FAQs
Are the Merrell Nova 4s waterproof?
Yes, these trainers include a built-in waterproof membrane that blocks external moisture while allowing internal sweat vapor to escape.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the EVA foam footbeds are removable, which makes it easy to clean them or replace them with custom orthotics.
What is the best way to clean these shoes?
Use a soft brush to remove dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth. Always air dry at room temperature; avoid tumble drying.
Are these suitable for long-distance hiking?
They are designed for comfort and agility, making them excellent for moderate to long-distance hikes on trails.
Do they provide good grip on wet surfaces?
Yes, the Quantum Grip rubber outsole is specifically engineered to provide reliable traction in extreme environments, including wet surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing tension and ensure you are using the correct sock thickness; if issues persist, replace the factory footbed with an aftermarket insole.
Water entering the shoe
Check for tears in the upper mesh; if the shoe is clean, the waterproof membrane should perform correctly. Ensure your pant cuffs are not funneling water into the top of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you are wearing your preferred hiking socks during your initial test. If you use custom orthotics, the removable EVA footbed allows for a seamless swap. To clean your trainers, remove excess mud with a soft brush and rinse with lukewarm water. Air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as intense heat can damage the waterproof membrane and adhesives. Periodically check the outsole for debris lodged in the tread patterns to maintain optimal traction.
