FAQs
Are these boots suitable for winter hiking?
While RAIN.RDY provides waterproofing, these boots are not heavily insulated and are best suited for milder or wet conditions rather than deep snow or extreme cold.
What is the main advantage of RAIN.RDY technology?
RAIN.RDY technology makes the footwear waterproof, ensuring your feet stay dry and comfortable in wet weather conditions.
How much recycled material is used in the upper?
The upper contains a minimum of 50% recycled content, contributing to a reduction in plastic waste.
Can I wear these shoes for trail running?
These are designed as hiking shoes, offering more support and durability for walking. While they can handle light trail running, dedicated trail running shoes would provide better performance and cushioning for that specific activity.
What is the purpose of the EVA midsole?
The EVA midsole provides cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to comfort during long walks and helping to reduce foot fatigue.
How do I ensure the best fit?
It is recommended to try the boots on before purchasing, ideally in the afternoon when feet may be slightly swollen. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and that the heel does not lift excessively when walking.
Are these boots waterproof or water-resistant?
These boots feature RAIN.RDY technology, which provides a waterproof barrier to keep your feet dry from external moisture.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp despite claiming to be waterproof.
Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent water seeping in at the ankle collar. Check for any tears or damage to the RAIN.RDY membrane. If the boots have been submerged for extended periods, some water ingress may occur.
Traction is poor on slippery surfaces.
The Traxion outsole is designed for grip, but performance can be affected by mud or debris buildup. Clean the outsole tread after each use. Consider if the surface exceeds the intended grip capabilities of the footwear.
Discomfort or rubbing after first few uses.
These boots may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase the length of wear. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Adjust lacing for a better fit.
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure laces are tied with a secure knot. Consider double-knotting them for added security. Replace laces if they are worn or slippery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots require no specific setup beyond lacing them up. Ensure the laces are tightened evenly for a secure and comfortable fit, adjusting as needed during your activity.
Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities including hiking, trekking, and general trail walking. They are designed for adult use.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While RAIN.RDY is a durable technology, consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for hiking footwear periodically to maintain optimal water resistance, especially after extensive use or cleaning.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably with good ventilation.
