FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Speed Strike 2 is designed for breathability and comfort; while they handle light moisture well, they are not marketed as fully waterproof.
Can I use these for long-distance hiking?
They are ideal for light trekking and day hikes, but for multi-day, high-intensity mountain treks, we recommend dedicated hiking boots.
How do I determine my size?
We recommend measuring your feet in the evening when they are at their largest and comparing them to the UK size guide provided.
Is the sole suitable for slippery surfaces?
The outsole is designed for standard trail and urban surfaces, providing good traction, though it should be used with caution on extremely icy or greasy surfaces.
How should I clean the suede versions?
Use a specialized suede brush or cleaner to maintain the nap; avoid getting suede excessively wet.
Troubleshooting
Outer material showing signs of dirt accumulation
Use a dry soft brush to remove loose dust and a damp cloth with mild detergent for persistent stains.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing pattern to be tighter across the midfoot or consider replacing the factory insole with a higher-arch model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Merrell Speed Strike 2 trainers last, follow these guidelines. For sizing, these shoes are standard UK fit; ensure your foot is measured while wearing the socks you intend to use for trekking. If your pair is made of suede, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud after outdoor use to maintain the texture. For general cleaning, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the bonding materials. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fatigue.
