Why We Like The Merrell MTL Long Sky 2 Matryx Trail Running Shoe
Light and streamlined yet packed with moxie, the Merrell MTL Long Sky 2 Matryx Trail Running Shoe takes us to the skyline and beyond. The mesh upper features Kevlar threads to boost durability, not weight, while still giving our hardworking feet max airflow and drying off quick after we splash through a water crossing. As we leave the valley behind and start gaining vert, the Vibram Megagrip outsole claws into the earth, making sure every stride counts, and the plush midsole foam keeps the ground feeling soft even after we've reached the rocky ridgeline.

Favorite Trail Shoes Yet!
Second pair of these! My favorite for race day but I’ve taken them everywhere and loved them. Does really well with drainage but had enough cushion for rocky trails. Max distance I would use them for is a 50k. The fit was perfect and I didn’t experience any hot spots or breakdown in the upper. Even with the white color, they still scrubbed up nicely

Disappointed
I have about 70 miles on these shoes now and I have to say, I’m not a fan at all. I have owned dozens of Merrell shoes and these shoes have messed my feet up. I’m an avid trail runner and obstacle course racer, and I have never before had so many issues from shoes. Two bruised toenails (which never happens to me) and the tops of my feet hurt constantly when I wear these almost as if the laces are too tight, but they’re not. I have to take a week off and wear other shoes for the pain to go away and as soon as I wear them it appears again. I have relegated these to short dirt track workouts because I just can’t wear them very long. I wanted to like these so much more than I do. On paper, they are exactly what I was looking for/need for competitive trail racing/OCR, but in reality they’re feet killers. I wish they would just go back to making the original agility synthesis flex. The traction and grip are amazing, they fit the same as the other Merrells, and are stylish— I will say that. The shoe itself is stiff in order to get the toughness for the trail from it. I’m guessing the stiffness is what’s leading to the pain on my feet, not enough give for the flexion of running.

Great for trail running
Great trail shoe! Didn’t have to break them in. Already hit 30+ miles right after I got them. Did a trail marathon and they held up well! The handle is amazing and they give me confidence out on the trails. Highly recommend

Light, Fast, and Tough
This is my favorite running shoe, from training runs to competing at Skyrunning World Championships 70k - I love how grippy, lightweight, and rugged this shoe is. It makes me feel light and fast, but has the durability to keep my feet unharmed on rocky, technical trail.

Great traction and comfort for CROSSFIT
These shoes are LONG, too long but I love them. I am ran a 4 mile trail run, and I use them for crossfit metcons and some weightlifting. You can order a 1/2 size smaller on these because of the length.
