Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell SpeedArc Matis, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Break-in: Wear the shoes for short periods indoors or on light walks to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using harsh soaps or chemicals that can strip the protective finish.
- Drying: If the interior becomes wet, remove the insoles and let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can crack the leather.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While the bootie is waterproof, applying a leather-specific conditioning wax periodically will maintain the outer material's water resistance and prevent it from drying out.
