Extended Product Information

The Merrell ANTORA 3 GTX Trail Running Shoes are built for the demands of female trail runners who require robust, versatile footwear. The GORE-TEX membrane ensures your feet remain dry and comfortable through puddles, mud, and rain, while maintaining breathability to prevent overheating. The Vibram TC5+ outsole is a key highlight, providing dependable grip and traction that instills confidence on unpredictable mountain paths and ensures stability on hard city pavements alike. The combination of forefoot and heel cushioning pods with the Super Rebound Compound works synergistically to absorb impacts, reduce rotational forces on your joints, and promote a fluid stride, which is essential for comfort during long-distance runs. The added rock plate acts as a protective shield, guarding your feet from sharp objects encountered on technical trails, making these shoes a reliable partner for varied outdoor adventures.

To maintain the longevity and performance of your Merrell ANTORA 3 GTX shoes, general care recommendations include: - Cleaning: After use, gently brush off loose dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. If necessary, wipe down the shoes with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. - Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage materials, especially the GORE-TEX membrane and adhesives. - Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. - Maintenance: Periodically check laces and webbing for wear and tear. Do not machine wash, as this can compromise the waterproof membrane and shoe structure.
