FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The SpeedArc Matis is designed for breathability. While they can handle light dampness, they are not classified as fully waterproof.

Can I use these for long-distance backpacking?

They are ideal for fast hiking and day trips. For long-distance backpacking with heavy packs, you may prefer a boot with more rigid ankle and arch support.

How do I determine my size?

Merrell sizes are consistent with standard UK sizing. If you plan on wearing thick hiking socks, some users prefer to go up half a size.

What is the best way to clean them?

Use a soft brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth with mild soap for stubborn stains. Do not submerge them or use a washing machine.

Are these suitable for gym use?

Yes, their athletic design makes them quite versatile for various gym-based movements, provided the tread pattern offers the traction you need for your specific exercises.

Troubleshooting

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Try the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle.

Material build-up on the outsole

Use a stiff-bristled brush or a toothpick to clear mud or debris from the tread grooves to restore grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Seamless aesthetic transition from city to trail
  • High level of comfort for all-day wear
  • Responsive cushioning for improved propulsion
  • Lightweight construction reduces overall foot fatigue

Cons

  • Not suitable for technical rock climbing
  • Lacks the stiff support of traditional heavy-duty hiking boots
  • Best suited for light to moderate terrain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Merrell SpeedArc Matis shoes, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in: While comfortable out of the box, wear them around the house for a few hours before attempting a long hike to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: After trail use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. If mud is present, wipe clean with a damp cloth and air dry away from direct heat sources.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the synthetic components.
  4. Compatibility: These are designed for standard hiking socks. Avoid extra-thick wool socks if they make the fit too tight, as this can affect blood circulation and comfort.
