Merrell Hiking Shoes, Trail Runners, and More Are Up to 50% Off During the Brand's Massive Semi-annual Sale (2024)

The first time that I laced up a pair of Merrell hiking shoes, it was 2017 and I was preparing to adventure through the rough terrain of the Rocky Mountains. On that trip, I wore the brand’s MQM hiking sneakers during trail runs and the classic Moab hiking boots as I took on my first “14er” (a mountain that’s 14,000 feet above sea level) hike. My feet felt secure and comfortable through every step and, bonus points, I walked away without a single blister.

Since that trip, I’ve tested plenty of Merrell shoes and gear, and I’ve continued to be blown away by the quality, durability, and functionality of the brand's products. I’m also impressed by its sustainability efforts, as most of the boots now feature primarily recycled materials. In short: I’m a longtime fan and want everyone to experience the comfort, support, and sturdiness that comes with a pair of Merrells.

Luckily, that dream can be a reality as the brand has kicked off its Semi-Annual Sale. Now through March 20, more than 600 products are marked down up to 50 percent off — and I couldn’t wait to dive in. I (gladly) took on the task of sifting through the site in order to curate a list of the 54 best deals for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts. Below you'll find some of my tried and true favorites, as well as options with outstanding shopper reviews that deserve a spot in your repertoire.

Merrell Women's MQM 3 Hiking Shoes

The third generation of the aforementioned MQM hiking shoe (a.k.a. my entry into the brand) is a great staple for any outdoor enthusiast. The acronym stands for “moving quickly in the mountains” and, in my experience, the shoes certainly help you do just that; they're super stable, have a nice locked-in fit, and have enough traction on the soles to help you feel confident in any terrain. These multi-functional shoes make great trail runners and lightweight hikers, and right now, you can snag it at a major discount.

Merrell Women's Bristol Chelsea Boots

Yes, Merrell makes lifestyle footwear, too. I’m a Chelsea Boot lover, so when Merrell came out with its own iteration of the classic shoes, I couldn’t wait to give them a try. The coolest thing about these boots is that, while they look like stylish street shoes, they're technically “hiking ready” thanks to their grippy, durable soles. While I haven’t personally worn this boot on the trails, I have worn them out and about, and can say that they're fantastic in various weather conditions (think: rain and snow) — not to mention that they're incredibly comfortable. And right now, they're a sweet $65 off.

Merrell Women's Bravada 2 Thermo Mid Waterproof Boots

Speaking of weather-ready boots, if you’re in the market for hiking shoes that are suited for cold conditions, look no further than the Bravada 2s. They're waterproof, insulated, fleece-lined, and truly cozy. Not to mention that they have great shock absorption and that the rubber soles are super durable and grippy, two features that are especially ideal for snowy conditions. During Merrell’s Semi-Annual Sale, you can score these quintessential winter boots for 40 percent off.

Merrell Women's Shiloh II Warm Boots

Another pair of lifestyle shoes that I adore: The second generation of the Shiloh boots are equal parts stylish and comfortable. Although these boots have a slight heel, it won’t leave your feet in pain, even after hours of wear. While, no, I wouldn’t take my Shilohs out on the trails, I still consider them awesome everyday boots that have the same level of durability and grip as their hiking counterparts. And now is the perfect time to see for yourself as the fall-winter boots are half off during the Merrell sale event.

Merrell Women's Hut Moc 2 Packable Shoes

Talk about your ultimate travel shoes. The Merrell Hut Moc 2 Packable Shoes feature a zipper on the uppers so you can literally zip a pair together when packing, making it a breeze to take them on the go. They also feature a space for a carabiner to hook them onto your backpack or carry-on. These unique shoes are great for walking, running errands, and lounging around in like slippers. And, they’re currently available at a 44 percent discount.
