Description

Fast and direct on technical terrain. The responsive cushioning works with a flexible carbon plate to support the push-off, while the sturdy upper wraps around the foot during more aggressive running.

Designed for races and high tempos. The grip is developed for both wet and dry surfaces and comes in handy on rocks, technical trails, and steep sections. Especially as fatigue sets in during longer races, you will notice that the construction helps maintain an efficient push-off.

Choose this trail shoe if speed is important, but your course also demands stability and grip. For easy endurance runs or runners who want a lot of flexibility underfoot, it may feel too performance-oriented.

For racing on rough trails, this is the logical choice.

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.
