FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
Yes, they are suitable for light hiking and trails, especially in warmer or wet conditions, due to their cushioning and durable construction. However, they do not offer the ankle support of traditional hiking boots for very technical terrain.
How do I clean the Hydro Next Gen Moc 1TRL?
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse with cool water and allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Are these waterproof?
While they are water-friendly and dry quickly, they are not fully waterproof. They are designed to let water in and out easily, making them ideal for activities near water.
What is the benefit of the FloatMax midsole?
The FloatMax midsole provides maximum cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to exceptional comfort during extended wear and reducing fatigue on your feet.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear them with or without socks, depending on your preference and the weather. Some users prefer to wear thin, moisture-wicking socks for added comfort or warmth.
What does '1TRL' mean in the product name?
1TRL typically refers to Merrell's 'Trailhead' or outdoor-inspired lifestyle collection, indicating a focus on performance-enhanced casual wear.
Do they come in other colors or sizes?
Yes, the Hydro Next Gen Moc 1TRL is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
While there are no adjustable laces, ensure you have selected the correct size. The improved heel shape should offer a more secure fit, but if it's still not right, consider trying a different size or model.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel counter is fully accessible. You may need to slightly flex the shoe to create more opening. Once worn a few times, the shoe may become more pliable.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the shoes are the correct size and width for your foot. Check for any debris or seams inside the shoe that might be causing irritation. Allow a break-in period if the shoes are new.
Excessive water retention
These shoes are designed for water activities and should drain reasonably well. If excessive retention is an issue, ensure the water-draining ports are not blocked. Always allow them to air dry completely after getting wet.
