MERRELL Nova 3 Men´s Trail Running Shoes

Elevate your trail running experience with the MERRELL Nova 3, the next generation of our legendary men´s trail running shoe, engineered for superior performance and all-day comfort on the most demanding terrain. Designed for the neutral runner seeking a reliable and dynamic partner for their off-road adventures, the Nova 3 combines cutting-edge technology with trail-tested durability to help you conquer every mile with confidence.

Our best-selling men´s trail running shoe just got better in the Nova 3.

Key updates include a more durable upper for over foot protection, a softer and more responsive midsole with FloatPro Foam™ pods strategically placed under the heel and forefoot where you need extra cushion the most, and a new grip-enhancing design to the outsole made by our partners at Vibram®.

The Nova 3 updates will ensure you´re comfortable and capable when you make your miles wild on trail.

Key Benefits & Features:

Responsive Cushioning for Endless Energy: Experience a revolutionary ride with the enhanced midsole featuring our lightweight FloatPro Foam™. We´ve strategically placed extra cushioning pods in the heel and forefoot, absorbing impact where you need it most and providing a springy, responsive feel that propels you forward. This design reduces fatigue and keeps your legs feeling fresh, even on long-distance runs.

Unyielding Grip and Traction: Master technical terrain, wet rock, and loose dirt with the newly designed Vibram® TC5+ outsole. Developed in partnership with the leaders in performance rubber, this grip-enhancing outsole features aggressive, multi-directional traction lugs that bite into the ground, offering unparalleled stability and control on both ascents and descents. Run with the assurance that your footing is secure in any condition.

Durable, Breathable Protection: The Nova 3 features a redesigned, more durable synthetic and mesh upper that provides exceptional over-foot protection from rocks, roots, and other trail debris without sacrificing breathability. An integrated rock plate offers an additional layer of underfoot security, shielding you from sharp objects, while the protective toe cap adds reinforcement in a high-wear area.

Locked-In Comfort and Fit: Built on a standard fit last, the Nova 3 offers a secure yet comfortable experience right out of the box. The padded collar and tongue prevent irritation, and the traditional lace closure allows for a fully customised, locked-in fit. The shoe´s construction is designed to move with your foot, providing a natural and unrestrictive stride.
