Merrell's everyday trail runner for men. The Nova 4 is the shoe for regular trail miles: cushioned enough to be comfortable, grippy enough for real terrain, and not so specialised that it only works on technical ground.
Breathable mesh upper, a cushioned midsole, and a lugged outsole that holds on dirt and loose rock.
A good first trail shoe if you are stepping off the road. The women's version is the Antora 4.
