FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Merrell SpeedArc Matis focus on breathability and agility; they are not marketed as waterproof.

Can I use these for running?

While they are athletic-inspired, they are specifically engineered for fast-hiking and may not provide the same specialized support as dedicated long-distance running shoes.

How do I determine the right size?

These shoes follow standard UK sizing; it is recommended to leave a small amount of space for toe movement, especially for hiking.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to use custom orthotics if required.

How should I clean the exterior?

Use a soft brush and a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid harsh chemical cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort after long walks

Ensure your socks are moisture-wicking and check that the shoe laces are not too tight, which can restrict blood flow.

Outsole losing traction

Inspect the treads for trapped mud or compacted debris and clear them using a brush to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Merrell SpeedArc Matis hiking shoes, proper care is essential. Always ensure you are selecting the correct UK size for your foot to prevent premature wear on the heel counter. After use on muddy or dusty trails, gently brush off loose debris with a soft-bristled brush. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, which can warp the materials. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and cold water; avoid machine washing as this can compromise the adhesive and structural integrity of the sneaker.
