These Merrell hiking boots feature a rich full-grain leather construction and are paired with the adventure-ready Vibram Megagrip outsoles to make sure no matter the terrain you set out on, you’ll always have the grip to do so. To complement the leather, these boots are integrated with an impermeable membrane, known as M Select Dry, which helps keep out water while also allowing moisture to escape from the inside of your boots. Vintage metal D-rings and metal hooks are secured with an aesthetically pleasing pop from the red laces, while the bellows tongue keeps Mother Nature out of your boots. To further enhance your footing, the air cushioning in the heel helps absorb shock during long hikes or everyday wear. At the same time, the contoured insole provides excellent support for improved flexibility.
“Like walking on a cloud,” a shopper stated. “This is quite possibly the best shoe I have ever worn. I'm in residential construction so these bad boys have been taking a beating…with that being said, they have done nothing but impress me. The comfort is unmatched. I honestly prefer having these on in comparison to being barefoot. The support is great, and the waterproofing is unbeatable.”
“The perfect everyday boot” is how another buyer described them. “This boot is perfect for an everyday run around town in good or bad weather. I love it so much that I just ordered my second pair in a different color.” They also added, “I really like it because it's lightweight, waterproof in rain or snow, it's got a grippy sole, and it's just a really good-looking boot.”
Whether you're shopping for an outdoorsman or you're looking for your next great pair of hiking boots, Merrell’s Ontario Mid Waterproof Hiking Boots are more than worth a shot, especially at this price. The brand's Black Friday sale only runs until Dec. 2, so grab yours today before the price shoots back up.
