FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for summer hiking?
Yes, but be aware that the waterproof construction may retain more heat than non-waterproof models, so wear moisture-wicking socks.
How should I clean the exterior?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and wipe with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
Do I need to break these in?
While they are comfortable out of the box, we recommend wearing them on short walks before attempting long-distance treks.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these true to size?
Merrell generally follows standard sizing; however, since hiking socks can be thicker, some users prefer a half-size larger for extra toe room.
Troubleshooting
Foot fatigue after long hikes
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly to lock the heel in place and consider aftermarket insoles if additional arch support is needed.
Waterproofing seems less effective over time
Dirt buildup can clog the breathable pores of the waterproof membrane; clean the upper material thoroughly and consider a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) refresh spray.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Check the outsole for lodged debris like small stones or dried mud that may be preventing the tread from making full contact with the ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merrell Bryce Radius shoes, begin by checking the fit with your preferred hiking socks. Because these are performance-oriented, ensure the laces are tightened properly across the midfoot to prevent hotspots. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, remove mud with a soft-bristled brush and clean the exterior using lukewarm water and a mild soap. Always air-dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can compromise the waterproof membrane and the integrity of the foam cushioning.
