FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Speedarc Matis uses a breathable mesh upper designed for airflow, meaning they are not waterproof and will allow water to pass through if submerged.

Can I use these for long-distance hiking?

Yes, they are suitable for day hiking and long-distance treks on established trails, provided you do not require specialized stiff-sole support for heavy packs.

How should I clean the Vibram sole?

Use a hose or a brush with warm water to clear mud and debris from the lugs after your hike.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Merrell generally follows standard sizing, but it is recommended to leave about a thumb's width of space in the toe box for comfort during downhill sections.

What is the primary use for this footwear?

They are categorized as hiking shoes, built for performance, traction, and comfort on various outdoor terrains.

Troubleshooting

Reduced traction on slippery surfaces

Clean the tread with a stiff brush to remove caked-on mud and debris that may be obstructing the grip.

Feeling of discomfort after long wear

Check your lacing tension to ensure it isn't causing pressure points and confirm you are wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Mesh appearing dirty or stained

Use mild soap and a soft cloth to gently clean the mesh; avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent fabric fraying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior grip thanks to Vibram Megagrip technology
  • Highly breathable upper keeps feet comfortable in warm conditions
  • Lightweight construction reduces fatigue on long walks
  • Reliable and functional design for various outdoor activities

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme high-altitude or technical climbing
  • Lacks the heavy-duty ankle support of high-cut hiking boots
  • Mesh material may allow water ingress in deep puddles or heavy rain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are ready-to-wear performance shoes, no technical setup is required. To maintain the life of your Merrell footwear, it is essential to clean them after every muddy or dusty outing. Use a soft brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth for spot cleaning. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents that can degrade the mesh upper. Always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, as high heat can warp the TPU elements and adhesive bonds. Check the sole periodically for embedded stones that could affect traction.
