Description

The Skyfire 2 for women is made for those who want to race on technical courses with lots of climbs and descents. The shoe feels light and direct and supports a high pace over short to mid-distances.

On fast descents and steep sections the plate in the sole helps with protection and push-off, while the lugs grip wet and dry ground. You notice it most when you get tired and still want to land sharply.

The cushioning is deliberately kept limited for speed. If you run lots of long, easy kilometres, you are better off choosing a shoe with more comfort.

Not sure? Choose the Skyfire 2 for races. For long days the Long Sky 2 is a better fit.

Why Merrell?

A long trail rarely stays on the path. It gets rocky, wet or muddy, and that is when you want a shoe you can trust. That is exactly why we carry Merrell at Trail.NL.

Merrell builds trail shoes with Vibram outsoles for grip and cushioned midsoles for long distances. The faster MTL models have a Matryx upper reinforced with Kevlar. From the Agility Peak for long days in the mountains to the MTL range for racing: there is a model for training and for racing.

For us, Merrell is above all a reliable trail shoe: plenty of grip, good cushioning and a no-nonsense fit.

Frequently asked questions

When do I choose the Skyfire 2 Matryx?

When you want to run fast on technical courses with lots of climbs and descents. The plate in the sole gives extra protection and push-off on rocky terrain.

Is there enough cushioning for longer distances?

The cushioning is medium and the shoe is made for speed. For long ultras you would usually pick a more comfortable shoe, for example the Long Sky 2.

Which size should I take?

Take your usual running shoe size. The fit is rather narrow, so try it on first if you have a wider foot.

Will my own insole fit in this shoe?

Yes, the insole is removable, so you can replace it with your own (orthopaedic) insole. Thickness and shape can change the volume in the shoe, though.
