Merrell Hydro Free Roam Junior Sandal

This innovative crossover between a sneaker and a water shoe matches a durable construction to a barefoot feel that encourages kids to explore with all their senses.

Mesh Upper

Constructed to support the wearer in and out of the water, the Merrell Hydro Free Roam combines a water-friendly upper with a durable design for excellent all-day wear. The mesh upper allows water to pass in and out enabling the shoe to dry quickly due to aeration holes which makes the upper water-friendly; the perfect shoe for explorations on and off the land. The Hydro Free Roam shoes feature an alternative closure which provides a secure fit allowing a confident secure step every time. The closure system also allows easy on and take-off access for a super comfortable fit. These visionary sandals/shoes feature a collapsible heel for an instant slip-on fit; great for getting out on adventures quicker and easy than ever before.

EVA Midsole

Providing all-day comfort the Hydro Free Roam Sandal effectively cushions the foot due to the addition of the soft EVA molded midsole. The Midsole encourages a more comfortable step every time for undeniable comfort for whatever the day has in store. The multi-functional midsole is designed to keep your feet healthy and feeling good on the trails. The EVA injected into the midsole will ensure that you won't feel any discomfort from heavy and sharp contacts from below. This is because the EVA is extremely good at absorbing shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from reaching the sole of the foot and causing any damage to it. As well as this, the midsole will provide cushioning on every step that you take, which will improve the comfort of the shoes, as well as reduce the risk of injury by taking less stress off joints like the knees, ankles, and bones in the feet. This will mean that you will fatigue less, maximising the amount of activity that you could achieve.

Rubber Outsole

Delivering supremely strong and durable grip on mixed terrain, the outsole will keep you firmly in control. Able to form a solid bond with any type of surface, the rubber will hold form a strong bond with the ground beneath it to anchor you in place. The rubber is also highly durable, which will mean that it will stand up against abuse, maintaining its shape and definition for long-term functionality. Completing the outsole is its super flexible nature giving the sandals a barefoot feel and allows them to be extra packable for taking on multi-day adventures.
