Its robust construction makes it ideal for daily wear in cities, easily handling wet pavements, light snow, and uneven urban landscapes. The GORE-TEX membrane ensures your feet remain dry, making it a reliable choice for commuting in unpredictable weather or exploring on rainy days.

Activity: Ideal for daily wear, urban exploration, light hiking, and walking on varied terrains in all weather conditions.
Foot Type: Suitable for a wide range of foot types due to its adaptable lacing system and comfortable interior.
Gender/Age: Designed as a unisex adult shoe.
Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy conditions, gently brush off loose dirt. Use a soft cloth or sponge with lukewarm water and a mild soap (if necessary) to clean the upper. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive brushes.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators, dryers, or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials and adhesives. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help retain their shape.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Waterproofing Maintenance: While the GORE-TEX membrane is durable, you can occasionally refresh the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish on the outer fabric with a suitable shoe-specific spray if you notice water no longer beads up on the surface. Ensure the product is safe for GORE-TEX materials.
