Merrell – Outdoor feeling, freedom and function since 1981. Merrell is a global leading brand in outdoor footwear, with a clear vision: to share the simple yet powerful feeling of being out in nature. No matter who you are, how you move or where you come from – Merrell believes that the outdoors should be open and accessible to everyone.
The company was founded in 1981 by Clark Matis and John Schweizer, former Rossignol executives, who wanted to create a new type of hiking boot. Merrell has been owned by Wolverine World Wide since 1997, but the core philosophy remains the same: to create footwear that exceeds expectations in terms of performance, durability and versatility. The footwear is rigorously tested to withstand all types of terrain – from hiking trails to urban environments – and inspires people to explore the outdoors with confidence and freedom.
Merrell also works actively with inclusion and sustainability – to make everyone feel welcome on the trail, and to protect the nature we walk in.
