FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for rocky terrain?
Yes, the Vibram MegaGrip outsole is specifically designed to provide superior traction on technical, rocky, and wet surfaces.
How do I maintain the leather?
Wipe down with a damp cloth after use and use a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner periodically.
Can I use these for daily walking?
Absolutely, the FloatPro foam midsole provides enough comfort for everyday wear in addition to trail use.
Is the waterproof membrane breathable?
The membrane is designed to allow moisture to escape, but it will be warmer than non-waterproof mesh alternatives.
Does it have a removable footbed?
Yes, the trainer features an EVA foam footbed that can be removed for cleaning or replacing with custom orthotics.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior is crafted from high-quality leather, complemented by synthetic performance components and recycled materials.
Troubleshooting
Water penetrating the shoe
Ensure the leather is treated with an appropriate waterproofing agent. If the shoe is old, the internal membrane may be compromised.
Developing an unpleasant odor
Remove the insoles to air out and clean the interior with a mild soap solution. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing again.
Stiff movement in the sole
The FlexPlate is designed for stability; break in the shoes on shorter, flat terrain before tackling steep or technical hikes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell trainers, avoid machine washing or aggressive brushing, which can damage the leather surface and the waterproof membrane.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe off mud and dirt using a soft brush or a damp cloth after every use.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can crack the leather or warp internal components.
- Maintenance: Periodically apply a leather-safe waterproofing conditioner to maintain the material's integrity and repel water effectively.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mold and ensure the Cleansport NXT treatment remains effective.
