Product Information

Full details

This grey adidas TERREX hiking shoe is designed for women seeking comfort and protection on outdoor tours. Its key benefit is RAIN.RDY technology, ensuring your feet stay dry and warm in adverse weather. A potential caveat is that sizing on labels might differ from UK sizes, so trying them on is recommended. The shoe features a durable, waterproof mesh upper, a cushioned midsole for comfort on rough terrain, and a non-slip outsole for optimal grip. Key features include recycled material content, abrasion resistance, and a gusseted tongue for added protection.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

The RAIN.RDY technology provides warmth and dryness in wet conditions, making them suitable for damp winter hikes. However, they are not insulated for extreme cold and may not provide sufficient warmth or grip on snow and ice.

How do I clean the waterproof mesh upper?

Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and water. Rinse gently and allow to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.

Will these shoes keep my feet completely dry in heavy rain?

The RAIN.RDY technology offers excellent water resistance, but prolonged submersion or very heavy, driving rain might eventually lead to some moisture ingress, especially if the shoe's seals are compromised. They are designed to keep feet dry during typical hiking conditions.

What is the main benefit of the EVA midsole?

The EVA midsole provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, which helps to reduce foot fatigue over long distances and on hard, uneven terrain.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or different insoles for personalized comfort and support.

Are these shoes good for running?

These shoes are designed primarily for hiking and walking. While they offer good traction and cushioning, they lack the specific features and flexibility typically found in dedicated running shoes.

How much recycled content is in these shoes?

The upper material contains at least 50% recycled content as part of adidas's commitment to reducing plastic waste.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite RAIN.RDY

Ensure the shoes are properly laced and the tongue is seated correctly to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any damage to the upper material that might compromise waterproofing. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be compromised.

Slipping on certain surfaces

Clean the outsole to remove any mud or debris that might be hindering traction. On extremely slick surfaces like polished wet rock, caution is still advised. Ensure the fit is secure; loose shoes can contribute to a feeling of instability.

Discomfort during long walks

Verify the shoe size and fit are correct. Try adjusting the lacing to distribute pressure more evenly. Consider using aftermarket insoles for enhanced cushioning if needed. Break in the shoes on shorter walks before undertaking very long hikes.

Upper material showing wear

Regularly clean the shoes to remove dirt that can abrade materials. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive abrasion. For minor wear on synthetic overlays, a repair adhesive might offer a temporary fix.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing with RAIN.RDY technology.
  • Comfortable cushioning for long hikes.
  • Reliable grip on various outdoor surfaces.
  • Durable construction with abrasion-resistant materials.
  • Environmentally conscious design with recycled content.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for hiking; may not be ideal for highly technical climbing or running.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

These hiking shoes are ready for adventure straight out of the box. Ensure you try them on to confirm the fit, as the UK size is the most accurate for purchase. For best results, lace them up to achieve a snug, secure feel before your first outing.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For the mesh upper, a soft brush can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Waterproofing Maintenance: While RAIN.RDY provides inherent waterproofing, periodic treatment with a suitable waterproofing spray can help maintain the upper's performance, especially after extensive use.
  • Socks: Wearing moisture-wicking hiking socks is recommended to complement the shoe's performance and enhance comfort.

Compatibility:

These shoes are designed for hiking and general outdoor activities. They are compatible with standard hiking socks and are suitable for use on most natural terrains.
