Product Information
Full details
The Merrell SpeedArc Matis is designed for the modern hiker who values versatility, offering a hybrid design that performs equally well on urban streets and rugged trails. This athletic fast-hiking sneaker prioritizes propulsion and underfoot comfort, making it an excellent choice for active individuals seeking a seamless transition between environments. While it excels in agility and comfort, users should note that as a low-profile athletic sneaker, it may offer less ankle support than traditional high-cut hiking boots for technical, uneven terrain.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Merrell SpeedArc Matis is designed for breathability and agility; check the specific product label for any water-resistant coatings, but generally, these are intended for dry to mixed conditions.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While they feature athletic construction, they are specifically optimized for hiking. Running long distances on pavement may wear the outsole tread faster than expected.
How should I clean the exterior?
Use a soft brush to remove dirt and a damp cloth with mild detergent for deeper cleaning. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Is the sizing true to size?
They generally fit true to size. If you plan to wear thick wool hiking socks, some users prefer to go up a half-size for extra room.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the standard insoles in the Merrell SpeedArc Matis can be removed if you prefer to use custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing tension, specifically at the midfoot area, to ensure a secure lockdown; consider swapping to a performance insole if you require higher arch support.
Accumulation of trail debris inside
Consider wearing gaiters when hiking on loose, sandy, or dusty trails to prevent debris from entering the low-cut opening.
Outsole losing traction in mud
While efficient on dry and packed trails, the tread is optimized for versatility; if you encounter significant mud, ensure the outsoles are cleared regularly of caked-on dirt to maintain grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Merrell SpeedArc Matis, start by ensuring a proper fit; because this is an athletic-style hiking shoe, it should feel snug but not restrictive around the midfoot.
Care Instructions:
- Routine Cleaning: After a trail hike, remove loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush.
- Stain Removal: Use a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains on the exterior materials. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can warp materials and compromise cushioning integrity.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup and potential odor issues.
