Product Features

• Vibram® Outsoles: Merrell partners with Vibram to create ultra-grippy rubber outsoles that provide exceptional traction on wet, dry, and uneven surfaces. The specially designed lug patterns channel mud and debris away while maintaining flexibility for natural foot movement.
• Air Cushion Technology: Our advanced heel cushioning absorbs shock and returns energy with each step. This innovative system reduces foot fatigue by 30% compared to standard foam, making long hikes and walks more comfortable.
• Breathable Waterproof Membranes: Many Merrell styles feature M-Select™ DRY technology that keeps feet dry in wet conditions while allowing moisture vapor to escape. The waterproof yet breathable construction prevents overheating during strenuous activity.
• Contoured Footbeds: Merrell's anatomical footbeds provide arch support and cradle your foot's natural shape. Made from compression-molded EVA foam, they offer cushioning that molds to your foot over time for personalized comfort.
• Protective Toe Caps: Reinforced rubber toe guards shield your feet from rocks and roots on the trail. These durable bumpers extend the life of your shoes while preventing painful stubs during technical terrain navigation.
• Eco-Friendly Materials: We're committed to sustainability with recycled mesh uppers, plant-based dyes, and responsibly sourced leathers. Many styles now incorporate at least 50% recycled content without compromising performance or durability.
