MERRELL has always embodied iconic shoe designs that are playful yet prioritize functionality, adapting to diverse environments. Among these, the "HYDRO MOC," whose distinctive design inspired by the lines of flowing water became a worldwide sensation, gained popularity as a pioneer in the foam sandal trend. Inheriting and evolving that DNA, the next-generation "HYDRO NEXT GEN" series will be released in spring 2024. The "HYDRO NEXT GEN MOC" features "BLOOM" foam, a sustainable material made from algal biomass, for its upper, and a newly improved heel structure allows for smooth on and off. Furthermore, the highly cushioned "FLOATMAX" foam midsole enhances comfort. With a rubber outsole on the contact surface to improve traction and durability, an all-terrain "HYDRO MOC" has been born. The concept behind the evolved "HYDRO NEXT GEN" series upper form is inspired by "Water Flowing over Rocks." ＜MERRELL＞ In 1981, Randy Merrell started manufacturing hiking shoes with the goal of creating "the perfect hiking shoe," thus establishing "MERRELL." With signature models like the "JUNGLE MOC" and serious trail shoes like the "CHAMELEON," it transcended the boundaries of an outdoor brand and became widely known to the public. Today, it offers a wide range of outdoor apparel and backpacks.
