FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wet conditions?
The mesh upper allows for excellent drainage, but they are not fully waterproof, so they will absorb water if submerged.
Can I use these for road running?
While comfortable enough for short road sections, the outsole is specifically optimized for trail terrain and will wear down faster on asphalt.
How should I clean the recycled laces?
Remove the laces and soak them in a bowl of warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and air dry.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the internal mesh footbed cover can be removed if you need to use your own custom orthotic insoles.
What is the primary surface for the Antora 4?
They perform best on single-track trails, gravel paths, and forest dirt trails.
How do I check the sizing?
Merrell sizes follow standard athletic sizing; compare your current running shoe size to the UK sizing provided for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve tension on the specific area of pressure.
Accumulation of debris inside the shoe
Consider wearing trail-specific gaiters to prevent rocks and dirt from entering through the ankle collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell Antora 4 trainers, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. For the initial setup, ensure you wear the socks you intend to use for running to verify the correct fit in the arch and heel. To clean, remove excess dirt with a soft-bristled brush after each outing. If the shoes become heavily soiled, hand wash them with lukewarm water and a mild detergent, avoiding harsh chemicals or machine washing, which can compromise the foam integrity. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping.
