What shoppers need to know
- Colorway: 1
- Upper: synthetic mesh, leather
- Midsole: Super Rebound Compound, Air Cushion
- Outsole: Vibram TC5+ Rubber
Moab 3 Tactical is very similar to the beloved Moab 3. Both shoes feature the same basic upper design, with leather overlays on a synthetic mesh base and the same midsole setup, Super Rebound Compound cushioning, an air cushion heel and a molded nylon shank. The midsole provides good shock absorption and support; It’s not overly plush or soft, but it will protect your feet from rough ground. Both shoes also feature a lugged Vibram rubber outsole, the gold standard for off-road traction.
So what’s the difference? Well, first of all, there’s the colorway: the Tactical’s all-black look makes it suitable for wearing with law enforcement uniforms and other work outfits. The Tactical’s upper also has waterproof treatment (likely a DWR coating), which the regular Moab lacks. Finally, the Tactical also features an anti-odor treatment on the footbed – a welcome addition for those who will be spending long hours wearing these shoes for work.
