The Merrell Chameleon is very popular amongst loyal the Merrell fan base. So popular that Merrell has over 15 designs of the Chameleon’s. Here are the reasons why they are ranked amongst the top shoes in the world.
The Chameleon’s provide the best off-road traction available. Combined with the maximum support and a fashionable style. The Chameleon is great because it offers similar technology in all designs, by doing this Merrell establishes a consistency amongst all their models while at the same time offering subtle differences for each individual.
The Merrell Chameleon is designed to provide the best support and comfort for your feet. Under the footbed runs an air cushion that completes the length of the shoes midsole. This is some of the most innovative high-tech technology out there for support and comfort. It cushions the heel when it makes contact with the ground and takes the shock out of the heel/ground contact. The Chameleon footbed comes equipped with a moulded insole that adds 4.5mm of cushioning under your foot.
Another high-tech technology that is extremely effective is the Vibram rubber soles. Vibram rubber is the same rubber that extreme rock climbers use when climbing. The material is highly durable and effective no matter what terrain you come across. Another perk about the Chameleon is that they are also designed very lightweight and breathable. This keeps your foot dry and not worn out by a heavy shoe.
Next to hydration and food, taking care of your feet is probably the most important consideration when trekking into the wilderness. This is certainly true in many aspects because our feet are like the tires on a car. If one tire is flat the car is not going anywhere. Merrell has kept this in mind. In fact, it is one of the reasons the Chameleon’s are so popular. They are the shoes that will protect your feet the best.
