FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Merrell Moab Speed 2 Hiking Shoes are described as having a standard fit. While they are true to size, individuals with very wide feet may wish to try them on for comfort or consider models with wider fit options if available.
How do I clean my Moab Speed 2 shoes?
Clean the shoes using a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally.
What is the main benefit of the FlexPlate technology?
The Lightweight FlexPlate technology provides torsional rigidity for stability, lateral support on uneven ground, and flexibility in the forefoot for a more natural stride.
Can I use these shoes for running?
While they offer good cushioning and traction, the Moab Speed 2 are primarily designed as hiking shoes. For dedicated running, a shoe specifically designed for running may be more appropriate.
What type of terrain are these shoes best for?
These shoes are ideal for hiking on varied trails, including moderate paths, rocky and uneven surfaces, and outdoor multi-sport activities. The Vibram TC5+ outsole provides excellent traction.
Do these shoes offer ankle support?
The Merrell Moab Speed 2 are low-profile hiking shoes. They offer good support through the midsole and FlexPlate technology but provide minimal direct ankle coverage compared to mid- or high-cut boots.
What does 'true to size' mean for these shoes?
'True to size' means you should order the same UK shoe size you would typically wear. However, personal fit can vary, so trying them on is always recommended if possible.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have ordered the correct size as they are true to size.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
While Vibram offers excellent grip, wet conditions can still reduce traction. Ensure the outsole is free from mud and debris, and tread cautiously on very slick surfaces.
Feet feel uncomfortable after a long hike
Break in the shoes gradually before undertaking long hikes. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's low profile is suitable for your ankle support needs.
Odor developing after use
The Cleansport NXT treatment helps manage odor. Ensure the shoes are aired out after each use and kept dry. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth also helps.
