About this product
Speed-Inspired, Moab-Proven
The Merrell Moab Speed 2 Hiking Shoe takes the Moab's legendary trail credibility and channels it through a faster, more agile low-cut design - a 39% recycled engineered mesh and TPU upper keeps the construction breathable and lightweight, while FlexPlate technology and FloatPro Foam deliver the dynamic underfoot feel of a trail runner with the protection and stability of a hiking shoe. A Vibram TC5+ outsole with 4mm lugs, rock plate, and abrasion-resistant heel and toe cap ensure the shoe holds its own on demanding terrain, while a partially recycled EVA insole with 30% more foam underfoot than previous generations adds a noticeably cushioned ride. Built with 100% recycled laces, lining, and a vegan-friendly construction throughout, the Moab Speed 2 is one of Merrell's most comprehensively sustainable hiking shoe builds.

Why You'll Love Them
The 39% recycled engineered mesh upper is specifically designed to balance structure and breathability - TPU overlays reinforce high-wear zones while the mesh keeps air moving freely, making the Moab Speed 2 a strong performer on warm-weather hikes where ventilation matters. The partially recycled insole's 30% foam increase is a tangible upgrade that you feel underfoot - more cushioning depth means less fatigue on longer days without adding meaningful weight to the shoe. The combination of FlexPlate stability, Vibram TC5+ traction, and a fully vegan, heavily recycled construction makes the Moab Speed 2 a shoe that delivers on performance and sustainability in equal measure.
