Grab a pair of Merrells and stride out this summer with a newly developed range of ladies outdoor footwear. The latest line of innovation from Merrell comes in the form of three uniquely designed footwear styles that will equip those pursuing all types of adventure.
Whether it’s for walks along designated country footpaths or unpredictable trail routes through fast flowing rivers and marshy wetland, the Merrell range has a shoe to fit.
The first of the three styles we love is the Waterpro Merced sandal (right, £55). Perfect in coping with water sports and river wading treks, the ventilated upper and drainage ports of the shoe make light work of any soggy feet and damp sock issues, making it an ideal choice for those whose feet will be subject to a lot of wet conditions.
The second style is a shoe that is as successful in water as it is on land. Built with the same ventilated upper and drainage port components as the Merced sandal, the cleverly designed Waterpro Maipo shoe (below left, £60) is durable in fast moving water as well as on dry land.
Finally there is the Chameleon Arc Web Sport (above right, £65), a shoe which is ideal for use in warm weather climates and water sports. The newly modernised design has bridged the gap between hiking and multi-sports with its breathable upper providing the ventilation and the slip-lasted construction, the comfort.
If you’re now left looking for inspiration as to where to take those itching feet why not sign up for the Merrell Passport.
A brand new creation from the people at Merrell, the passport has been designed to coax out the outdoor streak that’s within us all, by taking part in some of the toughest physical challenges.
Surfing, mountain biking, hiking, snowboarding, skiing, canoeing, mountain boarding, wind surfing, sailing and climbing are all on offer for holders of the Merrell Passport to sign up for.
Once registered with a Merrell Passport, users will be informed of the best outdoor events throughout the year as well as advice on how to take part, how to get there, and even what to wear. The passport also offers practical tips on getting the most from being outside and provides a page-a-week diary, year planner, and useful contacts to help get inspired.
Passport holders with a fully stamped passport by the end of the year will have the opportunity to win an array of prizes, from holidays with friends to the latest Merrell gear.
