Product Information
Full details
The Merrell SpeedArc Matis is designed for active adult males who need a versatile hiking shoe that performs equally well on urban streets and rugged trails. Its primary benefit is a sophisticated construction that offers natural propulsion and high-level comfort, though users should note it is optimized for agile movement rather than heavy-duty backpacking or technical mountaineering.

FAQs
Is the SpeedArc Matis waterproof?
The product is designed for breathability and versatility, but it is not classified as waterproof. It is best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions.
Can I use these for long-distance backpacking?
These shoes are designed for athletic hiking and day trips. For heavy backpacking with a loaded pack, a more structured boot might provide more ankle support.
How do I determine the correct fit?
The SpeedArc Matis is available in standard UK sizes. We recommend measuring your foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and ensuring a thumb's width of space at the toes.
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can damage the propulsion structure and adhesives. Manual cleaning is preferred.
What kind of terrain is this shoe best for?
It performs best on light trails, gravel paths, and paved urban environments.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort or pressure points during use
Ensure your lacing is not too tight and verify that you are wearing the appropriate moisture-wicking athletic socks.
Accumulated mud affecting traction
Use a stiff-bristle brush to clear debris from the lugs on the outsole to restore grip.
Laces coming undone frequently
Consider a double-knot or replacing with non-slip athletic laces if the factory laces do not hold tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell SpeedArc Matis hiking shoes, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: While athletic, wear them for shorter walks to allow the material to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt after use with a soft-bristled brush. Use lukewarm water for deep cleaning; avoid harsh detergents that may degrade materials.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp or crack the specialized components.
- Compatibility: Designed for standard athletic socks; avoid overly thick wool socks to prevent excessive tightness in the forefoot.
