FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable and durable, their design is optimized for trail performance. They can be worn casually, but their robust features are best utilized on outdoor terrain.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without excessive slipping.
Can I use these for running?
Yes, they are designed as trail trainers, suitable for trail running due to their lightweight, stable, and grippy nature.
How long does the GORE-TEX® waterproofing last?
The GORE-TEX® membrane is highly durable. With proper care, it should maintain its waterproof and breathable properties for the lifespan of the shoe.
Are these shoes true to size?
Merrell sizing is generally consistent, but individual foot shapes vary. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible.
What is the benefit of the FloatPro™ Foam Midsole?
FloatPro™ Foam provides a lightweight yet durable cushioning system designed for comfort and long-lasting performance on the trail, reducing foot fatigue.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces can be replaced with standard trainer laces if they become worn or damaged.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX®
Check if water is entering from the top of the shoe. Ensure laces are tied snugly. The GORE-TEX® membrane itself may be compromised if there is a tear; inspect carefully.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
Clean the Vibram® outsole of mud, debris, or oil. Worn-out lugs can reduce traction; consider replacement if significantly degraded.
Odour persists after cleaning
While cleansport NXT™ helps, strong odours may require specific shoe deodorizers or airing out in direct sunlight (briefly) for natural disinfection.
Discomfort or hot spots during wear
Ensure the correct size and width. Try adjusting lacing techniques or using different socks. Allow a break-in period for the shoe to mold to your foot.
