NOVA 2 GORE-TEX
NOVA 2 GORE-TEX is the waterproof Nova 2 trail runner, also positioned for hiking. An Invisible Fit membrane sits with the mesh and TPU-reinforced upper to address wet conditions without a bulky waterproof build. EVA cushioning and Merrell's heel air cushion support landings, while an internal rock plate adds underfoot protection. The Vibram TC5+ outsole uses 5 mm lugs for grip across varied outdoor surfaces.
