FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The standard Moab 3 features a mesh upper for breathability; it is not explicitly marketed as waterproof. Consider a dedicated waterproofing spray for light splash protection.
What is the primary material?
The upper is constructed from pigskin leather and breathable mesh.
Do I need to break these in?
Yes, while comfortable out of the box, we recommend wearing them for a few short walks before embarking on a long-distance hike to allow the leather to conform to your foot.
What is the purpose of the bellows tongue?
It is attached to the sides of the shoe to keep out debris like sand, leaves, and small rocks while you are on the trail.
Is the sole replaceable?
The Vibram TC5+ sole is permanently bonded to the midsole; it is not designed for resoling.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone
Use a double knot or replace with aftermarket performance laces if the recycled ones feel too slippery.
Accumulated dirt on the exterior
Gently scrub the pigskin leather and mesh with a damp soft-bristled brush after the mud has dried.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell Moab 3 hiking shoes, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt after each hike using a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use water and a mild detergent; avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can crack the leather or warp the adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Compatibility: These shoes are designed for standard adult hiking socks. Ensure your socks are moisture-wicking to optimize the performance of the mesh lining.
