FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The SpeedArc Matis is designed for versatility, but please consult the specific product hangtag, as they are primarily built for breathability and athletic performance rather than full waterproof sealing.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While they are athletic and agile, they are specifically engineered as hiking shoes. For long-distance road running, a dedicated running shoe may offer better shock absorption.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when it is at its largest and comparing it to the standard Merrell sizing chart.
Are these suitable for cold weather?
They are designed for general hiking use. In extremely cold conditions, you may need to pair them with thicker, moisture-wicking socks to maintain warmth.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and materials of the shoes. Always clean by hand with a soft brush and mild soap.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Clean the outsole with a soft brush to remove packed-in mud or debris that may be obstructing the tread pattern.
Discomfort during long walks
Ensure laces are tightened correctly to secure the foot; if issues persist, check that the insole is properly aligned and clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum longevity, keep the shoes clean by brushing off loose dirt after each trail outing. If the shoes become muddy, use a soft brush and mild soap with lukewarm water to spot clean the exterior materials; avoid fully submerging the shoes in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals. Ensure you select the correct UK size, as the SpeedArc Matis fits true to size for most users. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can degrade the cushioning materials and adhesives.
