FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, the waterproof membrane is designed to keep your feet dry in rainy conditions and when crossing wet terrain.
How do I clean the suede part of the shoes?
Use a suede brush for general cleaning. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
Will stones and dirt get into the shoes easily?
The gusseted tongue is designed to prevent debris from entering the shoe, providing a more comfortable experience on trails.
What type of terrain are these shoes best for?
These shoes are best suited for general walking and hiking on varied outdoor terrains, including trails, paths, and light off-road conditions.
How can I ensure the best fit?
Ensure you select the correct UK size. It is recommended to try them on with the type of socks you plan to wear for hiking to confirm comfort and fit.
Do I need to treat the waterproofing?
The waterproof membrane is integrated. However, maintaining the suede upper with appropriate treatments can help preserve the overall condition and performance of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp despite being waterproof
Ensure the tongue gussets are properly seated and check for any visible damage to the waterproof membrane. Excessive sweat can also lead to dampness; consider moisture-wicking socks.
Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for general grip. For extremely slippery conditions, consider the terrain and your walking speed. Ensure the outsole is clean, as mud can reduce grip.
Suede material looks worn or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner may be necessary. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Check the shoe size for a proper fit. Ensure socks are appropriate for hiking. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter walks before undertaking long hikes.
