Why We Like The Merrell MTL Skyfire 2 Matryx Trail Running Shoe
Light and fast, the Merrell MTL Skyfire 2 Matryx Trail Running Shoe helps us move quickly through mountains, deserts, and forests. These low-profile trail runners boast a breathable engineered mesh upper reinforced with TPU overlays that wrap around our foot securely via recycled laces. This breathable and durable upper wicks sweat off of our feet so that we can rely on the stability of the FlexPlate technology and the response of the FloatPro dual density midsole. Finally, the Vibram MegaGrip outsole effortlessly grips everything from sand to loam to help us stay focused on our pace, route, or final destination.

Solid shoe
Great shoe. I went 1/2 size above my normal running shoes and I am glad I did. These are very lightweight but seem durable. My runs so far have been enjoyable. I haven’t taken them on rough terrain yet, just track, field and treadmill.

Top shoes
Best running shoes ever. If only more choice in colour but that is not important hopefully Merrell keep making them.

Sick! but blisterland

So stoked with these shoes out of the box. Super light, comfortable and asking for a go. However, hot spot on outside right of heal started after a mile and a half and fill on gimp running at mile two trying to compensate. I can't remember the last time I got a blister, maybe breaking in a pair of golf shoes in the mid 90's. Seriously hoping I can callus up in this spot because the lightness and traction were exactly what I was looking for.

Great light light weight trail race shoe
Hands down the best race trail shoe in the market for mid distance (half marathon).

Great for clinical settings
I walk approximately 5 miles a day in a clinical setting and these have been a great choice. Comfortable, breathable & extremely light weight with awesome arch support. Plus the color pops with scrubs!

The Matryx Difference
I ran in the regular Skyfire 2s for the last 250 trail miles and they were good, but not great, the upper materials were stiff and jagged especially by the tongue, the Matryx upper changes this completely! Different tongue design altogether and this shoe seem wider in the toe box, which is welcome considering how narrow most trail shoes are nowadays, including the regular Skyfire 2. I've had Matryx uppers in other brands and it is pretty bulletproof, they always outlast the midsoles by a significant amount of time. Just give me slightly longer laces and a 4mm offset and it would be a perfect shoe for me! Still getting 5 stars though.

Love these shoes
I love these shoes! I have a wider foot and Merrills have always been a good fit. But I also don't like a lot of shoe under my foot. These are perfect: Light, Comfortable, Stable, Grip well......just great

Super light, snappy feel, great purchase. Highly r
I bought this shoe as an alternative to Speedland, On, Craft and Solomon. The shoe fits me extremely well with plenty of toe box space. They feel super light and snappy which I appreciate on the trail. I can't even wear the Speedlands now (I also got the carbon fiber insert for the Speedlands) and they were a huge expense. I am very happy with this purchase.
