That doesn’t look like office wear and tear
It does look office wear to me.
I’d recommend Belleville 590 boots. You will have to figure out your size. I’m a size 9.5 USA normally, and I wear a size 8 in Belleville .
Thanks for the recommendation, I will be sure to check them out. 👍
@@TerraRangerGold I’ve had mine for 3 years. Maybe 100 miles. And barely any sign of wear. Best boots I’ve had.
I hike in Merrels… various models and have had no issues. I hike regularity and usually get 6-8 months before i change them out.
Not sure how you wore out the laces on 6 hikes and to the office?
Im thinking the metal lace parts cut into them. Maybe they were pulled too tight??? Everyone speaks very highly of them, maybe I got a dodgy pair. 😬 Thanks for the feedback.
7 months wear in the office, the office probably is in the outback :)
Redbacks for prospecting. No metal and tough soles.
Thanks mate, will check them out.
I wear mongrel or redback pull on work boots. Plastic or no toe guard. Great for prospecting.
I used Merrell's in Afghanistan and have loved them since. Use them for hiking, farm work and hunting still. Must be a dud pair because mine went through Afghan water ways, dry desert, rocks, rocks and more rocks from Afghan winters to their 50 + summers. This was carrying 40kg pack and 25kg plus personal equipment and still use them for back pack hunting, usually in the cooler months. Once you get a dud pair though it ruins the name for you.
Hey thanks for sharing Liam. Yeh most people only have great things to say about them. I must have gotten a dud pair. Thanks for your service.
Quality went down hill since then
Moab 3 Edge Wide Width; just tried to leave a review for these on the Merrell site, in response to an email they sent asking for a review. Funny, I bought another different pair of boots I just reviewed BEFORE I bought my Moabs, but they did not allow me to post my Moab review due to expiration (hmmm)...only purchased in Feb, but they allowed me to post for the other boot. Fact is, the Moabs are DANGEROUS!!! Not only because of the terrible laces that do not tighten due to the lace material and come undone constantly, but the Vibram (?) sole HAS NO GRIP under damp conditions. I bought my Moabs specifically for a trip to the UK and "Vibram sole", and held on for my life while walking the ramparts around Conway Castle when others in sneakers had no issues. Worst boot I've ever purchased, and now have no confidence in both Merrell and this crappy dumb-down Vibram sole. Sorry Merrell, I was a 40 year fan...no more.
Thanks for the informative response. 👍

I bought a used pair on EBAY for $45.00. Seems many boot owners don’t do leather maintenance? For me I’ve been using mink oil on my expensive leather boots for decades. one of my Chippewa boots are over 30 years old and still good, these Merrell’s aren’t even close to that kind of quality but they are comfortable for general use and when cared for they can hang in there.
Thanks for the tips mate. They are definitely comfortable. I expected a little better quality. Have a good day.
I no what ya mean your absolutely right cause I had to reglue the Vibram soles on my shoes and they were $270.
That’s ridiculous. Fair enough if they are 12 months old and have been through hell and back. But not 7 months in an office.
I’m glad I’m not the only one. But what is a good quality hiking boot?
Try pair of Oliver at55 hiker boot.
I had the same ones they were great lasted 3 years I now use crispie thors but they cost 305$
I must have got a dud pair. Everyone says how good they are.
I will check them out thanks.
@@TerraRangerGold you will live the crispies if you live in rough terrain they are amazing
You can repair the merrell moab 3 local cobbler store.
I find this hard to believe. I’ve used Merrell and can attest to their quality
So many folks can. Have you purchased any in the last 12 months? Obviously I’m very disappointed.
Merrell wear quick. I use them knowing I’m going to replace them once a year minimum.
Absolutely, I know that now. Thanks for the feedback.
LOL office wear? Seriously my Merrell's have lasted for years hiking almost daily and in cold snowy weather.
Yep office wear, seriously. I got them because everyone has good things to say about them. Maybe a got a bad pair.
@@TerraRangerGold had to be a bad pair which is not normal for Merrell. I buy only 3 styles which I find are the best overall. I'm sure they make some lesser quality styles
I just bought the merrel Moab 3 black boots I’ve been to only one 20 km hike over 3 days and my soles look even worse than yours 👎👎
Wow, thanks sharing. I can’t find a quality hiking boot. 🥾 I’m obviously very disappointed with mine.
I am probably just gonna return them. 3 days of a school trip in the desert shouldn’t do so much damage to the soles…
Використовую в Україні протягом двох місяців, в місті і в лісі. Ваше відео мене налякало. Надіюсь, що в мене не така погана пара.
Mam merele ze sķóry licowej które mają 10 lat i dopiero teraz podeszwa zaczyna pekać a cholewka w dobrym stanie. Nigdy ich nie impregnowałem i lepszych butow juz nie znajdę. Dzisiejsze buty to juz nie to samo.
Those glued on molded soles, man. They're nothing but sneakers that won't stand up to serious hiking or climbing.
Yes 100 % mate. 👍
My Timberland LEATHER White Ledge Waterproof Mid Hiker Boots made in CAMBODIA have beat every mid hight hiker I've tried. No matter where they were made U.S.A., Taiwan. England. My Timberlands have beat them all. Thanks for the video my Brother 👍 ⚔️ ✝️ 🇺🇲
Thanks for the informative input. I will check them out for sure. Thanks 👍⚒️🥾
