Merrell Future 40 Launches the Nova 2 Collection

With nowhere to go in the past months, I’d almost forgotten about shoes. 

Until recently, I’d steadfastly ridden the slob-chic aesthetic trend: bare feet completing my pyjama shorts and business casual top combo. But now that vaccines are rolling in, I’ve become determined to finally get back into shape for adventures close at hand. 

Evidently, trips nowadays are unpredictable; so, having a versatile pair of shoes is a must. Long known for both its outdoor and lifestyle performance, Merrell proves to be an empowering partner for today’s transitions. 

This 2021, Merrell celebrates its 40th anniversary with its Nova 2 Collection. Made up of light and athletic kicks that go from city streets to mountains, this shoe line is certainly set on leading travellers towards the future.

Meet Merrell’s Future 40 Nova 2 Collection

Whether you’re a newbie runner or a seasoned athlete, the Merrell Nova 2 Collection can definitely support your needs. Described as “a line of two lightweight models equipped with hiker-like durability,” Nova 2 supports all kinds of outdoor adventures.

Breathable and lightweight, the Nova 2 in Black and Brick is your best pick for outdoor running. Built with shock-absorbing foam cushioning and TrailProtect™ Rock plate, these models remain comfortable through fast sprints and long runs — even over unpaved trails. Their minimal low-cut design also makes them a multipurpose pair you can wear while casually trotting the streets.
