Description

The Adapt Matryx is a sturdy trail shoe for runners who log a lot of kilometres on technical and wet terrain. The upper is woven with Kevlar and stays intact even after plenty of rocky training runs. Your foot sits protected in the shoe without it feeling hot.

On rocks, in mud and on steep descents you notice the grip and the cushioning the most. Once you get tired and place your feet less precisely, the shoe absorbs awkward landings and keeps your foot stable. It suits long training days in the mountains and ultras in changing weather.

It is not a light racing shoe. You get protection and a long lifespan, but less directness than in a race shoe. If you mostly run short, fast trail races, it will feel bigger than necessary.

Choose it for long, rough trails. If speed is what you want, look at the Skyfire 2 or Long Sky 2.

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

Is the Merrell MTL Adapt Matryx waterproof?

No, it has no waterproof membrane. The woven Matryx upper is breathable and dries faster than a waterproof shoe when it gets wet.

What terrain is this trail shoe made for?

For technical paths, rocks, mud and steep descents. It is built to cover many kilometres in tough terrain, not to be as light as possible.

Which size should I choose?

Unsure between two sizes? Then go for the larger one.

Can I use my own insole?

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

Speedgoat eat your hart out!

Merrell heeft zich mij al eens bewezen met de agility peak 5. Maatvoering van deze Merrells is voor mij heel gunstig omdat ik bij andere merken (vooral bij Hoka) steeds uitkom op een maat groter en dat is ongunstig omdat ik vrij smalle voeten heb. Ik heb dat dus niet in de merrells want de Adapt zit eigenlijk nog beter dan de a.p5. Heal slippage? jawel maar minder dan bij a.p.5. Wat vooral heel opmerkelijk is aan de Adapt is dat ze enorm stabiel zijn. Waar ik normaal wel wat "ankle roll" heb op de grasstroken langs de Hollandse sloten is het nu net of ik op een strak gazon onderweg ben. Heel vreemde gewaarwoording. Duidelijk een groot pluspunt van deze schoenen. Verder compenseert de afwikkeling de iets wat zwaare schoen. In mijn maar 44,5 weegt de schoen 319 g, voelt echter veel lichter aan. Of de Adapts ook lang meegaan moet ik nog ervaren maar ik vermoed dat dat wel goed zit met de matryx upper.
