FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The ASICS GEL-TRANSCEND FJ features a leather construction which offers some water resistance, but they are not classified as waterproof.

Are these suitable for long-distance backpacking?

These are best suited for light hiking and walking. For heavy backpacking with a large load, a more rigid, dedicated hiking boot may be preferred.

How do I maintain the leather finish?

Regularly clean off dirt and apply a leather-specific conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent drying.

Do these come in other widths?

The models provided are standard width. The leather construction will provide some natural stretch over time.

Can I use these for road running?

While they feature cushioning, they are optimized for hiking and outdoor walking; dedicated running shoes are recommended for road running.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short intervals at home with thick socks to help the material soften and mold to your foot.

Accumulation of mud in outsoles

Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove debris from the lugs after your hike to ensure the grip remains effective.

Visible scuffs on leather

Use a leather conditioner matching the brown color to hydrate the material and buff out surface scuffs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent underfoot comfort provided by FLYTEFOAM technology
  • Versatile design suitable for both trail hiking and casual everyday wear
  • Durable leather material provides robust protection
  • Reliable grip on varied terrain derived from proven trail-running tooling

Cons

  • Leather material may require a break-in period compared to synthetic mesh shoes
  • Heavier than specialized lightweight trail runners
  • Not fully waterproof; requires leather protection for wet environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Fit:

These shoes are designed to fit true to size. Ensure you wear appropriate hiking socks to account for the thickness of the leather upper. For the best comfort, wear the shoes indoors for short periods initially to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt and mud using a soft, dry brush after every hike.
  2. Stain Removal: Use a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Avoid soaking the leather.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
  4. Protection: Apply a leather-specific water-repellent spray if you plan on hiking in damp conditions to extend the lifespan and maintain the aesthetic of the material.
