FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?

The AWE Hiker DWR shoes have a water-repellent DWR-treated upper, which is suitable for dry conditions or light rain. For heavy or prolonged rain, consider footwear with a dedicated waterproof membrane.

How do I maintain the water repellency?

The DWR treatment may diminish with use. You can restore its effectiveness by applying a DWR waterproofing spray suitable for hiking footwear. Always clean the shoes before applying.

What type of terrain are these shoes best for?

These shoes are designed for mixed terrains, including trails, gravel paths, and light forest floors. They offer reliable grip and cushioning for such environments.

What does 'DWR' stand for?

DWR stands for 'Durable Water Repellent'. It's a coating applied to fabrics that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, this model is available in different colors. Please check the product listing for available colorways.

How much do the shoes weigh?

The approximate weight of a pair of these shoes is 660.0 grams.

Can I machine wash these hiking shoes?

It is not recommended to machine wash these hiking shoes. Cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap, followed by air drying, is the preferred method to preserve their materials and performance.

Troubleshooting

Reduced grip over time

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove embedded debris. Consider using a specialized outsole cleaner if needed.

Water seeping through

Check if the DWR treatment has worn off and reapply a DWR spray. Ensure laces are tied snugly to prevent water entering from the top.

Discomfort after prolonged use

Ensure you have the correct size and adequate socks. The HH Flow foam provides cushioning, but very long hikes on extremely hard surfaces may still cause fatigue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides good grip on mixed terrains.
  • Offers water resistance for light rain.
  • Cushioned midsole enhances comfort during hikes.
  • Lightweight design reduces fatigue.
  • Utilizes recycled materials in its construction.

Cons

  • Best suited for light to moderate hiking, not extreme conditions.
  • DWR treatment may require reapplication over time.
  • Limited insulation for cold weather use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no setup out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and comfort.

Compatibility: Designed for men's hiking needs. Compatible with standard hiking socks. Not designed for specialized sports or extreme mountaineering.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Brush off loose dirt after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  2. Water Repellency: The DWR treatment will naturally wear off over time. You can reapply a DWR spray suitable for footwear to maintain water-repellent properties.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
