Redefining Outdoor Culture with the Merrell Moab 2 Siren x Gramicci
In October, 2025, two legends of outdoor exploration came together to launch something truly special: the Merrell Moab 2 Siren x Gramicci, arriving in two distinct colorways - Dark Earth and Citron.
This collaboration infuses the iconic Moab silhouette with a reinterpreted Siren Web upper, pairing Merrell’s trusted comfort and traction with Gramicci’s climbing-inspired design ethos. Built on the proven performance of the Moab 2 midsole and outsole, the result is a versatile shoe that transitions seamlessly from trail to rock face to city street - built for those who see the outdoors not as a destination, but as a way of life.
Two Brands. One Shared Spirit of Exploration
Founded just a year apart - Merrell in 1981 and Gramicci in 1982, both brands helped define what outdoor adventure looks like.
Gramicci was born in California’s climbing counterculture, where innovation was driven by necessity and creativity. The brand’s movement-first designs, like the gusseted short and integrated webbing belt, revolutionised outdoor apparel, later inspiring streetwear scenes from California to Tokyo.
Merrell, meanwhile, has always stood for one simple truth: the power of being outside. The Moab became the world’s best-selling hiking boot and a global symbol for comfort, durability, and exploration.
Together, Merrell and Gramicci honor these legacies while pushing outdoor culture forward - celebrating freedom, discovery, and the moments that connect us with nature and to each other.
Built for Movement, Designed for Today
“Exploring outside has always been about movement, freedom, and discovery, whether on the trail, the rock face, or the city,” said Richard McLeod, Chief Marketing Officer at Merrell. “Partnering with Gramicci, a brand that has shaped outdoor culture for nearly 45 years, allowed us to create something that celebrates our heritage while redefining what an outdoor icon can look like today.”
“Gramicci was born from the climbing counterculture of California, where every design detail was about evolving movement and freedom,” added Stephan Wendler, Global Creative Director at Gramicci. “This partnership merges our climbing roots with Merrell’s hiking legacy, connecting with the raw, messy, and real side of the outdoors.”
The Merrell Moab 2 Siren x Gramicci isn’t just a collaboration, it’s a conversation between two brands that have always believed in motion. A reminder that exploration doesn’t stop where the trail ends, and that the spirit of adventure can live anywhere you take it.
