Why We Love the Merrell Speed Eco Waterproof Hiking Shoe

In a sea of Merrell shoes, the Speed Eco stands out as the brand's lightest and most eco-friendly hiking shoe. Ideal for fast hikes on well-maintained trails, this waterproof version features Merrell's advanced proprietary membrane to keep rain and splashes at bay in wet conditions.

The "Eco" in its name refers to the shoe's exceptional use of recycled materials. The uppers, midsoles, outsoles, laces, webbing, lining, and footbed covers are all composed of 100% recycled materials. Not only does this make the Speed Eco lighter on your feet, but it also contributes to a lighter footprint on the planet.

Key Features:

• Merrell's most recycled shoe to date
• Synthetic materials reduce weight for fast-and-light hikes
• Merrell's proprietary waterproofing seals out moisture
• EVA footbeds provide light cushioning
• 10mm drop cushions the heel for shock absorption
• Cleansport NXT technology combats odor-causing bacteria
• Vibram rubber outsoles with 4mm lugs for superior hiking traction
