FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Merrell Jungle Moc features a full grain leather upper, which offers some natural water resistance. However, they are not fully waterproof. For wet conditions, we recommend treating them with a waterproof spray designed for leather.

Can I use these for serious hiking?

These shoes are designed for light trails, casual walks, and everyday wear, offering comfort and stability. For serious hiking or rugged, uneven terrain, we recommend a dedicated hiking boot with greater ankle support and a more aggressive tread.

How do I choose the correct size?

We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. Merrell shoes generally run true to size, but individual foot shapes vary. Wear the type of socks you typically would with these shoes when trying them on.

Do they offer good arch support?

The Jungle Moc features a lightweight EVA foam midsole and Merrell Air Cushion in the heel which contribute to overall foot comfort and support. The 50% recycled EVA foam insole also provides additional cushioning. For specific arch support needs, you may consider adding custom orthotics.

How should I clean the outsole?

To clean the Merrell sticky rubber outsole, use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) and water to scrub away dirt, mud, and debris. This helps maintain optimal traction.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the 50% recycled EVA foam insole is typically removable, which can be helpful for airing out the shoes, cleaning, or inserting custom orthotics if needed.

What is 'double stretch gore'?

Double stretch gore refers to the elasticated panels on either side of the shoe's opening. These panels stretch, allowing for easy slip-on and removal, while also helping the shoe conform comfortably to your foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. New leather shoes may require a short break-in period; wear them for short durations initially. If discomfort persists, consider checking your size.

Slipping on certain surfaces

While the Merrell sticky rubber outsole provides good traction, no shoe is slip-proof. Be cautious on extremely wet, icy, or oily surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to remove accumulated dirt or mud which can reduce grip.

Foot odor developing

Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Remove the 50% recycled EVA foam insole to let it dry separately. Use shoe deodorizers, cedar inserts, or a sprinkle of baking soda to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

Leather appears dull or dry

Clean the full grain leather upper with a soft, damp cloth, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner. This will restore moisture, shine, and protect the material.

Care

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Gently wipe the full grain leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions.
  2. Conditioning: To maintain the leather's suppleness and prevent cracking, apply a quality leather conditioner periodically.
  3. Drying: If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
  4. Odor Control: Remove insoles occasionally to air out. Use shoe deodorizers or baking soda inside the shoes to absorb moisture and combat odors.
  5. Outsole: Periodically check the Merrell sticky rubber outsole for embedded debris and clean it to maintain optimal traction.
