FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes feature a durable ripstop upper, but they are not explicitly marketed as waterproof. They are designed to be breathable and quick-drying.

How should I clean the mud off the Exogrip outsole?

Use a nylon bristle brush and warm water to scrub the lugs clean. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the molded EVA sockliner is removable if you need to accommodate custom orthotics.

Are these suitable for road running?

While the HOVR cushioning is comfortable, the aggressive lug pattern is specifically engineered for trails and may wear down prematurely on abrasive concrete or asphalt.

What is the best way to adjust the lacing?

Slide the toggle to loosen for entry, then pull the toggle toward the tongue to tighten, ensuring even tension across the instep.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel loose during long hikes

Ensure the quick-toggle is fully clicked into the locked position and that the lace ends are tucked away so they do not snag on trail debris.

Outsole losing traction

Check the lug patterns for lodged rocks, mud, or debris. Use a stiff brush to clear out the channels to restore the full grip capability of the Exogrip rubber.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return with UA HOVR cushioning
  • High-grip Exogrip outsole for diverse terrain
  • Lightweight ripstop construction reduces fatigue
  • Secure quick-toggle lacing saves time
  • Enhanced durability with TPU heel stabilizer and toe cap

Cons

  • Limited to trail hiking performance
  • Not intended for technical rock climbing
  • Bright orange colorway may show dirt more readily

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, utilize the quick-toggle lacing system by pulling the toggle firmly until the shoe feels secure against the midfoot, then verify there is no heel slippage. The shoes are compatible with standard hiking socks; moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool blends are recommended to enhance the comfort of the EVA sockliner. To clean your shoes, remove surface dirt with a soft brush after each use. If they become heavily soiled, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in a washing machine or using high-heat dryers, as this can degrade the specialized materials and adhesives.
