YMC x Merrell Moab 2 Slide

YMC Gives the Moab a Hairy Suede Coat

YMC and Merrell return to the Moab 2 Slide with a richer, more tactile finish. Dark Walnut and Black versions use premium hairy suede across the upper, giving the practical slip-on the soft texture of a winter wardrobe piece. The low profile stays easy to wear, while the darker palette lets the material carry the design.

Trail Protection Survives the Open Heel

A black rubber toe cap wraps the front where a casual mule is most likely to get scuffed. Underfoot, Merrell's Air Cushion absorbs impact at the heel and helps steady each step, while a soft leather footbed cover improves the feel against the foot. Those details keep the open-back shoe connected to the Moab family's outdoor roots.

Recycled Rubber Handles Wet Ground

The Vibram Ecostep Recycle outsole contains 30 percent recycled rubber and is designed to maintain traction on wet and dry surfaces. That gives the collaboration a credible city-to-trail role instead of relying on rugged styling alone. The YMC x Merrell Moab 2 Slide costs $150 and is available now through YMC in both colorways. It is a simple collaboration with a clear division of labor: YMC brings the warm, understated material treatment, and Merrell supplies the protective toe, cushioned heel, and all-weather footing.
