Are these shoes suitable for serious hiking?

The matte and semi-gloss synthetic layers are used to resemble the raw, rugged textures found in nature, contributing to the shoe's unique urban trail look.
How should I clean the synthetic layers?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the synthetic layers. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Try loosening the laces and re-lacing them to allow for a more customized fit. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe's shape doesn't suit your foot.
Slight discoloration on synthetic layers
This may be an intended aesthetic feature. If it appears to be dirt, attempt to clean with a damp cloth as per care instructions. Avoid excessive scrubbing.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
The grip may vary depending on the surface. Ensure the soles are clean. For improved traction on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider using the shoes for their intended urban trail purpose rather than extreme conditions.
