FAQs
Are these shoes completely waterproof?
The RAIN.RDY technology provides a waterproof upper, protecting against rain, puddles, and splashes. However, they are not designed for full submersion in water, which could allow water to enter over the top of the shoe.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
These shoes feature an Adifit length-measuring insole. Remove the insole and place your child's foot on it. There should be a small gap (about a thumb's width) between their longest toe and the end of the insole to ensure proper fit and room for growth.
What is the best way to clean these hiking shoes?
Brush off any loose dirt or mud. Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently wipe down the surface. Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Are these shoes suitable for cold weather or snow?
While the RAIN.RDY upper offers protection from wet conditions, these shoes are not insulated for extreme cold or deep snow. For winter conditions, dedicated insulated footwear would be more appropriate.
What does 'contains a minimum of 20% recycled and renewable content' mean?
This means that at least 20% of the materials used in the shoe's construction are either recycled (like plastics repurposed) or renewable resources. This initiative helps reduce waste and reliance on virgin materials.
Can these shoes be used for everyday wear, not just hiking?
Yes, while designed for hiking, their durable construction, comfort, and waterproof features make them suitable for everyday outdoor play, school, and general active use in various weather conditions.
Troubleshooting
Child's feet feel damp or wet inside the shoes
While the RAIN.RDY upper is waterproof, it protects against rain and splashes, not full submersion. Check if water is entering from the top (e.g., deep puddles, snow over the ankle), or if sweat build-up is causing dampness. Ensure appropriate moisture-wicking socks are worn.
Child complains of discomfort or rubbing
Re-check the sizing using the Adifit insole to ensure there's enough room for growth. Also, ensure the child is wearing appropriate hiking socks, which provide cushioning and prevent blisters. A short break-in period may be needed for new shoes.
Shoe laces frequently come undone during activity
Ensure laces are tied securely, possibly using a double knot. You might also consider replacing original laces with slightly longer or textured ones that hold knots better if the problem persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Sizing Check: Before first use, remove the Adifit length-measuring insole and place your child's foot on it. Ensure there is a small gap (approx. a thumb's width) between the longest toe and the end of the insole for optimal fit and growth.
- Lace Securely: Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to provide a snug fit that supports the ankle without restricting circulation. Double-knotting can help prevent laces from coming undone during activity.
Compatibility
- Age Group: Designed specifically for kids (Unisex).
- Activities: Ideal for hiking, trail walking, general outdoor play, and adventures in varied conditions.
- Terrain: Suitable for light to moderate trails, dirt paths, grass, and uneven surfaces.
Care
- Cleaning: After use, brush off any loose dirt or mud. For tougher grime, wipe the shoes down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials and the waterproof membrane.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Maintenance: Regularly check laces for wear and replace if necessary. Inspect the outsole for embedded debris that could affect traction. Do not machine wash the shoes.
