FAQs

What type of terrain are these shoes best suited for?

These shoes are designed for mixed terrains, including dirt paths, gravel trails, and moderate inclines. They offer a reliable grip for such conditions.

How do I clean my Helly Hansen Awe Hiker DWR shoes?

Clean with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution. Always air dry naturally away from heat.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, making them water-repellent for dry conditions or light rain. They are not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion.

What does 'DWR' stand for?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to fabrics to make them shed water and resist water absorption.

Do these shoes contain recycled materials?

Yes, the shoes incorporate 100% recycled materials for the laces, polyester strap, lining, and Strobel construction.

What is the weight of the shoes?

The specified weight for the pair is 660.0 grams.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces are standard and can be replaced if they become worn or damaged. The product also features 100% recycled laces.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If discomfort persists, the size may not be suitable.

Reduced water repellency

The DWR treatment may have worn off. Clean the shoes thoroughly and apply a DWR re-proofing spray according to the product's instructions.

Traction is reduced on slippery surfaces

Ensure the Trail Grip outsole is clean and free from mud or debris that could impede traction. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern, which might indicate it's time for replacement.

Feet feel warm or sweaty

While designed for breathability, very warm conditions or intense activity can still lead to heat. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Allow shoes to air out between uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These hiking shoes require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility:

Designed for men's adult foot sizes. Compatible with most standard hiking socks.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt and mud after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush. Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  • Water Repellency: The DWR treatment on the upper will naturally wear off over time. To restore water repellency, you can use a commercially available DWR spray treatment suitable for footwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing in damp conditions, which can lead to mold or material degradation. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.
  • Laces & Straps: Clean laces and straps with a damp cloth. Ensure they are dry before re-lacing or securing.
