Merrell Moab Speed 2 Coyote 9.5 M

The best summit days start with a quick pace — one where the shoe underfoot feels athletic enough to move fast on smooth trail but planted enough to handle whatever the mountain puts in the way. The Merrell Moab Speed 2 Hiking Shoe is built precisely for that rhythm, marrying the lightweight cushion and agility of a trail runner with the stability and protection the Moab platform has delivered for decades. The FloatPro Foam midsole delivers a generous stack of shock absorption that keeps legs fresher over long approaches, while the FlexPlate insert adds lateral stability and rock protection underfoot without eliminating the forefoot flex that makes climbing feel natural. A reinforced nylon ripstop and TPU upper handles abrasion from rocky terrain while staying breathable enough for warm-weather efforts, and a gusseted tongue keeps trail debris where it belongs — outside the shoe. The Vibram TC5+ outsole with multi-directional lugs grips soft earth, dirty rock, and everything between with reliable confidence. At just over 12 ounces, the Moab Speed 2 hits a weight class that makes the uphill feel easier and the miles feel shorter.
