Comfy, Sturdy, Stylish

Merrell continues to improve the Nova every year. This latest iteration has a taller and wider foundation (kinda like Hoka's but much more stylish) that feels more planted to the ground. That said, because it is wider, it feels less agile for trail running in tight places and for quick turns, but way more stable for walking, standing, and jogging compared to Nova 3.

Good Looking. But Not A Serious Trail Shoe.

comfortable out of the box. looks good. but not a serious trail shoe. should fall under "light" for the trail rating. imo, midsole is too bouncy for proper ground feel (slightly improved with superfeet insole) and minimal confidence in lateral stability. the outsole is outstanding for dry, non-technical trails. however, the "grip" on wet rocks and/or roots is non-existent and borderline dangerous. not sure i've ever experienced a more slippery outsole. although i hate its billboard-sized branding, i should have gone with the Agility Peak 5 and the vibram megagrip sole.

Great Fit

I love the out of the box comfort and look. I hope they last longer than the Edge.

Not As Good As Nova 3s

as a fan of the Nova 3s, i bought these to replace a pair of Nova 3s that were worn. However once i wore them for a few days i realize they were no where near as good at the Nova 3s. They switched from Vibram soles to some new kind of rubber that isn't nearly as good. I ended up having to find some place that still sold the Nova 3s, wish Merrel had not messed with someone that were that good.
