Merrell Thermo Akita Mid Waterproof Boots stand out as warm, waterproof winter hikers that work well for wet, cold conditions and still feel comfortable after a short break in. The boots are described as keeping feet warm and dry for hours on muddy fall hikes, and the price under $50 shipped makes the deal feel especially strong. Fit runs tricky, though, with medium width reported as narrower than usual and several sizing notes pointing to going up half a size. The wide option and quick break in help, making this a practical cold weather pick if sizing is chosen carefully.

Common Questions (3)

  • The Medium width runs narrower than usual, and the style appears to fit narrow enough that some buyers had to return their normal size. Going up about half a size is a practical fix, and the Wide option is the safer choice if you usually need roomier Merrell hikers.

  • They can feel uncomfortable at first, but they break in quickly and become comfortable after a few wears. One fit report says a usual 10W fit fine and felt comfortable after the first walk, while another says the initial sole discomfort disappeared after about a month.

  • They keep feet warm and dry for hours in wet, muddy PNW fall conditions, making them suitable for cold-weather hiking. They can also be used outside winter; one referenced use case was 80-degree weather during a 3-mile run and 5-mile hike without hot feet.

Noo. I saw they have wide in these. All the Merrell deals I saw were just medium so this is what drew me in. Damn
They may have a wide size, but my comment is that the Medium width shoes in this style run narrower than usual.

I suspect that if the medium is more narrow then the wide will also be more narrow that was all.

I saw some guy talk about using these in 80 degree and his feet didn't get hot from 3 mile run and 5 mile hike. Anyone who owns can these be used outside winter?
If somebody ran 3 miles in any hikers on purpose, I'm not trusting his opinion on anything. My waterproof Moabs don't get too hot or sweaty for me, but I only wear them in cool weather, and I always wear wool-blend socks in cool weather, which help tremendously.

I needed some new winter boots, my old ones are not as waterproof as they once were. Ordered in my size and half size up as people suggested and I'll return whichever doesn't fit. Thanks OP.

Right in the description:With waterproof coated leather, a waterproof membrane, and 200g of warm insulation, you can depend on this cold-weather boot to protect against the elements this season.
I think what the poster you responded to was asking is if these could be used outside of winter, as in other seasons. Not if you could wear them outside during winter.

Anyone got cancellation to the order shipped to California? I don't see anything mentioned on their website that they can't ship their shoes to CA, but I got a cancellation email. Am I the only one?
