FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running as well as hiking?

While designed primarily for hiking, their stability and grip make them suitable for light trail running. For dedicated trail running, a more specialized shoe might be preferable.

How do I know if the size is correct?

Ensure there is a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and waterproofing membrane.

What is the main benefit of the Gore-Tex material?

Gore-Tex provides reliable waterproofing to keep your feet dry while allowing moisture vapor (sweat) to escape, enhancing breathability and comfort.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers after particularly muddy or wet hikes to maintain their condition and performance. Regular light cleaning is beneficial.

What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

Merino wool or synthetic hiking socks are recommended. They provide cushioning, moisture-wicking properties, and help prevent blisters.

Troubleshooting

Water leakage despite Gore-Tex

Ensure laces are fully tightened and all areas of the upper are clean. If damage is suspected, contact customer support.

Traction feels reduced on slippery surfaces

Clean the rubber sole thoroughly. Debris or mud can affect grip. Check for excessive wear on the sole tread.

Discomfort during long hikes

Ensure the shoes are properly laced for support. Consider using aftermarket insoles if the provided cushioning is insufficient for your needs. Allow for a break-in period.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit correctly before undertaking any strenuous activity. Adjust the lace-up fastening for a secure and comfortable fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult female hikers and trail runners. Designed for use on hiking trails, rugged terrain, and in varied weather conditions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Uppers: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For tougher stains on textile areas, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
  2. Cleaning Lining: The textile lining can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  3. Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape while drying.
  4. Waterproofing Maintenance: While Gore-Tex is highly durable, regular cleaning helps maintain its performance. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
