Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane that provides high-level waterproof protection while remaining breathable.

Can I use these for technical climbing?

No, these are designed for hiking and walking. They lack the specialized rubber and rigidity required for technical rock climbing.

How deep are the lugs on the sole?

The outsole features a 4.2mm lug depth for excellent traction on trails.

Are the materials sustainable?

The shoe utilizes 100% recycled laces and mesh lining as part of Merrell's commitment to reducing waste.

Will the leather stretch over time?

Leather typically softens and forms to your foot shape after a brief break-in period, improving overall comfort.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the internal EVA foam insoles are removable.

Troubleshooting

Water entering the shoe during heavy rain

Ensure the tongue is centered and laces are tightened correctly; check the upper for any tears or excessive wear in the waterproof membrane.

Foot discomfort or arch pain

The included EVA foam insole can be removed to accommodate custom orthotic inserts if additional arch support is needed.

Persistent odor inside the shoe

Remove the insole and wash it separately with mild soap; allow the shoe to air out completely after each use to reactivate the effectiveness of the antimicrobial treatment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for damp trails
  • High level of shock absorption via heel cushioning
  • Rugged outsole with deep lugs for superior grip
  • Effective debris-prevention system
  • Odor management thanks to antimicrobial treatment

Cons

  • Heavier construction compared to non-leather trail shoes
  • May require a short break-in period for the leather upper
  • Warmth may increase during intense summer hiking

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before your first trek, ensure the shoes fit securely by tightening the recycled laces to lock the heel in place. To maintain the integrity of the leather and the GORE-TEX membrane, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt after every hike.
  2. Washing: Do not machine wash. Use lukewarm water and a mild soap if deeper cleaning is required.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can crack the leather.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew growth within the mesh lining.
