FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all-weather conditions?

Yes, the GORE-TEX construction makes them suitable for various weather conditions, keeping your feet dry. However, they are not designed for extreme cold weather.

How do I clean my Hedgehog GORE-TEX shoes?

Use a soft brush and lukewarm water to clean the shoes. Avoid harsh chemicals and allow them to air dry naturally.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Choose moisture-wicking hiking socks for optimal comfort and performance. Avoid cotton socks, which retain moisture.

Can I use these shoes for running?

These shoes are designed for hiking and are not ideal for running due to the sole and design. Running shoes offer better support and cushioning.

How long will the GORE-TEX waterproofing last?

The waterproofing can last for a long time with proper care. However, it's recommended to reapply a DWR treatment periodically to maintain water resistance.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

The warranty information can be found on The North Face website.

Are the Hedgehog shoes true to size?

Most customers find these shoes to be true to size, but it is always a good idea to check the size chart or try them on if possible.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. Consider breaking in the shoes with short walks to allow them to conform to your feet.

Water is leaking into the shoes.

Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane. Ensure the shoes are not worn beyond their lifespan. Consider applying a DWR treatment to help with water resistance.

Poor traction on slippery surfaces.

Be cautious on very slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. Consider using alternative footwear for extremely icy or muddy conditions.

Shoes smell after use.

Remove the insoles and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda to absorb odors. Wash the shoes as per the care instructions if necessary.
