Full details
The Merrell Hydro Moc in Black is designed for active kids who spend time in and around water.

FAQs
Are these suitable for hiking?
While durable for casual wear, the Merrell Hydro Moc is primarily designed for water-based activities and general warm-weather play. They may not offer the specific support or protection required for technical hiking trails.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Merrell. Ensure there is a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose, especially around the heel and arch.
Can these be worn with socks?
These are designed to be worn barefoot for optimal comfort and quick-drying performance in wet conditions. Wearing socks is not recommended as it can impede drying and comfort.
What is the main advantage of the EVA construction?
The EVA construction makes the shoes incredibly lightweight, buoyant, and quick to dry, while also providing cushioning for comfort.
How do I clean off sand or mud?
Simply rinse the shoes under running water. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and a soft brush, then rinse again. Air dry away from direct heat.
What age group are these best suited for?
These are particularly well-suited for children due to their ease of use, durability in wet conditions, and comfortable, lightweight design.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff initially
Wear them around the house for a short period to break them in. The EVA material will soften with body heat and use.
Difficulty removing the shoe
Ensure the shoe is completely dry. If wet, the EVA can sometimes create a slight vacuum. Try wiggling the heel as you pull.
Slight odor after use
Rinse thoroughly with water and allow to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. You can also use a baking soda solution for odor absorption if needed.
