FAQs

Are Karrimor Skiddaw Walking Boots truly waterproof?

Yes, these boots feature a Weathertite upper which is designed to be both waterproof and breathable, keeping your feet dry in wet conditions.

How should I clean my Skiddaw walking boots?

You should wipe them clean with a damp cloth and then air dry them naturally in a well-ventilated area. Avoid using direct heat sources and never machine wash them.

What is the benefit of the Ortholite insole?

The Ortholite insole provides extra cushioning and support, which enhances comfort during long periods of walking and hiking, reducing foot fatigue.

Are these boots heavy?

No, the Karrimor Skiddaw Walking Boots are designed with a lightweight Phylon midsole to reduce overall weight and minimize fatigue during extended use.

What kind of terrain are these boots suitable for?

Thanks to the DynaGrip outsole, these boots offer superior traction and are suitable for a variety of terrains, including trails, muddy paths, and uneven surfaces.

Can I machine wash these boots?

No, it is strongly advised to avoid machine washing these boots as it can damage the waterproof membrane and other materials.

Are these boots available in other sizes or colors?

Yes, the Karrimor Skiddaw Walking Boots are available in various UK adult sizes and other colors like Black. Please check the product listings for current availability.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp or wet inside the boots.

First, check if water entered from the top (e.g., over the collar) or if your socks are not moisture-wicking. Ensure laces are snug to prevent water ingress. If the boots are older, consider applying an appropriate re-waterproofing treatment for footwear to the outer material, as the DWR coating may have worn off.

Boots feel uncomfortable or cause rubbing/blisters.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Verify the boots are laced correctly for a secure, non-slip fit. Allow for a break-in period if they are new. If discomfort persists, check if the size is correct for your feet, as fit is crucial for hiking boots.

Traction seems poor on certain surfaces.

Regularly clean the DynaGrip outsole to remove embedded mud, small stones, or debris, which can reduce grip. Ensure the tread pattern is not excessively worn. For extremely icy or slick conditions, consider additional traction aids.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance protects feet in all weather.
  • Superior traction from DynaGrip outsole enhances stability on varied terrain.
  • Ortholite insole provides significant cushioning and support for comfort.
  • Lightweight Phylon midsole reduces fatigue on long walks.
  • Secure lacing system with hook eyelets ensures a snug fit.

  • Classic design may not appeal to those preferring modern aesthetics.
  • Requires specific cleaning instructions; not suitable for machine washing.
  • Limited color options (primarily brown and black mentioned in variants).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure boots are laced firmly but not overly tight. Use the hook eyelets to create a secure, custom fit that supports your ankle without restricting circulation. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find what's most comfortable for your foot shape.
  2. Socks: Wear appropriate hiking socks. Moisture-wicking materials are recommended to enhance the breathable qualities of the Weathertite upper and prevent blisters.
  3. Break-in Period: Like most walking boots, the Skiddaw boots may benefit from a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter walks initially to allow the materials to conform to your feet before tackling longer treks.

Compatibility

These boots are compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities, including day hikes, multi-day treks, leisurely walks on varied terrain, and general outdoor use. They are suitable for adult male users and perform well in diverse weather conditions due to their waterproof and breathable design.

Care Instructions

To maintain the performance and longevity of your Karrimor Skiddaw Walking Boots:

  • Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and mud. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush.
  • Drying: Always air dry your boots naturally. Ensure they are placed in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources (like radiators or open fires) as excessive heat can damage the materials and waterproof membrane. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb internal moisture and help them retain their shape.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash your boots, as this can severely damage the Weathertite membrane, midsole, and overall structure.
  • Waterproofing Maintenance: Over time, the outer durable water repellent (DWR) coating may wear off. Consider applying a suitable waterproofing treatment periodically to maintain the water-repellent properties of the outer material, always following the product manufacturer's instructions.
