FAQs
Is the MTL SpeedArc Peak suitable for road running?
These shoes are specifically engineered for trail running. While they can handle road segments, the outsole and stability features are optimized for loose, technical dirt and rock trails.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the MTL SpeedArc Peak is designed as a unisex model to accommodate a wide range of foot shapes.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to gently spot-clean the upper, then let the shoes air dry naturally.
What is the primary difference between this and a standard hiking shoe?
The MTL SpeedArc Peak is a lightweight racing trainer focused on speed and agility, whereas a hiking shoe is generally heavier and built for load-bearing and long-distance comfort.
Can I replace the insole?
The internal cushioning is designed for the shoe's specific performance geometry. If you require custom orthotics, ensure they are low-profile to maintain the intended feel of the trainer.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort during the first run
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for your foot volume and verify that you are wearing technical, moisture-wicking socks to prevent friction.
Accumulated mud on the outsole
Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dried mud after it has hardened, ensuring the tread pattern is clear for maximum traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, verify your UK size fit with thin athletic socks before your first run. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or machine drying, as excessive heat can break down performance adhesives. After running in mud or debris, gently rinse the exterior with cool water and a soft brush, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources or intense sunlight to maintain the integrity of the foam and fabric components.
