Merrell Sylva Tall Waterproof Women's Walking Shoes Tackle the elements without sacrificing style in the waterproof insulated Sylva with double trap tie front, inside zip, and an extra comfy footbed. Upper M Select DRY technology acts as a waterproof barrier between you and the elements; sealing out water but letting moisture escape. So you remain dry AND comfortable, not clammy. The waterproof leather and fabric upper means extra durability, so you needn't be wary about where you choose to wander. The inside zipper means you can have the boots off and be by the fire in no time; no tricky clasps just easy on-and-off. M Select WARM technology cooperates with a conductor fleece lining to supply you with lightweight, low bulk insulation and added warmth for those bitter days. The fleece lining is treated with M Select FRESH, to keep any offensive odours at bay. A faux fur collar completes the upper, for a luxurious extra-cosy feel. Midsole You will find an M Select MOVE footbed in the midsole; enhancing overall comfort and reducing friction for a secure and stabilised stride. The lightweight, moulded nylon arch shank means your feet stay stable and supported as you trudge up inclines; reducing any strain on the feet or calves. Outsole An air cushion features in the heel of the shoe to absorb shock and add stability, as you descend on tricky terrain or make risky landings. M-Select Grip completes the shoe. The grippy outsole delivers highly durable and slip-resistant stability on wet and dry ground, over mixed terrain.
