FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for very cold weather?
While the RAIN.RDY technology provides waterproofing, these shoes are primarily designed for three-season hiking. For extremely cold conditions, consider adding thermal socks or looking for insulated footwear.
How do I know if the RAIN.RDY is still working?
If your feet stay dry during wet conditions, the RAIN.RDY is functioning. If you notice water seeping in, the membrane may be compromised or require re-treatment. Regular cleaning and proper drying help maintain its effectiveness.
Can I machine wash these hiking shoes?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and waterproofing. Hand wash them with mild soap and water as per the care instructions.
What is the difference between the Mid and non-Mid versions?
The 'Mid' designation refers to the cut of the shoe, offering a slightly higher profile around the ankle compared to a low-cut shoe. This can provide a minor increase in support and protection.
What is the midsole drop and why is it important?
The midsole drop is the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot (9 mm in this case). A moderate drop like this can promote a more natural foot motion during walking and hiking.
How much do these shoes weigh?
These shoes weigh approximately 330 grams for a size UK 5.5, making them relatively lightweight for hiking footwear.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet inside the shoes
Ensure the RAIN.RDY membrane is intact. Check that the tongue is properly positioned to prevent water ingress. If the shoes have been submerged or heavily saturated, drying them thoroughly as per care instructions is essential. Reapply waterproofing treatment if necessary.
Traction is reduced on slippery surfaces
Clean the Traxion outsole to remove mud or debris that may be clogging the lugs. Inspect the outsole for excessive wear; if worn down, consider replacement.
Discomfort or rubbing after initial wear
These shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter walks initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure laces are adjusted properly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider wearing thicker hiking socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These hiking shoes require no specific setup; they are ready for use upon purchase. They are compatible with standard hiking socks and general outdoor apparel. To care for your shoes and maintain their performance, especially the RAIN.RDY waterproofing:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and waterproofing.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically, you may need to reapply a waterproofing treatment suitable for synthetic and textile materials to ensure the RAIN.RDY technology remains effective. Follow the product instructions for application.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
