FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are designed with breathable mesh and are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the trainers feature a removable EVA footbed, allowing for custom orthotics or easier cleaning.
What type of surfaces is the outsole best for?
The Merrell sticky rubber outsole is designed for optimal traction on a variety of surfaces, including urban pavements, trails, and mixed terrain.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to Merrell's sizing chart and consider trying them on. The UK size 12 is specified for this variant, and it's advisable to check fit in person if possible.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede components. Hand washing and air drying are the preferred methods for cleaning.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is a combination of breathable mesh, suede, and synthetic elements for a balance of comfort, support, and style.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the laces are loosened before putting on the shoes. If still tight, consider if this is the correct size or if the break-in period is needed.
Slight discomfort on the heel
The heel pull tab and padded collar are designed for comfort, but some break-in time may be required. Wear them for short periods initially.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole offers good traction, wet surfaces can be inherently slippery. Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris for optimal grip.
Suede material appears dirty
Gently brush away dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, and allow to air dry.
