Critics & buyers

What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- FloatPro foam midsole delivers genuine underfoot cushioning with enough stability to handle moderate trail terrain
- TC5+ Vibram outsole with 4 mm lugs provides strong grip on dry and mixed surfaces
- Durable upper combining engineered mesh, ripstop nylon, and TPU overlays resists abrasion well
Reviewers push back
- Wet-terrain traction is only average — reviewers flag slippery performance on wet rock or mud
- Fit runs slightly wide; narrow-footed wearers must cinch laces hard and may still feel excess room
- Stock insole is considered thin and underwhelming, often benefiting from an aftermarket replacement
Reviewers broadly agree the Moab Speed 2 is a comfortable, well-built hiking shoe that excels on moderate trails but is not a replacement for heavier, more protective footwear on demanding terrain.
Sizing guidance divides reviewers: one reviewer calls them true-to-size while two others advise sizing up, particularly to protect toes on long descents
