Merrell - Moab Speed

Do they come in wide sizes? For reference, Merrill Moab originals are my go-to because they fit my feet. Comparison? That's the reason I'm thinking about trying Merrill Moab Speed 2s (or I guess they're up to 3, now). I'd try Topos, but I get bummed buying good shoes that don't fit. Right now I have a pair of $300 Thorogood work boots that ended up being too narrow. I had always bought Red Wing, but they seem to have been bought by private equity: what they sell now is synthetic uppers made in China. PS. Came back to ask, is Ultraventure 4 considered the UL hiking go-to? 5 mm drop.

Merrell Moabs are great. I’m currently wearing a pair of New Balance that were gifted to me; the Hierro trail runner; they’re also gortex and have vibram soles. They’re quite comfortable, breathable, grippy and light as a feather.

I alternate between my Solomon trails and Merrill Moab’s

Over the years I’ve worn trail runners from Merrill and Salomon, or standard running shoes from Nike and NB. A comfortable fit was the main criteria. Even on wet ground I’d rather have fast drying sneakers than boots.

I actually have those Merrels in blue. I love them.

I wouldn't know haha. I have some wide feet and have no problems. About 100 miles of trails and they look like they are brand new besides mud stains.

Just came back from Val Gardena area (Col Rodella/Antermoia/Vajolet Towers). I used my Merrill Trail runners but packed a pair of black Rothy Mary Janes for pre and post in Munich and Innsbruck. They pack up flat, go anywhere and are comfy for walking. Highly recommend if it's not too late! 

I’ve got two pairs of trail runners 1 merrell and 1 Nike Pegasus gtx. Both 9.5ik size. The merrell are roomier but have a slightly harder sole. The Nike have a softer sole but are tight across the width of the foot. So as others have said try and get to a running shop and try them on with different types of socks.
