Merrell M-Hydro Blaze Junior Sandals

Enjoy the durability and functionality of a walking shoe without the full construction to allow your feet to breathe with the Merrell M-Hydro Blaze Junior Sandals.

Quick-Dry Upper

Ideal for wear on the beach or other uncertain terrains, the material on the upper of the sandals has quick-dry webbing. This will mean that as soon as it is exposed to moisture, the material will immediately leap into action, repelling all the water away from it. Once the moisture is wicked away, it will then quickly dry off, returning the straps to their original weight and feel. A combination of three different hook and loop straps surrounding different parts of the feet will make it easy to find a secure and comfortable fit that will keep the sandal firmly in place. The straps are designed to be extremely strong and durable, allowing you to complete active movements without the risk of damage to the upper of the sandals. An ultra-soft EVA footbed will provide soft next to skin comfort and padding for the sole of the foot.

Cushioned EVA Midsole

With supreme cushioning guaranteed from the midsole, the injected EVA will reduce the risk of injuries and fatigue, allowing you to push yourself further. The top half of the EVA will reduce the stress and weight placed on joints like the knees and ankles, as well as bones in the feet. As well as this, the midsole will protect the soles of the feet from impacts from below, for example on a beach if you step on a sharp rock, the EVA will instantly absorb the pressure. This will reduce the energy that reaches the sole of the foot, therefore protecting it. The energy created from the midsole flexing will be returned as rebound, which will give you an added spring in your step.

M-Select Outsole

Delivering supremely strong and durable grip on wet or dry mixed terrain, the M-Select Grip outsole will keep you firmly in control. Able to form a solid bond with any type of surface, the rubber will hold form a strong bond with the ground beneath it to anchor you in place. The rubber is also highly durable, which will mean that it will stand up against abuse, maintaining its shape and definition for long-term functionality. The lug design of the outsole will further anchor the shoes to the ground, especially if it is wet. By digging into the surface, the lugs will improve takeoffs, landings and changes of direction, giving you the confidence to tackle any surface.
