The Merrell Moab 3 Synthetic Mid Wide GTX Men’s Shoes represent the latest evolution of the world’s best-selling hiking boot, specifically engineered for those who require a wide fit without sacrificing performance. This mid-cut height hiker is built for multi-terrain versatility, combining a durable synthetic and mesh upper with a high-performance GORE-TEX waterproof membrane to ensure your feet stay dry while maintaining essential breathability. Designed for out-of-the-box comfort, the boot features a bellows tongue to keep debris out and a protective and abrasion-resistant rubber heel and toe cap for added longevity on rugged trails. The interior is lined with mesh lining and equipped with a Kinetic Fit Advanced removable footbed and forced heel cushioning for personalised support. Stability is anchored by a moulded nylon arch shank and the signature Merrell Air Cushion in the heel, which absorbs shock and adds steadying support. For an energetic stride, the Super Rebound Compound midsole provides durable torque reduction, while the Vibram TC5+ outsole delivers world-class traction. Committed to sustainability, this model also incorporates recycled laces, webbing, and mesh into its rugged construction.
