FAQs
Are the Merrell Agility Peak 5 suitable for road running?
These trainers are specifically designed for technical trail running. While they can be used on roads for short distances, their aggressive tread and support features are optimized for off-road performance and may feel less comfortable or wear down faster on hard surfaces.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the Merrell sizing chart and measure your foot length. Ensure there is a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug around the heel and midfoot, with enough room in the forefoot for natural toe splay.
How do I clean mud off the shoes?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher mud, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Please refer to the official Merrell warranty policy for specific details on duration and coverage, as this can vary by region and retailer.
Can I use these for hiking as well as running?
Yes, the Merrell Agility Peak 5's robust design, excellent grip, and comfort make them highly suitable for hiking on challenging terrain in addition to trail running.
What makes the Agility Peak 5 different from other trail shoes?
The Agility Peak 5 is engineered for rapid changes in direction and vertical movement on obstacle-heavy trails, offering a blend of agility, protection, and traction that distinguishes it for technical performance.
Troubleshooting
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For specific wet conditions, consider your lacing technique for maximum lockdown.
Discomfort or hot spots during runs
Verify the lacing is appropriate and not too tight in specific areas. Ensure you have the correct size and consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. A short break-in period may be necessary.
Excessive water absorption in wet conditions
These trainers are designed for breathability and may absorb some water on very wet trails. If waterproofness is critical, consider a GORE-TEX version of Merrell trail shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Merrell Agility Peak 5 comes ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the fit is snug but comfortable, with no excessive pressure points. Lace them appropriately for your desired level of support.
Compatibility: These trainers are optimized for trail running and hiking. While they can be worn for general outdoor activities, their aggressive tread and support features are best utilized on natural terrain like dirt paths, rocky ascents, and forest trails. They are not designed for optimal performance on paved roads or indoor gym surfaces.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and debris with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight when not in use.
