Merrell Moab 3 Hiking Boot, From $69 (was $120) at Amazon 
As a hiking enthusiast myself, I purchased the Moab 3 Hiking Boot last year and have used it on dozens of hikes, and over a variety of terrain including gravel, large rock and stone, and sand. The boot exceeded my personal expectations and was truly comfortable and of the highest quality.
Merrell Moab 3 Hiking Boot has risen in popularity within the hiking community as the No. 1 bestselling hiking boot on Amazon, and over 500 have been purchased in the last month alone.
The Moab 3 is the latest of the popular product line, and includes upgraded Vibram rubber soles that provide extra traction on uneven terrain. The shoe was designed with a high level of breathable materials, which make ventilation key during long hikes. For hikers who are frequently going on steep incline or jagged rocks, the “super rebound compound” is extremely helpful to minimize any shock to the body.

“Best hikers I’ve ever owned,” one shopper wrote. “800+ miles and in virtually out-of-the-box condition! … Today I walk, hike, and run 6.3 miles every day in the very rugged Sonoran desert. It’s very rocky and even where it’s not rocky the ground is like sandpaper. The soles of the shoes are Vibram and it is the toughest stuff I’ve ever had on my shoe. … The insoles on these are perfect and show no wear even after over 800 miles of hiking, walking, and running.”

One verified-purchase shopper in the reviews put the waterproof feature to the ultimate test when they brought the hiking boots in their shower, aimed a shower head directly at the boots, and they stayed 100% dry.
“One of the key features that influenced my decision was that they are waterproof,” another shopper wrote. “I live in the Pacific Northwest and winter and spring seasons tend to be pretty wet. I’ve been on a few hikes and have found these boots to not only be waterproof, but well-made and comfortable as well.”
Between the Moab 3 and Moab Mid 3 Waterproof, Merrell has built a reputation for high-quality, dependable, and long-lasting footwear, and now you can get them for a steal of a price.
