Our take on the Merrell Women's Speed Solo Mid Waterproof

The Merrell Women's Speed Solo Mid Waterproof is a mid-cut hiking boot built for stability on mixed terrain. It pairs a suede and mesh upper with a waterproof membrane, a breathable recycled mesh lining, a rubber toe cap and a Vibram EcoStep outsole made with 30% recycled rubber. At 700 g it is on the heavier side for a women's mid boot, which suits loaded day hikes more than fast trail runs. Its only recorded daily price is $69.87, so there is no meaningful range to compare against yet.

Pros
  • Waterproof suede and mesh upper keeps feet dry in rain and shallow puddles
  • Vibram EcoStep outsole with 30% recycled rubber grips a range of surfaces
  • Over-the-ankle cut adds stability and protects the ankle on rough ground
  • Rubber toe cap guards against rocks and roots
  • Recycled mesh lining breathes better than a solid waterproof bootie
  • Traditional lace closure lets you tune fit along the whole foot
Cons
  • 700 g per boot is heavy for long days or fast hiking
  • Stability-focused build is stiff and takes break-in time
  • No APMA seal, so it is not a podiatrist-endorsed option
  • Waterproof membrane reduces breathability in hot weather
  • Only one price point recorded so far, so value is hard to judge against its own history

Questions and answers

Is the Speed Solo Mid Waterproof worth it at $69.87?
At $69.87 it is a strong price for a waterproof boot with a Vibram outsole. That is the only price recorded so far, so there is no lower mark to wait for.
How does it compare with the Merrell Moab?
The Moab is lighter and softer underfoot, with a wider fit. The Speed Solo Mid is stiffer and more stability-oriented, which suits rougher ground but less so fast, light hiking.
Is it actually waterproof?
Yes. The suede and mesh upper has a waterproof membrane and the listing states waterproof weatherproofing. Waterproof boots still breathe less than unlined ones, so expect warmer feet in summer.
How heavy is it?
700 g per boot. That is heavy for a women's mid hiker, so it is better for steady day hikes with a pack than for fastpacking.
What is the shaft height and fit like?
It sits over the ankle for support and uses a traditional lace closure, so you can adjust tightness across the foot and ankle. The stability build runs fairly firm, so try your usual size first.
What is in the box?
One pair of boots. Insoles and laces come fitted; there are no extras such as a spare set of laces or a stuff sack.
Is the Merrell Women's Speed Solo Mid Waterproof at its lowest price?
The lowest price we've seen is $69.87 at REI on October 28.
