FAQs
Is this shoe waterproof?
The MTL Adapt Matryx prioritizes breathability over waterproofing. While it dries quickly, it is not designed with a waterproof membrane.
Can I use these for road running?
While they are comfortable, they are specifically engineered for trail terrain. Using them primarily on pavement will lead to premature wear of the outsole lugs.
How do I determine my size?
The MTL Adapt Matryx generally runs true to size, but we recommend measuring your feet while wearing your preferred trail socks for the most accurate fit.
What is the best way to clean these shoes?
Hand wash with a soft brush and mild soap, then air dry away from direct sunlight or high heat.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The fit is athletic and performance-oriented. If you typically require wide-width footwear, you may find the standard width of this model snug.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points along the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing tension; the Matryx material is highly durable and may need a slightly looser lacing pattern during the initial break-in period.
Accumulation of fine dust inside the shoe
Ensure the heel collar is flush against your ankle and consider using gaiters if you are running in particularly dry, dusty, or sandy conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Merrell MTL Adapt Matryx shoes, start by ensuring you have the correct size for your arch type. Because these shoes feature a technical fit, it is recommended to wear moisture-wicking synthetic socks rather than heavy cotton to maximize the breathability of the Matryx material. For care, avoid putting the shoes in a washing machine, as this can degrade the specialized fibers. Instead, brush off dried mud with a soft-bristled brush and rinse with lukewarm water. Always air dry in a cool, shaded area, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can deform the midsole cushioning.
