The Merrell Moab hiking boots remain one of the most popular styles for men looking to hit the trail. This model was made in partnership with Jeep and features some of the latter's most iconic colors: Sarge Green and Sting Grey (Hydro Blue has already sold out). It features all the power expected from the Moab 3 hiking boot, from its tough-as-nails Vibram outsole to its ergonomic footbed and phenomenal ankle support. Now just $127, it's a uniquely colored hiking boot few others will have whether you're stomping through dunes or traversing a dirt trail.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "This is my third pair of Merrell Moab boots. These by far exceeded my expectations. They are well made, extremely comfortable, and the toe box is roomier than my other two pairs. I'm a die-hard Jeep enthusiast and the Jeep-related details are fantastic. Even the box is a keeper."

What Shoppers Are Saying: "I purchased these for a December ‘23 trip to Eastern Europe. After walking 70 miles in various weather conditions like rain, sleet, snow, slush, and below-freezing temps, I could not be more pleased with the overall performance. My feet stayed dry and warm. These fit my feet well…I never spend more than $100 for a pair of shoes but wanted to ensure comfort on my trip. Worth every cent."
