FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

The GORE-TEX provides waterproofing, making them suitable for wet conditions. For extreme cold and snow, consider insulated winter hiking boots.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the UK sizing provided. It is recommended to try them on, ideally in the afternoon when feet tend to be slightly larger, to ensure a comfortable fit.

Can I replace the insole?

Yes, the insole is typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics or different insoles for personalized comfort and support.

How long will the GORE-TEX waterproofing last?

With proper care and maintenance, the GORE-TEX membrane is designed to remain waterproof for the lifespan of the shoe. Periodic cleaning and re-proofing of the outer materials will help maintain performance.

What is the main difference between these and trail running shoes?

While inspired by running shoes for lightness and agility, these hiking shoes feature enhanced ankle support, a more robust sole for grip on varied terrain, and superior waterproofing for multi-day use.

Can these shoes be resoled?

Resoleability depends on the construction. While some high-end hiking boots can be resoled, it is not a standard feature for all models. Contact a specialized shoe repair service for assessment.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX

Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane is intact and not compromised. Check for damage to the shoe's exterior. Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent water ingress from the top.

Discomfort or rubbing during hikes

Break in the shoes gradually on shorter walks. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Adjust lacing for a more personalized fit.

Reduced grip on slippery surfaces

Check the tread on the outsole for wear. Clean the outsole of mud or debris. The advanced CHASSIS™ provides stability, but extreme conditions may require specialized footwear.

  • Excellent waterproofing for all weather conditions.
  • Provides remarkable stability on rough terrain.
  • Surprisingly lightweight for extended wear.
  • Durable materials ensure a long lifespan.
  • Agile design promotes a natural foot movement.

Cons

  • Fit may vary; trying them on is recommended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no specific setup. Ensure they fit comfortably before your first hike.

Compatibility: Designed for women's adult feet, suitable for UK size 6.5.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a brush. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Never dry near direct heat sources. Air dry them at room temperature. This helps preserve the leather and GORE-TEX membrane.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically treat leather with appropriate waterproofing products to maintain its condition and water resistance.
