FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

They are suitable for moderate conditions, but they are not insulated, so you may need thicker wool socks for very cold temperatures.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and the structural integrity of the suede; please clean by hand.

How do I maintain the suede finish?

Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt and a suede eraser for surface stains, followed by a suede-specific protectant spray.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The Karrimor Isla generally follows standard UK sizing; however, it is advised to allow room for hiking socks.

Is the sole stiff enough for rocky terrain?

The Phylon midsole provides a balance of comfort and protection suitable for light to moderate rocky trails, though it is not a rigid mountaineering boot.

Troubleshooting

Water entering the shoe during heavy rain

Ensure the shoe is fully laced and that the tongue is centered; if the waterproof coating has worn off, re-apply a DWR (durable water repellent) spray.

Outsole losing traction

Clean the tread patterns with a stiff brush to remove compacted mud or debris that may be obstructing the grip.

Discomfort around the heel

Check your sock thickness and ensure the laces are tightened adequately at the ankle eyelets to prevent foot slippage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on slippery or muddy terrain
  • Lightweight build prevents leg fatigue
  • Effective waterproof protection
  • Comfortable cushioning for long-distance wear
  • Secure and customizable fit

Cons

  • Suede material requires specific cleaning methods
  • Less breathable than pure mesh trainers
  • Not intended for extreme high-altitude mountaineering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you wear the type of socks you intend to use for hiking when trying on the shoes to account for volume. Since these shoes feature suede components, it is recommended to treat them with a suede-specific water repellent spray before first use. To clean, wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth for deeper stains; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can degrade the waterproof membrane and damage the adhesive bonds of the outsole. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
