FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
The Merrell Hydro Moc is designed primarily for water-based activities and casual wear. While they offer some protection, they do not provide the support or traction needed for most hiking trails.
Can I wear socks with the Hydro Moc?
These shoes are designed to be worn barefoot for optimal comfort and quick drying. Wearing socks is generally not recommended as it can impede drying and comfort in wet conditions.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Merrell. These are generally true to size, but if you are between sizes, consider your intended use; a slightly looser fit is often preferred for water shoes.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing or tumble drying is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand wash and air dry as per the care instructions.
What makes them more durable than other water shoes?
The Hydro Moc uses advanced construction techniques and specific materials engineered to withstand prolonged exposure to water and the elements, offering a longer lifespan compared to more basic water footwear.
Can I use these for kayaking or paddleboarding?
Yes, they are an excellent choice for kayaking and paddleboarding due to their easy on/off nature, water-friendly design, and quick-drying properties.
Do they offer arch support?
The Hydro Moc features a contoured footbed for comfort, but it is a minimalist shoe and may not provide significant arch support for individuals who require specialized orthopedic features.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly stiff initially.
Wear them for a short period in and out of water to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.
Water drainage seems slow.
Ensure the drainage ports are clear of any debris. A gentle rinse should help clear them.
Slipping on very smooth surfaces.
These shoes are designed for wet surfaces; while they offer grip, extreme smoothness may reduce traction. Exercise caution.
