FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for serious hiking?
These trainers are designed for versatile, light outdoor use and lifestyle wear. For technical high-altitude or rugged mountain hiking, consider specialized Merrell hiking boots.
How do I clean the grey upper material?
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, gently dab with a mixture of water and mild soap, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing for easy cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotic inserts if needed.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing guidelines; however, if you plan on wearing thick hiking socks, some users prefer to go up half a size.
What is the best way to dry them if they get wet?
Always air dry them at room temperature. Stuffing them with newspaper can help draw out moisture and maintain their shape while drying.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after the first few hours of wear
The structure may need a short break-in period; try wearing them for shorter intervals to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Accumulation of debris inside the shoe
Regularly remove the footbed and shake out debris; a mild brush around the eyelets can also help keep the closure area clear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Fitment: Always use a shoe horn when putting them on to maintain the integrity of the heel collar.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after use. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the materials.
- Drying: Air dry naturally in a shaded area. Never place these shoes near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the adhesives and materials.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent color fading and material stiffening.
