FAQs
Are the Merrell Hydro Mocs waterproof?
The Hydro Mocs are water-friendly and designed to get wet, but they are not fully waterproof. They allow water to drain and dry quickly.
Can I wear socks with Merrell Hydro Mocs?
While you can wear socks, the Hydro Mocs are generally designed to be worn barefoot for optimal comfort and quick drying.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the Merrell sizing chart. These are typically sized for adult UK shoe sizes. Ensure a snug but comfortable fit.
Are these suitable for hiking?
The Hydro Mocs are best suited for light trails, casual walks, and water-based activities. They do not offer the robust support or protection needed for serious hiking on uneven terrain.
How do the BLOOM™ algae affect the shoe?
BLOOM™ algae are used to create a more sustainable foam. This integration helps reduce reliance on petroleum-based materials without compromising the shoe's lightweight comfort and performance.
Can I machine wash the Hydro Mocs?
It is not recommended to machine wash the Hydro Mocs. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the warranty on Merrell Hydro Mocs?
Please refer to the retailer's or Merrell's official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.
Troubleshooting
Slight odor after use
Rinse with cool water and allow to air dry thoroughly. You can also try a mixture of baking soda and water to clean the interior.
Foot discomfort or lack of support
The Hydro Moc is designed for a minimalist feel. For extended wear or activities requiring more support, consider shorter durations or adding a thin, compatible insole if space allows.
Material feels stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in. The proprietary foam is designed to soften and conform to your foot with use.

- Washing: For a deeper clean, use mild soap and a soft brush to gently scrub the foam. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
