FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Keen Jasper Hiking Shoes are not fully waterproof. While the suede and mesh construction offers some resistance, they are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions. They are not designed for heavy rain or submersion in water.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or preferred insoles for additional support or comfort.
How do I best care for the suede material?
Regular brushing with a suede brush is recommended. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and protect the material with a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray. Avoid saturating the suede with water.
What type of terrain are these shoes best for?
These shoes are ideal for light hiking trails, city walking, travel, and everyday casual wear. Their low-profile outsole offers good grip on varied surfaces like pavement, gravel, and dry dirt paths.
Do these shoes offer good ankle support?
The Keen Jasper Hiking Shoes are low-top shoes and offer moderate ankle support. They are suitable for activities where ankle stability is not a primary concern, but may not be ideal for very rugged or uneven terrain requiring significant ankle bracing.
What does 'Eco Anti-Odor Control' mean?
This feature refers to a natural, probiotic-based technology infused into the footbed that helps to break down odor-causing bacteria, keeping the shoes fresher for longer without the use of harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the tongue-to-toe lacing system. Tighten or loosen the laces to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the laces are threaded evenly through all eyelets.
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Feet feel damp or overheated.
Ensure the breathable mesh lining is clear of debris. Allow shoes to air dry completely between wears. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.
Reduced grip on surfaces.
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt and debris that might be hindering traction.
