From Backcountry.com:
"The Merrell Men's Moab GTX XCR Shoe's Gore-Tex gasket and waterproof nubuck leather in the upper keep your feet dry when the trail spends miles criss-crossing creeks, or you get stuck in a freak storm. Gore-Tex XCR also offers excellent breathability that combines with mesh in the Moab GTX XCR's uppers and tongue to enhance ventilation, which you'll prostrate yourself in thanks for when the mercury rises beyond civilized temperatures. Merrell added a rubber toe bumper, heel counter, and Vibram's Multi-Sport Plus outsole to provide the protection, support and traction you need to remain as agile as an ocelot on the hunt."

"This is a follow up to my earlier review, to point out a few significant observations based on significantly more use.

On the positive side, the soles, lacing, and shoe materials are physically intact for the most part and have worn well for the most part."

"Great outdoor style tennis shoe! Gore-Tex makes it the legendary 'waterproof, but warm' but that is what it's known for. I use this shoe hiking, x-country running, biking, and general outdoor wear and have never had a blister in the 100's of miles I've worn them! Have not one complaint about this shoe."

"Cons:
- I wore these shoes daily for a couple months until the extra wide toe box started to squeeze together where the laces loop back up and created a fold in the material which rubbed on the tops of my big toes and hurt to the point that I couldn't wear them daily."

"Maybe mine are lemons, but, I bought a pair of these Merrell hiking shoes while on vacation in Maine last August and they have totally fallen apart with only approximately 3 months of what I would consider "light" use.

The uppers of both shoes are worn out and look like shoes with many years use."

"A great lightweight hiking/trail shoe. these replaced a somewhat heavier and sturdier Merrell gore-tex shoe, the Chameleon, which were very worn from years of use. i use these primarily for walking and training with no pack or a light pack; i would recommend a sturdier, more substantial shoe for training or hiking with a heavy pack."

"I bought these shoes out of mostly frustration from most boots I had had. I have a problem with my Achilles tendon and just about every backpack boot and hiking boot no matter how comfortable they felt at first, I would be done after about ten miles or so."
