FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, the waterproof construction is designed to protect against rain and wet ground conditions.
Can I use these for trail running?
While they provide great support, they are primarily designed for walking and hiking rather than high-intensity trail running.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth for deeper cleaning. Avoid submerging them in water.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, always account for the thickness of the socks you plan to wear while hiking.
Is the outsole non-marking?
Yes, the Omni-Grip rubber is non-marking, making these suitable for indoor use or gym settings if needed.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
Clean the tread patterns on the Omni-Grip outsole with a stiff brush to remove dried mud and trapped debris.
Discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing tension or try a different lacing technique to better distribute pressure across the top of the foot.
Reduced breathability during warm days
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool hiking socks rather than cotton, which traps sweat.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best initial experience, ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of hiking socks during your first few walks to allow the leather to mold naturally to your foot shape. To maintain the waterproof capabilities and appearance, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth for deeper cleaning. If the shoes become soaked, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can damage the leather and the adhesives holding the sole. Periodically inspect the outsole for embedded debris to maintain consistent traction performance.
