About Merrell

Trail hikers and trail-running shoes built to handle actual mud, not just sidewalks, are what put this outdoor footwear brand on trailheads across the country. Merrell got its start making boots for serious backcountry use and has since expanded into everyday hiking shoes and casual outdoor sneakers, appealing to weekend hikers as much as thru-hikers. The brand's Moab hiking shoe line built a loyal following for being comfortable straight out of the box, which matters when blisters usually mean weeks of break-in. Just know that if you exchange for a different size, that new order automatically cancels if it doesn't arrive back within 21 days of you starting the process, so don't let an exchange request sit.
