FAQs

Are these shoes truly waterproof?

Yes, the Karrimor Mount Low Walking Shoes feature a Weathertite waterproof and breathable membrane bootie lining, designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions like rain, puddles, and damp trails.

What kind of activities are these shoes suitable for?

These shoes are ideal for walking, light hiking, daily wear, and general outdoor activities on varied terrain, especially in damp or wet conditions. They offer good support and grip for well-maintained trails and paths.

How do I clean the suede material?

For routine cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a product specifically designed for suede footwear, following the manufacturer's instructions. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

Do I need to 'break in' these shoes?

While often comfortable right out of the box due to the cushioned insole and FrameFlex Chassis, it's always recommended to wear new walking shoes for shorter periods on less demanding terrain before undertaking long walks to allow them to conform to your feet.

What is the Dynagrip MT007 sole?

The Dynagrip MT007 sole unit is Karrimor's proprietary outsole technology designed to provide enhanced traction and durability. It features a specific lug pattern that offers reliable grip on various surfaces, from dry paths to wet and muddy trails.

Are these shoes breathable?

Yes, while waterproof, the Weathertite membrane is also breathable, allowing moisture vapor (sweat) from inside the shoe to escape, which helps to keep your feet comfortable and reduce overheating.

Troubleshooting

My feet are getting wet despite the waterproof claim.

First, check for any visible damage to the upper or sole. Ensure your socks aren't wicking water in from the top of the shoe (e.g., from rain running down your leg). The Weathertite membrane is effective, but prolonged submersion or damage can compromise it. Consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the outer material.

The shoes feel uncomfortable after a long walk.

Ensure you have the correct size and width; feet can swell during activity. Verify your lacing technique for proper support without being too tight. If discomfort persists, consider trying different insoles that offer more personalized arch support or cushioning for your foot type.

The grip on wet surfaces seems poor.

Regularly clean the Dynagrip sole unit to remove embedded dirt, mud, or small stones, as these can reduce traction. Ensure the tread pattern isn't excessively worn down, as this indicates it might be time to consider replacing the shoes.

The suede upper looks dirty or stained.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, apply a suede cleaner according to the product's instructions. Avoid rubbing vigorously, which can damage the nap of the suede. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable waterproofing for wet environments.
  • Excellent grip and stability on varied terrain.
  • Comfortable for extended wear due to cushioning and chassis support.
  • Durable construction with quality materials.

Cons

  • Suede upper requires specific cleaning and care to prevent damage.
  • May not offer sufficient ankle support for highly technical or extreme hiking.
  • Breathability might be less than non-waterproof shoes in very hot, dry conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & First Use

  1. Unpack: Remove the shoes from their packaging.
  2. Lacing: Ensure laces are threaded through all eyelets. Loosen them fully before putting your foot in.
  3. Fit Check: Put on your preferred walking socks. Insert your foot, ensuring your heel is firmly against the back of the shoe. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
  4. Lace Up: Tighten the laces from the toes upwards, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit. Double knot for security.
  5. Break-in: While often comfortable from the start, a short break-in period on less demanding terrain is recommended before undertaking long walks.

Compatibility

These shoes are primarily designed for:

  • Walking: Daily walks, park strolls, urban exploration.
  • Light Hiking: Well-maintained trails, forest paths, gentle inclines.
  • Wet Weather: Ideal for damp conditions, light rain, and dewy grass.

They are not intended for heavy mountaineering, technical climbing, or extreme cold weather conditions.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the suede and textile upper, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and debris. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing vigorously.
  • Drying: If shoes become wet, remove insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or open fires) which can damage materials.
  • Waterproofing Maintenance: While the Weathertite membrane provides initial waterproofing, regular application of a water-repellent spray designed for suede/textile footwear can help maintain the outer material's water resistance and prevent waterlogging.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
