Karrimor Mount Low Walking Shoes - Grey - UK 8

These shoes are designed for general walking, light hiking, and everyday outdoor use. They offer excellent comfort and protection for low to mid-intensity trails. For serious multi-day hikes, technical mountaineering, or carrying heavy loads, a more robust, higher-cut hiking boot with greater ankle support would be recommended.

Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn mud, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash.

Weathertite refers to a specialized membrane or coating that prevents external water from entering the shoe, keeping your feet dry. Simultaneously, it allows internal moisture (perspiration) to escape, ensuring your feet stay comfortable and less sweaty, enhancing overall breathability.

While Karrimor Mount Walking Shoes are comfortable out of the box, it's always a good idea to wear them for shorter periods initially before embarking on long walks. This allows the shoes to mold to your feet and ensures maximum comfort and prevents potential hotspots.

Yes, the cushioned foam insole is typically removable, allowing you to replace it with your preferred custom orthotics or aftermarket insoles for personalized comfort and support. Ensure the new insoles fit properly without crowding the shoe.

Store your Karrimor Mount Walking Shoes in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensure they are clean and completely dry before storing to prevent mildew or material degradation.

First, ensure water isn't entering over the top of the shoe (e.g., from deep puddles or rain running down your legs). Check that you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks, as cotton socks can retain moisture. If the outer material is saturated, consider reapplying a waterproofing treatment to the suede upper.

Walking shoes often require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter periods initially. Ensure you have the correct size and width, and try different types of hiking socks for better cushioning or fit. If discomfort persists, consider if aftermarket insoles could provide better arch support or cushioning for your specific foot shape.

Inspect the outsole for excessive wear; a worn tread will reduce grip. Clean the soles thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be impacting traction. Re-evaluate the terrain; these shoes are designed for light to moderate trails, and extreme mud or polished wet surfaces might exceed their optimal grip.

While the shoes are breathable, ensure you're wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. Avoid thick, non-breathable socks in warmer weather. Allow the shoes to air out completely between uses to ensure the inner lining is dry.
