FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for technical hiking trails?

The Transport 2 is best suited for light hiking, walking, and city use. For technical or very rugged trails requiring significant ankle support, a more specialized hiking boot would be recommended.

How do I clean the shoes?

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.

What is the benefit of the 360-degree reflectivity?

The reflective elements enhance your visibility to others in low-light conditions, such as dawn, dusk, or at night, improving safety during outdoor activities.

Can I replace the quick-toggle laces with standard ones?

Yes, traditional laces are included with the shoes, allowing you to choose between the quick-toggle system or a standard tie-up lacing method.

How sustainable are these shoes?

The Transport 2 incorporates sustainable materials, including a midsole made with 30% sugarcane EVA and an outsole made with 30% recycled materials. Several components also use 100% recycled polyester.

What does the 'PFC-free/PFAS-Free' water repellency treatment mean?

This means the water-repellent treatment applied to the shoes does not contain perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which are considered more environmentally friendly alternatives.

What is the primary advantage of the higher stack height?

The higher stack height contributes to a softer step-in feel and increased cushioning, providing greater comfort during prolonged wear.

Troubleshooting

Quick-toggle lace not holding tension

Ensure the toggle is fully engaged. If the lace is worn, consider replacing the quick-toggle system or using the included traditional laces.

Slight water ingress during heavy rain

The water repellency is topical and best for light moisture. For heavy rain, consider using a dedicated waterproofing spray or wearing waterproof covers.

Reduced grip on very slippery surfaces

While Vibram® outsoles offer good traction, extremely slick surfaces like wet ice may reduce grip. Use caution in such conditions.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes due to the materials interacting. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the insoles are properly seated. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Features sustainable materials, appealing to eco-conscious consumers.
  • Quick-toggle laces provide convenience for easy on/off.
  • Good visibility in low light due to 360-degree reflectivity.
  • Durable construction suitable for varied environments.

Cons

  • The quick-toggle lace system might not offer a perfectly secure fit for intense hiking.
  • May not provide the robust ankle support needed for challenging, technical trails.
  • Water repellency is topical and may diminish over time with heavy use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Transport 2 comes with a quick-toggle stretch lace system. To use, simply slide your foot in and pull the toggle to tighten. For a more customized fit, you can swap these for the included traditional laces and tie them as you normally would.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult use and are suitable for walking, hiking, and general lifestyle wear. They are compatible with most standard sock types.

Care: To maintain the shoes, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, which can damage the materials and cushioning. Allow shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. The water-repellent treatment can be renewed periodically with appropriate fabric care products.
