Merrell Moab Speed 2 hiking shoes

The Merrell Moab Speed 2 is a modern, lightweight iteration of the iconic Moab hiking boot line. Originally designed to blend the performance of a trail runner with the durability of a traditional hiker, the Moab (Mother of All Boots) series has become a staple in the outdoor industry. The Speed 2 model specifically features technical upgrades such as GORE-TEX® waterproofing and Vibram® traction for enhanced performance.

Merrell was founded in 1981 in Vermont, USA, by Randy Merrell, Clark Matis, and John Schweizer. While it began as a specialized custom bootmaker, it quickly expanded into a global outdoor brand. Today, the brand is owned by Wolverine World Wide, a major American footwear conglomerate. To meet global demand, manufacturing takes place in several countries, predominantly across Asia in nations such as Vietnam and China, following strict quality standards established by the parent company.
