FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

While comfortable, their design is optimized for outdoor performance. For everyday casual wear, you might find other shoes more suitable, but they can be worn casually if preferred.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX upper?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the main advantage of the React foam midsole?

The React foam provides responsive cushioning, helping to absorb shock and return energy, which enhances comfort during long periods of activity.

Can I replace the laces if they get damaged?

Yes, the laces can be replaced. Look for thin, round, durable laces, preferably with a quick-lace system compatibility, to maintain the shoe's functionality.

What makes the rubber outsole 'sticky'?

The 'sticky' rubber compound is specifically formulated to offer enhanced grip and adhesion on various surfaces, particularly wet or uneven terrain.

How does the lacing system work?

It's an easy-cinch system where you pull a toggle to tighten the laces and a small release to loosen them, allowing for quick adjustments without traditional knot-tying.

What does 'ACG' stand for?

ACG stands for All Conditions Gear, indicating that the product is designed for versatility and performance across a wide range of environmental conditions.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel difficult to adjust

Ensure the lacing cord is clean and free of debris. Try gently pulling the toggle outwards while tightening to create more slack. If the cord is worn, consider replacing it with a similar type.

Feet feel damp despite GORE-TEX

Check for any tears or damage to the GORE-TEX material. Ensure the tongue and ankle collar are properly sealed. Extreme conditions or prolonged submersion might exceed normal expectations; allow time for drying. Consider if sweat buildup is a factor.

Traction is reduced on certain surfaces

The sticky rubber outsole performs best when clean. Remove mud, oil, or other residues with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure the tread isn't excessively worn down.

Shoes feel stiff initially

New shoes, especially those with waterproof membranes, often require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter walks initially to allow them to conform to your feet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing thanks to GORE-TEX material.
  • Superior grip and stability on rough terrain.
  • Comfortable cushioning for long hikes.
  • Quick and adjustable lacing system.
  • Lightweight yet durable construction.

Cons

  • The unique lacing system might take some getting used to.
  • May be less breathable than non-waterproof alternatives in very hot conditions.
  • Primarily designed for outdoor use, potentially less suited for casual indoor wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. The primary setup involves adjusting the unique lacing system to your preferred tightness. Once set, the toggle allows for quick on-and-off. The shoes are designed for direct use without any additional accessories.

Compatibility: These shoes are ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities including hiking, trail running, and general outdoor exploration. They are compatible with standard hiking socks. They are designed for male adults. The UK size 14 (EU 49.5) offers a specific fit.

Care: To maintain the GORE-TEX membrane and overall condition:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials and GORE-TEX membrane.
  3. Waterproofing: Periodically, you may wish to reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish suitable for performance footwear to maintain the water-repellent properties of the upper. Follow the product instructions for the DWR treatment.
