This spring, pink is expected to be a popular trend with the new Barbie movie, the Eras Tour, and Coachella outfits.
As evidence of this, the “Barbiecore” trend is already gaining popularity. To capitalize on this trend, Merrell has collaborated with London-based Sweaty Betty to release a limited edition hot pink version of its best-selling women’s trail running shoe, the Antora 3.
The collaboration is based on shared values of empowering women to get outdoors and move their bodies. The Antora 3 x Sweaty Betty shoe features the Sweaty Betty logo on the tongue and offers a more durable upper for over foot protection, a softer and more responsive midsole with FloatPro Foam™ pods, and a new grip-enhancing design by Vibram®.
The shoe also includes features such as a padded collar, an external rear sling, a rock plate for protection, and cushioning pods for the forefoot and heel, among others.
This update ensures that wearers are comfortable and capable on the trails, and the shoe is versatile enough to take from the trail to brunch, Coachella, the movies, and back.

- Breathable mesh and TPU upper
- 100% recycled laces and webbing
