FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear or just hiking?
These shoes are designed for hiking and outdoor adventures, offering specialized grip and waterproofing. However, their comfortable cushioning and lightweight design also make them suitable for general everyday wear, especially for active children.
How do I know if the size is correct for my child?
The shoes feature an Adifit length-measuring insole. You can trace your child's foot on paper, measure its length, and compare it to the insole markings. Ensure there is a small amount of growing room at the toe.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these hiking shoes. Hand washing with mild soap and water, followed by air drying, is the best method to maintain the integrity of the materials and waterproofing.
What is RAIN.RDY technology?
RAIN.RDY is adidas's technology designed to keep you dry. It provides waterproof protection and breathability, ensuring that external moisture is kept out while allowing some internal moisture vapor to escape.
How do I clean the waterproof exterior?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure to rinse off any soap residue and allow the shoes to air dry completely.
What is the main difference between these and regular running shoes?
While they share lightweight cushioning with running shoes, the Terrex Trailmaker 2 features a more robust outsole for better grip on varied terrain, abrasion-resistant overlays for durability, and RAIN.RDY technology for waterproofing, making them specifically suited for outdoor and trail use.
What is the midsole drop?
The midsole drop is 8.5 mm, with a heel thickness of 20.5 mm and a forefoot thickness of 12 mm. This design supports a natural foot motion while providing cushioning.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite the RAIN.RDY technology.
Ensure the shoe's tongue is correctly positioned and not creating a gap. Check for any physical damage to the upper. The waterproofing is effective against external moisture; submersion in deep water for extended periods may still allow some moisture ingress.
Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Clean the outsole to remove any mud or debris that may be hindering grip. For extremely slick surfaces like polished wet rock, caution is still advised, as no footwear offers absolute slip-proof performance.
Difficulty getting the right fit.
Use the Adifit length-measuring insole to determine the correct size. Measure your child's foot and compare it to the insole's markings. Ensure the heel is snug and there is adequate room in the toe box.
Discomfort or rubbing.
Ensure the laces are tied correctly, providing a secure but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes with short periods of wear before undertaking long hikes. Check the Adifit insole to confirm the size is correct for your child's foot length.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. For interior cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: The RAIN.RDY technology is built into the shoe's construction. Regular cleaning will help maintain its effectiveness. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could compromise the waterproof membrane.
