FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy hiking?

The Merrell Cham Redux Storm GORE-TEX® is designed for lifestyle wear and light outdoor activities. While durable and waterproof, they may not offer the specialized support and protection required for rugged, long-distance hiking.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX® material?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, which can damage the membrane.

What is the main advantage of the GORE-TEX® membrane?

The GORE-TEX® membrane provides a waterproof barrier, preventing water from entering the shoe while allowing moisture vapor (sweat) to escape, keeping your feet dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.

Can these shoes be worn in warm weather?

While GORE-TEX® is breathable, these shoes are primarily designed for protection against elements like rain and cooler temperatures. For very hot weather, more ventilated footwear might be preferable.

What does 'Redux Storm' signify?

'Redux' suggests a revival or reimagining of a previous design, in this case, the classic Chameleon family. 'Storm' indicates the weather-resistant capabilities, specifically the GORE-TEX® waterproofing.

Where can I find other color options or sizes?

Please check the product listing or the Merrell website for available colorways and sizes. This guide focuses specifically on the black variant.

Troubleshooting

Water ingress despite GORE-TEX®

Ensure the shoe tongue is properly positioned to seal against the upper. Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX® membrane or seam seals. Clean the exterior thoroughly as dirt can compromise waterproofing.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Try adjusting the lacing to achieve a more secure yet comfortable fit. Break in the shoes with shorter walks before undertaking longer activities.

Reduced grip on surfaces

Check the outsole for embedded debris or wear. The grip may be reduced on very slick or polished surfaces. Clean the outsole with water and a brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. If needed, wipe the shoes with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources such as radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and waterproofing.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: The GORE-TEX® membrane is durable, but to maintain optimal performance, avoid exposing the shoes to excessive heat or prolonged submersion in water.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to preserve the materials.
