FAQs

Are these shoes fully waterproof?

No, they feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment designed for light rain and moisture, not for full submersion.

Can I wear these for winter hiking?

They are designed for three-season use and do not offer significant thermal insulation for extreme cold or deep snow.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles can be removed for cleaning or to accommodate custom orthotics.

Do these shoes need a break-in period?

Thanks to the flexible polyester construction, they require minimal break-in time compared to traditional leather boots.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes follow standard UK sizing; it is recommended to wear the type of hiking socks you intend to use when trying them on for size.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the upper material

The DWR treatment may have worn off; clean the shoes and re-apply a compatible DWR spray to restore performance.

Outsole losing traction

Check the tread for embedded rocks or mud buildup and clean with a stiff brush to restore grip.

Persistent odors

Remove the insoles to air out, and use a sneaker deodorizing powder; avoid soaking the entire shoe in water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Helly Hansen Awe Hiker DWR shoes, proper maintenance is essential.

  1. Initial Fit: Ensure the padded collar sits snugly around your ankle without restriction; if the shoe feels tight, ensure your socks are not too thick.
  2. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after every hike. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid machine washing or drying.
  3. DWR Maintenance: Over time, the water-repellent coating may wear off. Re-apply a spray-on DWR treatment periodically to maintain the shoe's weather resistance.
  4. Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent material degradation.
