The Moab Legacy, Reinforced (8 Inch):
If you love the unbeatable comfort of classic Merrell Moab hiking footwear, you'll go crazy for this tactical version. The 8-inch height (military standard) provides rock-solid ankle support, essential for moving over rough terrain or uneven urban pavements while carrying heavy loads. The armored upper is made of PU-coated water-repellent leather and breathable mesh, offering a perfect blend of durability and lightness. The toe and heel are reinforced in sturdy abrasion-resistant rubber to withstand impacts and wear.
Quick Fit (Side Zip) and WP Shield:
Efficiency is everything. Thanks to the sturdy medial side zipper (protected and waterproof), you can slip the boot on or off in a fraction of a second without ever having to untie the laces. The internal Waterproof (WP) membrane seals water out, while the gusseted tongue blocks the entry of dirt, water and debris, ensuring your feet stay warm, dry and protected in any weather condition.
Absolute Comfort for 24H Shifts:
Standing for an entire shift destroys your back and joints, but Merrell has the solution. The midsole with Super Rebound Compound and the Merrell Air Cushion integrated in the heel continuously absorb shocks, ensuring a smooth and soft transition of the step. Inside, the molded COMFORTBASE™ footbed cradles the foot, supported by a molded nylon arch shank that prevents unnatural twisting.
Vibram® Traction and Eco-Sustainability:
Tackle mud, wet asphalt or rocky ground with maximum safety thanks to the Vibram® TC5+ sole, a compound formulated exclusively for Merrell to offer unparalleled multisport grip. In addition to performance, the MOAB 3 Tactical look to the environment: the lining, laces and footbed cover are made of 100% recycled mesh. The natural Cleansport NXT™ treatment keeps the shoe fresh, ensuring active and prolonged odor control.
The Golden Rule of the Side Zip: A broken zip is every operator's worst nightmare! To avoid stressing it, proceed as follows: the first time you wear the boot, keep the zip closed and adjust the front lacing until you find the perfect tension, then make a nice double knot. From that moment on, forget about the laces! Use only the side zipper to take the boot off and on. You will have the tension of a military boot and the practicality of a slipper.
The magic of Air Cushion on Concrete: If you work in security (security guard, unarmed surveillance, events) you know how much asphalt and industrial floors destroy heels. Merrell's Air Cushion system was created precisely to dissipate this return energy from rigid floors. You will arrive at the end of the shift with your back and knees much less fatigued than when using traditional rigid boots.
Pay attention to Waterproof maintenance! To avoid ruining the WP membrane and the Cleansport NXT™ anti-odor treatment, NEVER put the boots in the washing machine and do not dry them near fire or radiators. Clean the leather and mesh with a soft brush and water. Keep the zip always clean from sand and dust (perhaps by passing an old toothbrush over it) to prevent it from jamming over time.
