The Merrell Black Friday deals abound, which is great news all around. But if you want to squeeze the most juice out of this outdoorsy fruit, you want to set your sights on the Moab boots. The Moab series has been the top dog of the hiking trail for eons, ever since it was first introduced in 1982. More than forty years on (and only three iterations in), it still stands at the peak thanks to its durability, comfort, quality, and classic gorp-y style. We love the boots so much that we had to give it the crown for the best budget hiking boot…and that was at full price.
Thanks to the shower of sales raining down for Black Friday, the so-called Mother of All Boots has outdone even itself. Now, you can nab the uber popular boots for nearly 40% off. YEAH. We know. Spotting hiking boots this good for under $100 is rarer than spotting Big Foot (speaking of which, Merrell does offer its boots in wide widths).
You know that sweet spot of form and function we’re always talking about? Merrell’s shoes nail it with more flavor—more unabashed freakiness—than the vast majority of their counterparts. Need a pair of boots that looks just as killer with zip-off cargos as it does roughed-up jorts? The Merrell Moab 3 is it. If it helps, feel free to think of it as the anti-Black Friday of shoe silhouettes; the post-Thanksgiving savings event is fleeting by nature, but Merrell’s hero product is forever cool.
Whether you’re a real hiker or a poseur, the massive discount applies to everyone. That said, we’re not sure exactly how long this Merrell Black Friday sale last, so you’d better hop to it.
