The other specs were checked on 19 October 2026 against Alpinetrek (Merrell Moab Speed 2 Mid GTX) and Alpinetrek (Salewa Pedroc 2 Mid PTX). "Not stated" means the source does not mention it, not that the shoe lacks it. List prices are the full price shown by that source, not a sale price; where sources disagree we show none.
