Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight after an hour of hiking

Feet often swell during exercise; try loosening the laces slightly to allow for expansion.

Debris entering the shoe

Ensure the bellows tongue is centered and the laces are securely tied to bridge the gap between the tongue and the eyestays.

Loss of traction on wet rock

Check if the outsole treads are clogged with mud; clean the sole with water and a brush to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Merrell Moab 3 shoes last through many miles, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: While the Moab is famous for comfort right away, take a few short walks before embarking on a multi-day trip to ensure the fit works with your specific sock preferences.
  2. Cleaning: After muddy hikes, remove surface dirt using a soft-bristled brush. For stubborn mud, rinse with cool water and air dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
  3. Drying: Never place your shoes near direct heat sources like radiators or campfires, as this can degrade the glues and materials.
  4. Care: If the suede or outer materials lose their appearance, use a dedicated cleaning spray compatible with hiking footwear materials.
