LOVE EM!!
I love them very much very comfortable and the color is spot on to the pictures, though I will say it says that they run small and to size up but for me personally I got my regular size 8.5 and they’re actually a tad big on me and I have narrow feet. So in size 9, would’ve been too big otherwise they’re perfect 10 out of 10 would recommend

Not Waterproof
I'm so disappointed with the Moab 3 boots. I've only had them for 6 months and they are no longer waterproof. I have only lightly used them over the winter months so it was a very unpleasant surprise when I went on a slightly rainy spring, 2 mile, hike and my feet were soaked. There was so much water in the boots that I had to pour it out. I had a pair of Moab 3 boots 4 years ago and they stayed mostly waterproof until they were just too worn out to continue wearing.

Most comfortable
These are the most comfortable walking shoes yet! My feet have loads of issues (bunions, neuropathy, etc) but I wore these for a short (1 mile) walk the first time and no pain!

Took my Moab 3 Mids to Moab.
I ended up sizing up a full size in these because I like a lot of room in the toe box. I hiked 4 miles in uneven terrain and slick rock with elevation gain, and I’m happy to report that they did not slide up and down my heel. My only complaint was that my feet did get very sweaty-even wearing a merino mid weight hiking sock. The high temp was 77 when we hiked. Would definitely recommend these as an entry point boot.

We are really happy to hear you had a great experience!
