Product Information
Full details
The Merrell SpeedArc Matis is an athletic fast-hiking sneaker designed for women who need a versatile shoe that transitions effortlessly from city streets to challenging off-road trails. Its primary benefit is a highly engineered propulsion system that keeps you moving forward with minimal effort; however, users should note that the specialized athletic design may offer less ankle support than traditional, heavier-duty leather hiking boots.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Merrell SpeedArc Matis features performance athletic materials, but it is not specifically categorized as a waterproof model. It is best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions.
Can I use these for trail running?
Yes, the athletic, lightweight design makes them suitable for light trail running, though they are primarily optimized for fast-hiking.
How do I choose the right size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. We recommend choosing your usual size, but allowing for a small amount of space in the toe box for comfort during downhill sections.
Are they suitable for orthotic insoles?
The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if necessary.
What is the best way to clean the green fabric?
Use a soft nylon brush to gently scrub away dried dirt, followed by a light wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too snug after extended wear
Feet often swell during hikes; ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking hiking socks and consider loosening the laces slightly mid-hike.
Reduced traction on slick surfaces
Ensure the tread is clear of mud or debris; a buildup of packed dirt can significantly reduce the grip of any hiking shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell SpeedArc Matis, follow these care guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear them on shorter walks before attempting long-distance hikes to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after each use. If they get muddy, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the adhesives and performance fabrics.
- Drying: Air dry in a cool, shaded area. Never use a tumble dryer or place the shoes near direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can cause the materials to warp.
- Storage: Keep in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading and rubber degradation.
