FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for winter snow conditions?
While the Moab Speed 2 is waterproof, it is primarily designed for fall hiking. It will handle light snow, but is not insulated for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the waterproof membrane. Clean by hand with a damp cloth.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
You should have a small amount of room in the toe box for when your feet swell during long hikes, but the heel should feel locked in without excessive slipping.
Is the leather upper animal-derived?
Yes, this model features genuine nubuck leather, which provides durability and protection.
Can I replace the laces with different ones?
Yes, you can replace the recycled laces with any standard hiking-grade lace of the same length if needed.
Troubleshooting
Waterproofing appears less effective over time
Apply a specialized leather-safe waterproof treatment to the exterior nubuck to restore its hydrophobic properties.
Footbed feels compressed
The EVA footbed is removable; remove it and let it air out, or replace it with a new high-density insole if necessary.
Debris getting trapped in outsoles
While the Vibram TC5+ is designed to shed debris, if mud is thick, use a stiff nylon brush to clear the lugs between hikes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Moab Speed 2 shoes last for many seasons, proper care is essential. Following each hike, remove excess mud or debris from the outsole using a soft brush. If the leather upper becomes soiled, clean it with a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner. Avoid using harsh soaps or detergents that can strip the natural oils from the nubuck. Always air-dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, as intense heat can cause the leather to crack or the adhesives to weaken. Because the footbed is removable, you can easily take it out to clean it or replace it with custom orthotics if necessary.
