FAQs
Do I really need to buy one size bigger?
The product description recommends buying one size bigger. This is often to accommodate thicker hiking socks or slight foot swelling during long walks. It's advisable to try them on or consider this recommendation carefully based on your intended use.
Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?
The RAIN.RDY technology offers water-repellent protection and is effective against light rain and splashes. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours or complete submersion, additional waterproofing measures like waterproof socks might be beneficial.
What is the primary benefit of the RAIN.RDY technology?
The primary benefit is keeping your feet dry by repelling water from the outside, while still allowing some breathability.
Can I use these for running or trail running?
While they offer good grip, these shoes are primarily designed for hiking. Trail running shoes typically have different features for flexibility and cushioning. These are best suited for walking and hiking activities.
How much recycled content is in the upper?
The upper contains a minimum of 50% recycled content, making them a more sustainable choice.
What type of terrain are the Traxion outsoles best for?
The Traxion outsole is designed to provide maximum grip on a variety of surfaces, including dry, hard ground, as well as rocky and uneven terrain.
How should I clean the shoes if they get muddy?
Use a damp cloth and a mild soap to gently clean the upper. For the outsole, a brush can help remove embedded mud. Always air dry them naturally.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet during a hike.
Ensure the gusseted tongue is properly positioned and laces are tied securely to maximize water resistance. Check if the water ingress is from the top opening rather than the material itself. For prolonged immersion, consider waterproof socks.
Shoes feel too tight.
If you haven't already, try the recommendation to buy one size larger. You can also try loosening the laces to allow for more space, especially after the shoe has been worn for a while and your feet may have expanded slightly.
Traction feels reduced on slippery surfaces.
Clean the Traxion outsole to remove any mud, dirt, or debris that may be impeding grip. Ensure the shoe is the correct size for your foot to allow for proper biomechanics and weight distribution.
Upper material appears worn.
The abrasion-resistant mesh and synthetic overlays are designed for durability. Minor scuffs are normal wear and tear for hiking. For significant damage, consult product warranty information.
