- Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2024Size: 11Color: BlackVerified PurchaseThis is probably the 10th pair of Merrell shoes I've purchased. I think these are the best so far. They have a solid toe, which I didn't realize when I ordered them. They are heavier and seem to have a thicker sole as well. I love the way they look and they are even more comfortable than my other Merrill Moab boots. The solid toe has plenty of room without looking Frankensteinish. They are breaking in nicely and I've noticed no discomfort, which is better than I can say for my other Merrill shoes which did have a small break-in period during which they were a little uncomfortable. Great boots!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2024The Merrell Men's Moab Vertex Mid Waterproof Composite Toe Construction Boot is an excellent choice for anyone working in construction or similar fields. These boots offer a combination of comfort, durability, and safety features that are essential on the job.
The waterproof feature is particularly useful, keeping my feet dry and comfortable even in wet conditions. The composite toe provides protection without the added weight of traditional steel toes, which is a bonus for long hours of wear.
I appreciate the support and stability these boots offer, thanks to their mid-height design and cushioned footbed. They provide a secure fit without feeling too restrictive, allowing for natural movement while working.
The quality of materials and craftsmanship is evident, and I'm confident these boots will hold up well over time. They're also stylish enough to wear outside of work, adding to their versatility.
Overall, the Merrell Moab Vertex Mid Waterproof Boot is a solid investment for anyone needing reliable footwear for demanding work environments. Highly recommended for comfort, safety, and durability!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2024Size: 9Color: ClayVerified PurchaseThese shoes are a good compromise. When I was searching for summer boots for southern heat in May these, the Keen composite toe, and Ariat light composite toe were my final choices. This one felt the lightest, most supportive both in arch and sides out of the 3 - they haven’t disappointed. Even with thin socks all summer I don’t think I came home once with wet feet. Completely waterproof, I work in stormwater management, so these held up to everyday mud/wet/nasty. Still light enough to not sweat my feet completely out.
There has been a bit of wear and tear from the rubber in the toe guard, the seams aren’t glued and they pull out like any worn rubber would along the seams. I feel like there could’ve been a bit better construction on their end…
Regardless, usually I use insoles for my work boots and they make a monster difference - I haven’t had any in 3 months I’ve worn these boots.
Would completely recommend for light duty work or heavily walking-oriented activities.

5.0 out of 5 stars Light weight, comfortable, breathable, long lasting, perfect! Moabs are the best!
Size: 13Color: Black/BlackVerified PurchaseI have all types of Moabs. Low top for every day, mid top for hiking and mountain biking, and now these for work and motorcycle riding. They are all super comfortable and last many years. I am very hard on them. These boots are very light weight for hard toe work boots, breathe well and have a nice squish underfoot. They even come with high quality insoles (more so than my other Moabs). I do have a narrow foot with some arch and these are the lightest, most comfortable and longest lasting shoes and boots I have ever owned. I've been wearing Moabs for around 20 years.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2024I have arthritis in both my feet and finding safety tow boots that bo not hurt is almost impossible..so I thought. I wear merrells alot and they are the only shoes that do not bother my feet. I was surprised when I found out they made work boots. Had to try them and it was the best money spent ever. I work 8 - 10 hrs walking on concrete and these have made that virtually pain free. I would recommend these for anyone with foot issues to try them out. Light weight and durable. They are slightly insulated so they will get alittle warm indoors but compared to all the other boots my feet are dry at the end of the day.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2021Size: 8.5Color: PewterVerified PurchaseBought these a few days ago. The feel was comfortable and my feet/whole body tolerated them well right out of the box. Walking around the house for a few hours I thought I had a winner. Nope!
I wore them to work for the first time and they sucked. I work in a warehouse and we use a pallet-jack most of the 8 hour shift hauling loads of several hundreds of pounds. Having a load weight of more than a hundred pounds plus the weight of the pallet-jack itself is virtually impossible to move, as the non-slip soles did not grip the concrete floor and constantly broke traction. Trying to get started without traction made the job extremely rough going.
I did try wearing the "Merrell Havoc Wells Moc", which I had on hand while I was awaiting delivery, the previous night with GREAT success. Those soles NEVER broke traction once. The only problem therein is that the Merrell Havoc Wells Mocs are not tie-up, and they are not safety toe footwear. Maybe, just maybe if they put a Merrell Havoc Wells Moc sole on this boot, all would be GREAT.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2024Size: 10.5Color: PewterVerified PurchaseGot these 2 years ago. I buy like 7 pairs from Amazon regardless of the name,try 'em all, send back All I don't like. These made the cut! They were the most comfortable on my flat feet & messed up ankles, waterproof, affordable & Actually durable! After 2 years of abuse nothing on them has fallen apart. Of course I changed out insoles a couple of times. But that's like brake pads on your car.
I don't fall for the timberland pro hype anymore. They LOOK good but are exoensive sometimes & aren't comfortable on my feet or ankles anymore. Recommended these to my friends at work. Would definitely buy again!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2025Size: 12Color: Black/BlackVerified PurchaseI ordered the boots never came so I ordered them again after I got my refund and the boots showed up used this is the 2 nd time I’ve ordered boots that showed up used I’m am not happy with Merrell boots don’t get me wrong I love there boots but sick of them showing up used

5.0 out of 5 stars Lo mejor de dos mundos
Estas botas merrel combinan lo mejor de dos mundos. Son muy comodas para trabajar, con la proteccion necesaria para no preocuparte por golpes o machucones en los dedos del pie, y con el agarre, soporte e impermeabilidad de una bota para senderismo.
