It is full of elevated updates on its traditional silhouettes including the Jungle Mocs, the [Moab](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moab-speed-2-gtx) Speed silhouette, and the Hydro Mocs to name a few. The seasonal designs start off with the Merrell Jungle Moc, which has a classic silhouette reminiscent of previous versions. The shoe is detailed with a woven upper to provide texture and give it a brand-new look. The Moab Speed sneaker has a street-centric approach starting with the durable GORE-TEX along the upper to withstand various terrains. It also rests on a Vibram outsole with branding decorating the shoe throughout. The Moab 2 Mesa has a refined silhouette, and the Speed Streak boasts a slip-on accessibility.
