White Mountaineering and Merrell 1TRL Reunite for Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX Collaboration

As someone who has spent years traversing the rugged landscapes of the Himalayas and the Alps, I can truly appreciate the practicality and style that the White Mountaineering x Merrell 1TRL Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX offers. The chunky Vibram soles and waterproof GORE-TEX uppers are a dream for any outdoor enthusiast, while the clean tonal colorway and subtle white-grey camo print make it a perfect addition to my urban wardrobe as well.


As a gaming enthusiast, here’s how I’d rephrase that information in the first person:

White Mountaineering and Merrell have teamed up once more for the Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX shoes. In contrast to their initial collaboration, the 2023 Wrapt Mid Waterproof Sneakers, this new partnership leans heavily on technology rather than drawing inspiration from classic hiking boot designs.

The Moab Speed 2 shoes, featuring robust Vibram soles and waterproof GORE-TEX uppers, are ideal for hiking trails. Yet, their sleek, harmonious color scheme allows a smooth adaptation to everyday wear too. A subtle white-grey camouflage pattern serves as the canvas for both collaborators’ logos on the quarter panels. The midsoles and quarter panels, with a light-to-dark gradient, draw attention towards the front of the shoe, suggesting a sense of progression. This versatile design makes it effortless to envision its use on either wet city streets or remote dirt tracks.

Apart from being the second joint venture for White Mountaineering and Merrell within a year, this partnership also represents the second overall creative reinterpretation of the Moab Speed 2 model. Last summer, it was transformed with a magical overhaul by “House of the Dragon,” following its initial release in February.

On September 14th, the collaboration between White Mountaineering and Merrell on the 1TRL Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX shoe will become available. You can purchase it from the White Mountaineering webstore or select Merrell retailers. The cost is approximately $231 USD, which converts to around ¥33,000 JPY.
