Merrell AGILITY PEAK 5 [Men's]

DETAILSProduct Information

A trail running shoe equipped with a high-performance thick sole unit that maximizes performance during long-distance, long-term activities on any terrain.

The upper is made of lightweight and highly breathable "high-performance engineered mesh x TPU reinforcement" to ensure a neutral fit and stability. The midsole is made of "FLOATPRO™" foam, a sustainable midsole that combines the opposing properties of lightness and durability, and has excellent resilience and cushioning. In addition, the bottom 3/4 of the forefoot is equipped with an ESS foam lock plate to prevent impact from the ground, contributing to the "surface stability" of the sole of the foot and adopting a rocker structure that promotes smooth stepping. The outsole is made of "Vibram MEGAGRIP x Vibram TRACTION LUG" outsole (lug depth 5mm) that provides the highest level of grip on wet roads and rugged trails.

This model has improved the risk of the "shaky feeling" when landing on the heel due to the soft cushioning that is unique to thick-soled shoes, and has received many test impressions that it is "highly stable when landing. " In addition, compared to the previous version model " AGILITY PEAK 4 ," the upper has been updated in terms of breathability, lightness, soft fit ( comfort ) , and grip. With a good balance of functions, this is an all-round model that can be used for any outdoor activity, as well as tough long-distance trail races such as 100km and 100mile.

[Function/Material]

■ Engineered mesh and TPU reinforced upper
The high-performance mesh "Engineered Mesh" is made by loosely knitting the areas that require high breathability and flexibility, and by knitting the areas that require high support with a high density. It is reinforced with TPU to improve stability.
■ Recycled shoelaces and webbing
Shoelaces and webbing made from 100% recycled materials.
■ Gaiter D-ring and Velcro at heel <br data-mce-fragment="1">A D-ring for attaching the gaiter is located at the top of the toe, and Velcro is located at the heel.
■ Heel lock structure <br data-mce-fragment="1">A rear sling is placed to stabilize the heel even during long periods of use.
■ Toe cap <br data-mce-fragment="1">Rubber on the toe area protects the foot from external impacts.
■ Recycled mesh lining
Breathable mesh lining made from 100% recycled materials.
■ EVA insole <br data-mce-fragment="1">Lightweight and highly cushioned EVA foam insole.
■ Recycled mesh footbed cover with Cleansport NXT™ anti-odor treatment
Breathable mesh footbed cover made from 100% recycled materials and treated with Cleansport NXT™ odor resistance.
■ FLEXCONNECT™
The structure has assist lines running vertically and horizontally to smooth out flexion of the foot in all directions, making it easier to grip the ground.
■ ESS lock plate
The forefoot side of the entire sole is equipped with an ESS foam rock plate that protects the bottom of the foot and prevents impacts from the ground. It also contributes to the "surface stability" of the sole of the foot.
■ FLOATPRO™ Midsole <br data-mce-fragment="1">This EVA foam has excellent cushioning properties and is both lightweight and durable, which are contradictory properties. It is lightweight yet provides long-lasting rebound elasticity, sustaining performance. To reduce the burden on the environment, it is made using a "waste-free manufacturing process" and is made from TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) material, which is easier to recycle.
■ Vibram MEGAGRIP outsole <br data-mce-fragment="1">A high-performance compound grip from Vibram, a world-renowned Italian sole manufacturer. Provides outstanding grip on wet surfaces and uneven terrain.
■ Vibram TRACTION LUG Lug shape The fine protrusions of Vibram's latest patented lug shape provide better grip. The increased surface area enhances stability and improves traction.
