FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Moab Speed 2 Leather Waterproof is designed with a standard fit. While the leather can stretch slightly over time, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. Consider trying them on or looking for models specifically offered in wide widths if available.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Gently clean with a soft brush to remove dirt. Use a damp cloth with mild soap if necessary, and allow to air dry. Periodically apply a leather conditioner or waterproofing treatment designed for nubuck leather.
What is the expected lifespan of these hiking shoes?
With proper care and regular use on moderate trails, these shoes can last several years. Lifespan depends heavily on the frequency of use, terrain, and maintenance.
Can I use these shoes for everyday wear?
Yes, the Moab Speed 2 Leather Waterproof offers comfort and style that makes them suitable for casual everyday wear, especially in variable weather conditions.
Are the laces and footbed easily replaceable?
Yes, both the laces and the removable EVA foam footbed can be replaced if they become worn or if you wish to use custom insoles.
What makes the Vibram® TC5+ outsole unique?
The Vibram® TC5+ outsole is engineered for optimal all-around performance, providing excellent grip on dry and wet surfaces, stability, and durability, while its design helps to shed mud and debris efficiently.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable after first wear
Allow for a break-in period of a few hikes. Wear them around the house first to help them conform to your feet. Consider thicker or thinner socks depending on fit.
Water seeping into the shoes
Check for damage to the waterproof membrane or seams. Ensure laces are tied snugly. Reapply a waterproofing treatment to the exterior leather and stitching.
Reduced traction on slippery surfaces
Clean the outsole treads of any mud or debris. The Vibram® TC5+ outsole is designed for grip, but extreme conditions may still pose challenges. Ensure you are walking with appropriate technique.
Excessive sweating or moisture inside the shoe
Ensure the breathable mesh lining is not obstructed. Use moisture-wicking hiking socks. Allow shoes to air out completely after each use.
