FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Cham Redux RMT features breathable mesh and suede materials, which are not inherently waterproof. Using a protective spray can add a layer of water resistance.

Are these suitable for long-distance hiking?

While durable and comfortable, these are designed as lifestyle trainers. They are best suited for light trail walking and urban use rather than technical, high-mileage hiking.

How should I clean the mesh panels?

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoe completely.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the provided insoles are generally removable if you wish to use custom orthotics.

Do these shoes fit true to size?

The Chameleon series typically fits true to standard sizes, though individual preference for toe room may vary.

Troubleshooting

Toggle lace feels too loose or tight

Adjust the spring-loaded toggle while the shoe is on your foot to find the optimal tension, then tuck the excess cord into the provided loops.

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap of the leather and remove surface debris.

Minor heel slippage

Ensure the molded TPU heel is sitting properly against your heel and re-tighten the toggle system to secure the midfoot area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Merrell 1TRL trainers, proper care is essential. Upon first use, ensure the toggle mechanism is adjusted to a comfortable tension that allows for natural foot movement without excessive pressure. Because these shoes feature suede components, it is recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before initial wear to protect against moisture and dirt. For cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a dedicated suede cleaner for localized stains. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the suede material and structural adhesives. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
