Setup, Compatibility & Care
These hiking shoes require no special setup; they are ready for use out of the box. They are compatible with most standard hiking socks. To care for your Merrell Moab Speed 2 Leather Mid shoes:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For more stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or fires. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Waterproofing: Periodically apply a leather-specific waterproofing treatment to maintain the water-repellent properties of the nubuck leather and the waterproof membrane.
- Laces: Inspect laces regularly for wear and tear; replace if frayed.
