FAQs
What is the main advantage of the Agility Peak 6?

Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the Vibram® Megagrip outsole is clean. Minor wear on the lugs can also affect grip; consider replacing the shoes if significantly worn.
Foot fatigue on long runs
Verify the lacing is appropriate for your foot and the terrain. If the issue persists, consider if aftermarket insoles offering more support are needed for your foot type.
Discomfort from rocks or roots
Ensure the shoes are tied correctly. The forefoot rock plate provides protection, but extreme impacts may still be felt; adjust stride and path where possible.
Shoes feel stiff or lack flexibility
Allow for a break-in period of 20-30 miles. The FlexConnect™ technology and midsole will become more flexible with use.

- Excellent stability for technical trails.
- Superior traction on diverse surfaces.
- Responsive cushioning for long-distance comfort.
- Effective rock protection for added security.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Merrell Agility Peak 6 is designed for immediate use out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied securely for a snug fit, adjusting to your comfort level without being too tight to restrict circulation.
Compatibility: This is a neutral trail running shoe, compatible with most foot types. For runners who require specific overpronation support, consider using aftermarket insoles tailored to your needs. It is best suited for trail running and general outdoor hiking on rugged terrain.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Agility Peak 6:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with cold water and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or dryers, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing them in damp conditions.
