FAQs

How do I know which size to pick?

Yes, the stock insole can be removed to accommodate custom orthotics or third-party insoles.
Are these shoes heavy?
The Fastpack series is designed to be lightweight despite the added cushioning and protection.
How long does the waterproofing last?
With proper care and cleaning, the waterproof membrane will remain effective for the lifespan of the shoe.
Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, try the shoes on with the specific hiking socks you intend to wear on the trail. If you prefer a looser fit, consider sizing up by a half-size. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and debris. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, to preserve the structural integrity of the cushioning and waterproof materials.
