FAQs
How do I use the adiFIT measuring tool?
Have the child stand on the shoe with their heel against the back. The printed line on the insole should align with the tip of their longest toe. If it extends past, the shoe may be too large. If there's significant space before the toe, it might be too small.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are designed for hiking and offer some water resistance due to their materials, but they are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain and damp conditions but not for submersion.
What type of activities are these best suited for?
They are ideal for hiking, trail walking, and general outdoor play where good traction and support are needed.
Can these shoes be worn in hot weather?
The textile upper provides some breathability, making them suitable for warm weather, though prolonged strenuous activity in extreme heat may still lead to warm feet.
What is the midsole drop?
The midsole drop is 8 mm, with a stack height of 20 mm at the heel and 12 mm at the forefoot. This is a moderate drop suitable for many activities.
Do these shoes contain recycled materials?
Yes, the shoes contain at least 20% recycled content in their construction.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the right fit
Utilize the adiFIT(R) measuring tool printed on the sockliner. Ensure the heel is back and the longest toe aligns with or just before the indicated mark. Adjust laces for a secure but not constricting fit.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the Traxion outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For very slippery conditions, exercise caution as no footwear guarantees absolute slip-proof performance.
Shoes feel stiff initially
New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short walks around the house to allow them to conform to the foot's shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These hiking shoes require no specific setup beyond ensuring the correct fit. The primary tool for ensuring optimal fit is the adiFIT(R) measuring tool printed on the sockliner; ensure the child's foot length aligns with the measurement markings. The shoes are designed for unisex use and are compatible with standard children's sock sizes.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and mud.
- Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
