FAQs
Are the Trabuco 14 shoes waterproof?
The Trabuco 14 is designed for breathability and comfort. While they are durable against splashes, they are not inherently waterproof.
Can I use these for road running?
While wearable on pavement, the outsole and protection plate are optimized for trails and may wear down prematurely on hard, smooth surfaces.
How do I choose the right size?
The Trabuco 14 features a spacious forefoot. It is recommended to select your standard athletic shoe size, ensuring you have roughly a thumb's width of space at the front.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, trail shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of the terrain and your body weight.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The shoe includes reinforced midfoot support that provides a stable base suitable for most neutral foot types.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesives and the integrity of the foam cushioning. Hand wash with mild soap and water instead.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points at the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure while maintaining overall midfoot lockdown.
Outsole losing traction in mud
Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear out debris trapped between the deep lugs of the ASICSGRIP outsole.
Excessive moisture inside the shoe
Ensure you are using synthetic, moisture-wicking socks rather than cotton, and remove the insoles after each hike to allow for better airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, pair the Trabuco 14 with moisture-wicking hiking socks to prevent blisters during long sessions. The shoe features a standard lacing system; ensure the laces are snug through the midfoot to leverage the built-in support structures. After use in wet or muddy conditions, remove the sockliner and air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, which can degrade the midsole foam. Use a soft brush to remove dried mud from the outsole lugs to maintain traction effectiveness for your next hike.
