Merrell MOAB 3 6" Tactical Zip Waterproof Boots - Black
Black boots representing a tactical version of one of the most recognisable outdoor footwear lines from Merrell. The model was designed for long-term use during duty, field work and outdoor activities that require stable, comfortable and durable footwear.
The construction combines a waterproof upper, a mid-cut height that provides ankle protection, a side zipper and a cushioning Vibram TC5+ outsole with a grippy tread. The off-road character of the footwear allows for free movement on hard surfaces, forest paths and uneven ground.
waterproof upper with a higher-cut construction
The upper is made of high-quality leather and mesh fabric. The waterproof membrane used limits water penetration into the inside of the boot while also allowing some moisture to escape during use.
Leather elements increase the upper's resistance to scuffs, impacts and contact with obstacles. Mesh panels support ventilation, which matters during long marches and intensive field work.
The raised, mid-cut upper covers the ankle area and provides additional support while walking. This construction helps reduce accidental foot movement inside the boot while maintaining the freedom of movement needed for fast marching, work and overcoming obstacles.
reinforced toe and heel
The front part of the boot is protected by a rubber panel resistant to impacts and abrasion. It protects the toes from contact with stones, roots and other obstacles.
The reinforcement used in the rear part of the upper protects the heel and increases the durability of the footwear in an area particularly exposed to wear. Combined with the raised upper, it provides additional foot protection during work and outdoor activities.
grippy Vibram TC5+ outsole
Grip is provided by the Vibram TC5+ outsole. The rubber compound used ensures traction on various types of surfaces. The varied tread pattern improves contact with the ground, supports stability on uneven terrain and helps remove small stones and dirt from the outsole area.
Super Rebound Compound midsole, Merrell Air Cushion cushioning
The heel features Merrell Air Cushion technology, which absorbs some of the shocks generated when the foot contacts the ground. Combined with a midsole made of Super Rebound Compound foam, this solution improves walking comfort, reduces strain during marching and supports step stability.
The sole uses a moulded nylon arch shank. This element reinforces the construction in the midfoot area, increases midfoot stability and helps keep the foot in the correct position while walking.
Comfortbase insole, mesh lining
Fit and support are provided by a removable, contoured Comfortbase insole. Its shape supports the foot along its full length and helps distribute pressure evenly while walking. The option to remove the insole makes cleaning, drying and replacement easier.
The inside of the boot is finished with a breathable mesh lining that supports air circulation and improves comfort during prolonged wear.
Cleansport NXT - control of unpleasant odours
The inner materials are made using Cleansport NXT technology, which supports natural odour control. The solution used relies on a biological process that limits the formation of unpleasant odours during use of the footwear.
classic lacing and waterproof zipper
The boots are equipped with a classic lacing system and a waterproof zipper placed on the medial side of the upper. Laces allow precise adjustment of tension in individual zones of the boot to match the shape of the foot. The side zipper combined with a textile loop speeds up putting the footwear on and taking it off.

Vibram TC5+ is a type of rubber sole characterized by very good traction and grip, both on wet and dry surfaces. In addition, it protects the foot from uneven terrain and cushions any impact.
Comfortbase is a contoured, ergonomically designed insole that provides full heel support and flexibility in the midfoot area. It reduces foot and leg fatigue during prolonged wearing of shoes. With a system of channels and holes, it provides adequate ventilation.
Merrell Air Cushion is a midsole with extra air cushion that absorbs shock when walking while providing maximum support to the foot. This translates into greater comfort, control and stability needed for outdoor footwear.
Cleansport NXT is a technology that uses microorganisms to neutralize odors by naturally breaking down organic matter. Beneficial microorganisms are permanently fused to the fibers of the materials, where, when they come into contact with the organic material (sweat), they activate and produce enzymes that fight the bacteria responsible for the odor. This ecological process ensures a feeling of freshness and comfort even during the most intense activities.
Super Rebound Compound is a technology used in the shoe's midsole that provides adequate cushioning throughout and allows the foot to roll smoothly and resiliently.
