Merrell Nova 2 Trail Running Shoes
Featuring sneaker-light comfort and hiker-like durability, the Merrell Nova 2 offers the perfect escape vehicle for when you're ready to answer the call of the wild.
Mesh And TPU Upper
The Merrell Nova 2 Trail Running Shoes are constructed using a mesh and TPU upper and with a breathable mesh lining. The mesh allows air to fully permeate the upper providing a supply of cool, fresh air whilst simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air that resides within the shoe during heavy exertion. A breathable mesh lining works with antimicrobial agents to keep you feeling cooler and fresher for longer; the antimicrobial agents reside in the shoe lining and materials preventing sweat and moisture from affecting the freshness of your shoe by penetrating and disrupting the reproduction of the odour-causing microbes in your shoes. The external rear strap combined with the traditional lace closure system provides a secure fit locking the foot into the shoe and anchoring to the midsole to reduce in-shoe slippage for quick descents and sharp turns.
EVA Midsole
The EVA removable insole and lightweight EVA midsole provide exceptional stability and comfort, whilst offering the opportunity to insert different insoles for the optimum fit depending on your needs. The EVA midsole provides stability, agility, and comfort, supporting the natural motion of the foot and providing comfort through the gait cycle and ultimately reducing harmful shocks and impact forces. The moulded nylon arch shank provides a supportive structure that resides between the insole and the outsole; diminishing the load incurred on your feet and calves over the course of your adventure the moulded nylon arch shank helps to reduce fatigue. Cushioning pods have been integrated into the design to provide supportive cushioning for the forefoot and heel, ensuring comfort with every step. Within the heel Air Cushioning technology absorbs any shock from coming in contact with the ground and provides you with additional stability.
Vibram Outsole
Designed with Vibram TC5+ these shoes are designed for those who want a challenge; with the best combination of traction and durability, these trail running shoes are perfect for slippery and challenging terrain. The high-performance rubber compound offers grip and traction on wet and dry surfaces in the most extreme temperatures and with the outsole design boasting no lugs underneath the arch, your foot is encouraged to flex more naturally with greater comfort; the ideal shoe for demanding activity. Finished with a rock plate for additional support when on tricky off-road terrain, the underfoot comfort and protection against sharp debris and rocks prepare you for any challenge that may come your way.
