FAQs

Is the Agility Peak 5 good for ultra-marathons?

Yes, its combination of FloatPro cushioning and the protective rock plate is specifically engineered for comfort over long, multi-hour efforts.

Can these be used on the road?

While they can be worn on pavement, they are optimized for trails; the specialized tread will wear down faster if used primarily on asphalt.

How heavy are these shoes?

The Agility Peak 5 is designed to be lightweight, weighing in at approximately 300 grams (10.6 ounces) per shoe.

Do they provide stability on technical terrain?

Yes, the external rear heel lock and the wider base platform provide excellent stability for navigating uneven trails.

How should I clean the white version?

Use a gentle soap solution and a soft cloth to spot clean, then allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Heel slippage while running

Adjust the laces using a runner's loop (lock lacing) technique to further secure the heel against the sculpted cup.

Accumulated dirt in mesh

Allow the mud to dry completely before brushing it off with a soft brush; do not scrub with heavy force.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Merrell Agility Peak 5 trainers, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of mesh, avoid washing these in a machine, as it can compromise the structural integrity of the overlays. Instead, clean the shoes by hand using lukewarm water and a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud and debris. Air dry them naturally in a shaded area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the midsole foam. For compatibility, ensure you have the correct sizing—this model typically runs true to size, but consider wearing the specific technical socks you plan to use for running to verify the fit is secure through the sculpted heel cup.
