Good Things Await With Merrell Moab Hiking Boots

merrell

This season, we embrace the spirit of adventure, reminding every hiker that there’s more to discover out there.

We have noticed that when it comes to hiking, many people are under the false impression that this activity is strictly reserved for individuals who possess strong fitness levels, or who seek the thrill of standing at the edge of a cliff atop the summit.

However, this is not the case. These adventures are within reach for those who might be gradually starting their hiking journey. All you need is the right mindset and a solid pair of hiking boots, and you'll discover that good things await once you begin your adventure!

This is where our Moab Speed 2 comes in. With these hiking boots, you can embark on ANY adventure! In this blog, we break down the very many attainable ways for the modern hiker to enjoy time outdoors, and why you need the Moab Speed 2 on your feet.

Explore the urban landscape

Who said that adventure only lies on mountain trails?

For many people grinding through the 9-to-5 workday, finding the time to explore mountaintops and forests might be difficult. However, this is not the only way to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors.

Exploring the urban landscape offers just as much adventure! 

1. City Markets: Outdoor markets are often fun and vibrant events where city dwellers can enjoy different cuisines and explore local talent. This simple excursion provides a lively atmosphere and a chance to soak up some outdoor fun.

2. Botanical Gardens: Visiting your local botanical garden is another simple yet effective way to get fresh air and enjoy the solitude of nature. It’s a perfect outing for individuals or families looking to appreciate beautiful sights.

3. Walk Along the Promenade: The promenade offers scenic views, the calming sound of waves crashing, and a vibrant life of people enjoying various activities. It is a simple yet effective way to catch some fresh air after being cooped up in an office all day long.

4. Urban Trails: You might be surprised by the many hidden trails within a city. These trails offer the convenience of enjoying a short hike while catering to beginner fitness levels. So, if you are new to the suburb, talk to some of the locals and enjoy the hidden gems you may find.

5. Family Park Excursions: A trip to your local park is an underrated activity, yet it's simple and fun for the whole family! Lace up your boots, leash your fur babies, and enjoy the fresh air, the beauty of nature, and the joy of spending quality time together.

These are all ways that you can reconnect with nature without having to spend time travelling to remote locations. Good times await those who seek adventure—wherever they may be. Sometimes, starting small is the key to getting going on your outdoor journeys. And don’t forget that having the right footwear, which can transition from office to outdoors in no time, makes everything easier and more enjoyable!

The Moab’s Secret to All-Day Comfort

Let’s face it: nothing ruins a day of exploration like sore feet. That’s where the innovative FloatPro™ technology and Moab Last come in. FloatPro™ is designed to provide lightweight cushioning without compromising durability. This means you get a responsive feel underfoot that doesn’t weigh you down, perfect for long walks, hikes, or just a day on the go. Combined with the Moab Last, which moulds to your foot’s natural shape, you’re ensured a custom-like fit that hugs your feet in all the right places.

Modern Design Meets Lifestyle Colourways

While performance is always of the utmost importance for our Merrell Footwear, the Moab Speed 2 recognises the value of design.

Built to encourage ANYONE and EVERYONE to enjoy time outdoors, this versatile footwear style comprises a sleek design in a number of stunning colourways! This means, you no longer have to sacrifice style for functionality - with the Moab Speed 2, you can have both.

Enjoy the convenience of seamlessly transitioning from office wear to outdoor gear with just one pair of hiking boots.

Built for Speed and South African Adventure

The Moab Speed 2 is built for quick, agile movement across various terrains. With a lightweight build, these boots help you move fast without compromising on grip or durability. Thanks to the Vibram TC5+ outsole, you’ll experience superior traction whether you're navigating slippery trails or slick city pavements. South Africa’s diverse environments require footwear that can rise to the occasion, and our Moab Speed 2 does exactly that.

South African Terrain

The style also features waterproof technology, offering protection for those unexpected rain showers or river crossings, so nothing stands in the way of your adventure. With the Moab Speed 2, you're ready for anything.
