FAQs
What type of leather is used?
The Merrell Cove Leather Backstrap features a full-grain leather upper, known for its quality and durability.
Can I wear these in water?
While the leather can withstand some moisture, they are not designed as water shoes. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather. It is best to allow them to dry thoroughly if they become wet.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to standard UK sizing charts for men's footwear. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately. The adjustable strap can offer some flexibility.
Are these suitable for hiking?
These are best suited for casual wear and light walking. The durable rubber sole provides some traction, but they are not designed for rugged or strenuous hiking trails.
How often should I condition the leather?
It is recommended to condition the leather every few months, or more often if you notice the material becoming dry or after significant cleaning.
Can the velcro strap be replaced?
The velcro strap is integrated into the design. While it is generally durable, if it fails, it may not be easily replaceable by the user. Contact Merrell customer support for options.
What is the main benefit of the foam footbed?
The foam footbed provides cushioning and support, enhancing comfort for extended periods of wear.
Troubleshooting
Strap not holding securely
Clean the velcro surfaces of the strap to remove lint and debris. If the velcro is worn out, consider replacement if possible or contact customer support.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a quality leather conditioner to moisturize the material. Allow it to absorb fully before wearing.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces
Ensure the rubber sole is clean. For significantly reduced traction on wet surfaces, consider the limitations of the material in such conditions and exercise caution.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the velcro strap is adjusted correctly for a snug but not tight fit. Allow your feet to adjust to the foam footbed if new to the product.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Merrell Cove Leather Backstrap requires no setup. Simply adjust the velcro strap to achieve your desired fit.
Compatibility: This product is designed for adult male feet. Ensure your UK size is correct for optimal comfort.
Care:
- Cleaning Leather: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking, especially after cleaning or exposure to dry conditions.
- Strap Care: Ensure the velcro strap is clean and free of debris to maintain its fastening effectiveness.
