MERRELL Hydro Slide 2

Description of item

The Hydro Moc series, whose distinctive design has become a hot topic around the world and has gained popularity as a pioneer of the foam sandal trend, is now available as an updated model of the Hydro Slide, which was originally released as a slide type.

MERRELL has embodied iconic shoe designs that are suitable for a variety of environments, using forms that are playful yet prioritize functionality.

The concept of the upper form is inspired by the image of "Water Flowing over Rocks". The upper material is made of "BLOOM™" foam, a sustainable material made from algae biomass, and the slide design makes it easy to put on and take off.

Material

■ EVA Upper Lightweight EVA foam upper with a flexible fit. Easy to clean and perfect for water activities.

■ BLOOM™
A plant-based EVA foam material containing 10% algae biomass. Due to the effects of global warming in recent years, the proliferation of algae in lakes has become an issue, affecting the ecosystem of aquatic organisms. To solve this problem, algae biomass extracted from algae collected during the water purification process is converted into chips and mixed into EVA to create a highly flexible foam material. It also returns purified water to the algae's habitat, and as a substitute for petroleum-based materials, it reduces CO2 emissions.

■ EVA foam Lightweight EVA foam with excellent cushioning and stability, with improved elasticity compared to the midsole.

■ EVA foam outsole EVA outsole with durability and grip that can function as an outsole.

■ Vegan friendlyProducts that do not use ingredients of animal origin.
