These shoes are not waterproof. While the suede leather can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to rain is not recommended and may damage the material. The Vibram sole offers good traction, but the suede upper is not designed for wet conditions.

The Vibram outsole is engineered for durability and superior traction. Its design features distinct zones for flexibility and independent lug deflection, which enhances grip and reduces weight, particularly on rocky or uneven terrain.

Regularly brush the suede with a soft brush to remove dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions. It's best to protect them from heavy rain and moisture.
