FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

They are well-suited for wet and muddy conditions, but ensure you wear warm, thermal socks for cold-weather use as they are not insulated.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede and the waterproof membrane; please clean by hand using a soft brush.

How should I break them in?

Wear them for short walks on flat terrain for a few days to allow the suede and internal cushioning to conform to your foot shape.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed from durable suede, paired with a rubberized Dynagrip outsole and a shock-absorbing Phylon midsole.

Are these breathable?

Yes, they feature a breathable membrane designed to allow moisture vapor to escape while keeping liquid water out.

Troubleshooting

Water entering the shoe during heavy rain

Ensure the laces are tight to prevent water entry at the tongue and consider reapplying a waterproofing spray to the suede upper.

Slippage on very steep, slick rock

Clean the outsole treads of any caked-on mud or debris that may be obstructing the grip pattern.

Ankle discomfort during initial use

Adjust the tension of the speed laces and ensure you are wearing appropriate mid-height hiking socks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip on muddy terrain
  • Lightweight construction prevents fatigue
  • Effective waterproof protection
  • Supportive heel and ankle padding

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful cleaning
  • May feel stiff during the first few wears
  • Limited to specific female sizing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best results, ensure your hiking socks are moisture-wicking synthetic or wool blends to complement the breathable membrane. To lace the shoes, use the speed lacing system to distribute pressure evenly across the instep.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Allow mud to dry before gently brushing it off with a soft-bristled brush to preserve the suede texture.
  • Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the adhesive and rubber components from degrading.
  • Waterproofing: Periodically apply a suede-safe water-repellent spray to maintain the integrity of the outer layer.
