FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the Glenclyffe features a protective design, they are primarily built for urban exploration and are not explicitly marketed as fully waterproof footwear.
Are the Glenclyffe boots unisex?
Yes, these are designed as unisex boots, though sizing is provided in standard UK adult sizes.
Can I use these for light hiking?
Yes, the design is inspired by approach shoes, making them capable of handling light trails and uneven terrain alongside city use.
How do I ensure a proper fit?
The boots should feel snug but not restrictive; use the metal lacing hardware to achieve a precise, locked-in fit tailored to your foot shape.
What materials are used for the exterior?
The construction includes durable reinforced toe caps, TPU heel cages, and high-quality materials depending on the specific model variant.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose in the heel
Adjust the lacing system to ensure the tension is evenly distributed across the midfoot and top of the instep to seat the heel into the TPU cage.
Traction seems reduced in icy conditions
Check the outsole for lodged debris or packed mud in the lug patterns, which can reduce surface contact; brush clean with warm water.
Pros and Cons

- Excellent traction on slick sidewalks

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, adjust the lacing through the rust-proof metal components to account for the thickness of your socks. Given their technical nature, these boots are best paired with mid-weight hiking socks for optimal comfort. For care, keep the boots clean by wiping them with a damp cloth after exposure to mud or heavy city grime. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove debris from the 6 mm lugs to maintain traction effectiveness. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as this may compromise the bonding materials and structural integrity of the TPU heel cage.
