★★★★☆
I expected more from a company like Merrell. Ive owned several pair of their shoes ...
My original MOAB lasted me nearly 3 years, so I figured the 2 would be the same or close enough.
I got them June 1st and it is currently July 21st, the soles of both are coming off. The right one is significantly falling off, the left one just started. Thats what finished the MOAB One by the way.
Ill buy some Shoe Goo, but I shouldn't have to.
I expected more from a company like Merrell. Ive owned several pair of their shoes and always been quite satisfied.
Having said all that, they are very comfortable, and I will be having them repaired in the hopes they last another 5 or 6 hundred miles.
Edit: the rubber sole was coming apart from the foam cushion, but now, only two days after my original review and not even two months after purchasing them, the foam itself is coming off the shoe.
Im changing my review to one star. There shouldn't be multiple failures in a pair of shoes. What happened to you Merrell? My three year old MOAB 1s are in better shape than the 2s.
Edit 2:
I was contacted by Merrell. They had me cut the tongues off my broken shoes and they sent me a new pair. These ones are going strong for 4 months now with no issues. Changing my rating to 4 stars. The first shouldnt have broken, but perhaps I got a lemon.
Edit 3:
It's been two years now. No issues. Love your gear Merrell! This is the quality I expected. Chalking it up to a rare flaw.
