FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The focus of the MTL Adapt Matryx is breathability and durability; they are not classified as waterproof.
Can I use these for road running?
While wearable on road, the outsole is optimized for trail terrain and will experience faster wear on abrasive asphalt.
How should I clean them after a muddy trail run?
Gently brush off dried mud with a soft-bristled brush and wipe down with a damp cloth; do not soak or machine wash.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
It offers standard athletic support designed for natural foot alignment, suitable for most neutral runners.
Is the size accurate to standard Merrell sizing?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to have a thumb's width of space at the toe for downhill comfort.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the upper
The high-tenacity fibers need a short break-in period; wear the shoes for shorter runs to allow the fabric to adapt to your foot shape.
Accumulation of debris inside
Ensure the heel collar is pulled tight and consider using a small gaiter if running in extremely loose, sandy conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, pair these shoes with moisture-wicking technical socks. When fitting, ensure the laces are tightened to your preference to leverage the Matryx upper's stability. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, clean the exterior with a soft brush and mild soap to remove dried mud and dust. Air dry in a cool, shaded area, as direct heat sources can compromise the integrity of the specialized performance materials.
