(MTL Adapt Matrix(R))” will be released sequentially from Saturday, March 29, 2025. ■ Gradually expanding lineup of high-performance shoes suitable for trail running races of all distances MERRELL is gradually expanding its lineup of high-performance models that are compatible with all categories of trail running races, including the ultra-light and ultra-grip models “MTL SKYFIRE 2 MATRYX(R)” and “MTL LONG SKY 2 MATRYX(R)” that demonstrate overwhelming power in short- and medium-distance speed races centered on sky running and uphill, as well as the “AGILITY PEAK 5″ that demonstrates high performance with cushioning, landing stability, and excellent grip performance. (Agility Peak 5)”, and over the past few years has received high praise from many users regardless of their level. In response to “ultra-distance” races exceeding 100 km/100 miles, which have become increasingly popular in the trail running world in recent years, we have launched the latest model “MTL ADAPT MATRYX(R)”, which has a thicker sole and provides better cushioning and stability.

By adopting MATRYX(R), we have been able to review the upper pattern, and by reducing the number of overlay parts, we have realized a structural design that is lighter and more breathable. In addition, the midsole is based on the sustainable EVA foam “FLOATPRO (TM)”, which has excellent cushioning properties and rebound resilience, and combines the contradictory properties of lightness and durability (sustainability of function), with supercritical foam “FLOATPRO (TM)”, which has been injected with nitrogen and has updated its lightweight, durability, and propulsion properties (cushioning properties). Contrary to its appearance, it is not too soft, and is particularly excellent in its ability to leave the ground when landing or kicking off, as well as its lightness and stability. The outsole is equipped with Vibram MEGAGRIP, the highest-quality grip from the world-renowned Italian sole manufacturer Vibram, with a lug depth of 4mm. It provides the highest level of grip on wet roads and rugged trails. Furthermore, in accordance with the original pattern of the lugs, we have adopted “Vibram TRACTION LUG”, which improves traction by approximately 25% by making each lug’s shape step-like and expanding its surface area. The ultimate model for long distance wear with a heel thickness of 36mm has been created, featuring three high-performance technologies. Even in harsh field conditions, the upper is extremely lightweight, breathable, and durable, so you don’t have to worry about tears, and the high cushioning and grip performance allows you to drive more aggressively.
