues, and these are the only shoes I can wear for an extended period of time and my feet/legs/back won't kill me afterwards. Although I don't work/hike through large pools of water, they are waterproof enough for deep snow and rain/mud puddles - they keep my feet dry and warm. They've got good gripping capabilities, and you don't need to break them in (which is my favorite part).

I got this particular boot to wear on trails in a local park that can be very wet and muddy. I have ankle-high Merrells that I love and wear for more strenuous hikes, but they're almost overkill for the city park. I have lightweight Merrells that are good for warmer weather, and needed something a little sturdier when it started getting cooler. They are perfect! I can stomp through standing water and slosh around the mud, and my feet are warm and dry. And, as always, these Moabs were pure comfort straight out of the box.
