Product Information

Full details

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

While designed for outdoor performance, their comfort and protection features also make them suitable for casual everyday wear, especially in unpredictable weather.

What is the main advantage of the GORE-TEX material?

The GORE-TEX material provides reliable waterproofing, keeping your feet dry from external moisture while allowing perspiration vapor to escape, thus enhancing comfort.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided and consider your usual UK or EU shoe size. If possible, try them on in person, as fit can vary.

Can these shoes be worn in cold weather?

They offer good protection against elements, but their primary design is for moderate conditions. For extreme cold, consider adding thermal socks or a more insulated footwear option.

What is the purpose of the React foam midsole?

The React foam midsole is designed to provide lightweight, responsive cushioning that helps absorb impact and enhances comfort during prolonged activity.

How often should I clean the shoes?

Clean the shoes as needed, especially after exposure to mud or significant dirt. Regular cleaning helps maintain their performance and longevity.

What is the 'SE' in the product name?

The 'SE' typically denotes a Special Edition, often indicating specific material combinations, colorways, or enhanced features compared to the standard model.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp despite GORE-TEX material

Ensure laces are tied snugly to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any visible damage to the GORE-TEX membrane. Clean the shoes as per care instructions, as accumulated dirt can affect breathability.

Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces

Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly to remove mud, dirt, or debris that may be hindering grip. Ensure the outsole is completely dry before use on slick surfaces.

Lacing system feels loose or difficult to adjust

Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets. Check for any fraying or damage to the laces themselves. Practice adjusting the tension for a secure fit.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent waterproofing with GORE-TEX technology.
  • Superior traction on diverse terrains.
  • Comfortable cushioning for extended wear.
  • Adjustable lacing system for a secure fit.
  • Durable and ready for outdoor adventures.

Cons

  • May not offer sufficient insulation for extreme cold.
  • The minimalist design might not appeal to everyone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the lacing system is adjusted for a comfortable and secure fit before your first use.

Compatibility: Designed for male adults, compatible with standard athletic sock wear. Specific sizing is available in UK and EU measurements.

Care: To maintain the performance of the GORE-TEX material and the overall shoe:

  1. Brush off loose dirt and debris with a soft brush.
  2. If necessary, use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior.
  3. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
  4. Allow shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  5. Do not tumble dry.
