FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance hiking?
The Nova 4 Traveller is designed for everyday wear, travel, and light trails. For very long or strenuous hikes with significant elevation changes, a more specialized hiking boot might offer superior support and protection.
How do I clean the suede upper?
Gently brush away dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a lightly damp cloth and mild soap, then allow to air dry. Avoid saturation.
What is the main benefit of the FloatPro Foam midsole?
The FloatPro Foam midsole is engineered to provide lightweight, durable cushioning that lasts, enhancing comfort during prolonged wear.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the suede and mesh offer some protection, they are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain or damp conditions, but not for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion.
What makes the Merrell Quantum Grip outsole special?
Merrell Quantum Grip is a durable rubber compound specifically designed to provide confident traction on both wet and dry surfaces, adapting to challenging trail environments.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Utilize the traditional lace closure to adjust the fit securely around your foot. Ensure there is adequate room in the toe box without the heel slipping.
Troubleshooting
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the Quantum Grip outsole is clean from debris. For significantly wet conditions, consider specialized trail running shoes if extreme grip is needed.
Feet feel warm after extended wear
The breathable mesh lining aids ventilation. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. If the issue persists, consider socks designed for warmer weather.
Suede upper shows water marks
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Consider a suede protectant spray for future water resistance.
