FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use a damp cloth and mild soap for cleaning.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the EVA foam footbed is removable, allowing you to clean it or replace it with a custom orthopedic insert if needed.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from durable nylon with a water-resistant soft shell finish.
Is the gusseted tongue effective against sand?
Yes, the gusseted tongue is specifically designed to bridge the gap between the tongue and the shoe upper to prevent debris like sand, dirt, and pebbles from entering.
How should I dry the shoes if they get soaked?
Always air dry them at room temperature. Remove the insoles to speed up the process, and avoid placing them on heaters or near open fires.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel damp inside after heavy rain
Check that the gusseted tongue was properly positioned when putting the shoes on; if moisture entered from the top, remove the insole and air dry thoroughly.
Difficulty putting the shoes on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened and the gusseted tongue is pulled forward before sliding the foot in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure socks are appropriate for hiking to prevent friction and provide additional moisture management. To care for your Cotswold shoes, remove excess mud after every use using a soft brush. If the interior becomes damp, remove the EVA footbed and allow both the shoe and insole to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the waterproof membrane. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these methods may compromise the integrity of the water-resistant materials.
