FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for hiking as well as running?

Yes, while designed for trail running, their durable construction, grip, and protective features make them suitable for hiking on varied terrain.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX membrane?

The GORE-TEX membrane is integrated into the shoe. Clean the exterior of the shoe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid aggressive scrubbing on the membrane area.

What is the primary benefit of the GORE-TEX Invisible Fit?

It provides excellent waterproofness and breathability while being integrated seamlessly for a more comfortable, less bulky feel compared to traditional waterproof linings.

How does the ASICSGRIP outsole perform in mud?

The ASICSGRIP outsole is engineered for high traction on various surfaces, including wet and dry trails. Its lug pattern is designed to shed mud effectively, maintaining grip.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired, provided they are of a similar thickness to maintain fit.

Are these shoes good for wide feet?

The Trabuco 14 GTX features a wider forefoot designed for comfort on long runs, which may accommodate wider foot shapes better than narrower models. However, individual fit can vary.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

Please refer to the retailer's or ASICS' official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX

Ensure the GORE-TEX is not compromised by a puncture. Check that laces are not overly tight, which can impede natural foot perspiration. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be damaged.

Traction is poor on certain surfaces

Ensure the ASICSGRIP outsole is clean and free of mud or debris. For extremely slick surfaces like wet polished rock, caution is still advised. The outsole is designed for optimal grip on varied trail conditions, not all surfaces.

Discomfort in the midfoot or forefoot

Allow for a break-in period of several runs. If discomfort persists, consider adjusting lacing techniques or trying a different sock thickness. The supportive fit may require adjustment for your specific foot shape.

Shoes feel stiff

New shoes can feel stiff. Wear them for short walks and gradually increase distance to allow them to break in and conform to your foot's movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection with GORE-TEX.
  • Superior grip on diverse trail surfaces thanks to ASICSGRIP.
  • Responsive and comfortable cushioning for long distances.
  • Secure midfoot fit enhances stability on technical terrain.
  • Protective features like the rock plate safeguard feet.

Cons

  • The new trail fit may require an adjustment period for some users.
  • May offer less flexibility compared to non-waterproof trail shoes.
  • Primarily designed for trail running, may not be ideal for road use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The ASICS Trabuco 14 GTX Hiking Shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct UK size for a comfortable fit. We recommend wearing them for shorter distances initially to allow your feet to adapt to the new fit, particularly the midfoot lockdown and wider forefoot.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult male trail runners. They are compatible with standard running socks. While they are primarily for trail use, they can be worn for walking or hiking on varied terrain.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Remove insoles and laces and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: The GORE-TEX membrane is durable, but avoid puncturing the shoe. Regularly cleaning the shoes will help maintain the performance of the materials.
