FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, the GTX designation indicates they feature a Gore-Tex membrane designed to be both waterproof and breathable.
Can I use these for road running?
While you can, they are specifically optimized for trail terrain. The aggressive lugs may wear down faster on asphalt.
How do I tighten the laces?
Simply pull the toggle cord upwards to tighten and slide the locking mechanism down to secure it against the shoe.
Are they true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to allow a small amount of space for thicker hiking socks.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Wipe with a damp cloth or soft sponge using mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could degrade the technical fabric.
Troubleshooting
Lace toggle slipping during use
Ensure the toggle teeth are free of grit and debris by rinsing with clean water.
Accumulated dirt in tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove compacted mud from the lug patterns to restore traction.
Stiffness after storage
Flex the shoes manually or wear them for short walks to allow the materials to regain their natural flexibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the lace-up toggle is adjusted evenly across the bridge of your foot; avoid over-tightening which may cause pressure points. These trainers are designed for trail-specific activity and are compatible with standard hiking socks. For care, remove debris after each use by tapping the outsoles together. If they become heavily soiled, hand wash them with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Always air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent damage to the Gore-Tex membrane and adhesive components.
