FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane which provides a waterproof and breathable barrier against external moisture.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The Hurricane 26 GTX has a 6 mm heel-to-toe drop.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are primarily designed for road use; while the GORE-TEX is useful on muddy paths, the outsole is optimized for tarmac.

How should I store them?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the foam and membrane.

Is this a neutral shoe?

No, the Hurricane line is specifically engineered as a stability trainer to assist with pronation control.

How often should I replace them?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 400-500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort after long runs

Ensure you are using the correct arch support or try adjusting the lacing to relieve pressure points.

Moisture buildup inside the shoe

Ensure your socks are moisture-wicking; avoid cotton, which traps perspiration against the skin.

The shoe feels too stiff

New trainers often require a break-in period of 20-30 miles to allow the foam to settle and the upper to conform to your foot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent weather protection with GORE-TEX
  • High level of impact protection from max-cushioning
  • Reliable stability for overpronation support
  • Responsive and smooth heel-to-toe transition
  • Durable build quality for high-mileage training

Cons

  • Increased weight compared to non-GTX models
  • Breathability may be lower in high-temperature conditions
  • Significant stack height may feel bulky for speed sessions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your standard running shoe size, though you may prefer a half-size up if wearing thicker wool socks for winter training. When cleaning, remove loose dirt with a soft brush after your run. If the interior gets wet, remove the insoles and air dry the shoes at room temperature; avoid placing them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and foam structure. Keep the laces properly tensioned to maintain the intended support structure of the upper.
