FAQs
What type of terrain are the Agility Peak 5 shoes best suited for?
These shoes are specifically designed for trail running and are best suited for varied and technical terrains, including rocky paths, dirt trails, and muddy conditions, thanks to their Vibram MegaGrip outsole.
What is the heel-to-toe drop, and who is it for?
The heel-to-toe drop is 6mm. This moderate drop is suitable for a wide range of runners, including those who prefer a more natural foot position or run on their midfoot/forefoot.
Are these shoes good for long-distance running like ultramarathons?
Yes, the FloatPro foam cushioning provides plush comfort and support, making them a strong choice for long-distance events such as ultramarathons.
What does the 'Gaiter D-Ring' do?
The gaiter D-ring is a small attachment point on the shoe that allows you to securely fasten a compatible trail running gaiter, helping to keep out dirt, stones, and debris.
How much do the shoes weigh?
The Merrell Agility Peak 5 Trail Shoes weigh approximately 235g (per shoe), making them lightweight for their performance capabilities.
What are the sustainability features of this shoe?
The shoes incorporate sustainable materials, including 100% recycled laces and webbing, a 100% recycled breathable mesh lining, a 100% recycled mesh footbed cover, and a 50% recycled EVA foam footbed.
Can I use these shoes for road running?
While they can be used for short road sections to connect trails, they are optimized for off-road terrain. The aggressive outsole pattern may wear faster and provide less optimal cushioning on hard, flat surfaces like roads.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a balanced fit. If discomfort persists, the size or width may not be suitable for your foot shape.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.
Ensure the Vibram outsole is clean. Debris can accumulate and reduce grip. For persistent issues on very slick surfaces, consider using trail-specific traction devices if conditions are extreme.
Feet feel hot or sweaty during runs.
The engineered mesh upper is designed for ventilation. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks. If overheating is a persistent issue, consider the ambient temperature and humidity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before your first run. The lacing system can be adjusted for a personalized fit.
Compatibility: Designed for trail running and hiking. They are compatible with standard running socks. The gaiter D-ring allows for attachment of compatible gaiters.
Care: To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the upper and outsole. For deeper cleaning, hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials. Allow shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Ensure laces and footbeds are dry before storage.
