Product Information

Full details

The Karrimor Mount Low Walking Shoes are designed for adults seeking comfort, support, and dry feet during light to moderate outdoor activities. Featuring Weathertite waterproof technology and a Dynagrip sole, these shoes offer reliable performance on varied terrain. While excellent for general walking and hiking, their low-cut design means they provide less ankle support than a full boot, making them best suited for less challenging trails.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, with their cushioned insole and FrameFlex Chassis, the Karrimor Mount Low Walking Shoes are designed for extended comfort during walking and light outdoor activities. For optimal comfort, ensure you're wearing appropriate socks.

How do I maintain the waterproof qualities?

Regular cleaning and periodic reapplication of a specialized waterproofing spray for suede and textile materials are crucial. Ensure shoes are clean and dry before applying any treatment, and follow the product instructions carefully.

Can I use these shoes for more strenuous hiking or mountain climbing?

These are low-cut walking shoes designed for light to moderate trails and general outdoor use. For strenuous hiking, technical terrain, or mountain climbing, we recommend a more robust hiking boot with higher ankle support and stiffer construction for added protection and stability.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

We recommend wearing moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool hiking socks. Avoid cotton socks, as they retain moisture, which can lead to discomfort and blisters.

How should I clean the suede leather part of the shoes?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush, or a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find Karrimor Mount Low Walking Shoes to be true to size. However, foot size can vary, so consider trying them on, ideally with the type of socks you plan to wear, to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp or wet inside the shoes.

First, ensure your socks are appropriate (moisture-wicking, not cotton). Check the outer fabric for signs of damage or excessive dirt, which can compromise the DWR treatment. Clean the shoes thoroughly and reapply a waterproof spray specifically designed for suede/textile footwear to revitalize the outer water repellency. Also, confirm the shoes are fully laced, as loose lacing can allow water entry.

Experiencing discomfort or rubbing, especially on longer walks.

Ensure you have the correct size and are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Loosen and re-tie your laces, adjusting the tension carefully to avoid overtightening or leaving areas too loose. Allow for a proper break-in period; if discomfort persists, consider trying different lacing techniques or aftermarket insoles for personalized support.

Sole grip seems to be diminishing.

Inspect the Dynagrip sole for excessive wear or foreign objects lodged in the treads. Clean the sole thoroughly to remove any caked-on mud or debris that might be reducing traction. If the tread pattern is significantly worn down, the sole's performance will naturally decrease over time, indicating it might be time for a replacement pair.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective Waterproofing: Weathertite technology keeps feet dry in damp conditions.
  • Excellent Traction: Dynagrip sole provides reliable grip on various surfaces.
  • Enhanced Comfort and Support: Cushioned insole and FrameFlex Chassis reduce foot fatigue.
  • Durable Construction: Suede leather upper offers good protection and longevity.
  • Versatile Use: Suitable for light hiking, trail walking, and everyday outdoor wear.

Cons

  • Limited Ankle Support: As a low-cut shoe, it offers less ankle stability compared to walking boots.
  • Suede Care: Suede material may require more specific cleaning and maintenance to retain its appearance and waterproofing.
  • Breathability: While breathable, in very hot conditions, the waterproof membrane might still feel warmer than non-waterproof options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Lacing: Before your first walk, ensure the laces are threaded correctly and evenly. When putting the shoes on, loosen the laces completely, slide your foot in, and then tighten from the toe upwards. Secure with a double knot. This ensures a snug, supportive fit without pinching.
  2. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear the shoes for short periods around the house or on light walks before embarking on longer hikes. This allows the shoes to mold to your feet and reduces the risk of blisters.

Compatibility

  • Activities: Ideal for walking, light hiking, trail walking, dog walking, and general outdoor use. Not recommended for aggressive mountaineering or activities requiring significant ankle support.
  • Terrain: Performs well on varied terrain including grass, dirt paths, gravel trails, and light rocky surfaces.
  • Socks: For optimal comfort and moisture management, pair these shoes with moisture-wicking hiking socks, avoiding cotton socks which retain moisture.

Care

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush (a dry toothbrush works well for crevices). For the suede/textile upper, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush, or a damp cloth with mild soap for tougher marks. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do NOT use direct heat sources like radiators, campfires, or tumble dryers, as this can damage the leather, adhesives, and waterproof membrane. Stuffing shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Over time, the outer water-repellent treatment (DWR) may wear off. Reapply a suitable waterproofing spray for suede and textile footwear regularly to maintain water repellency and prolong the life of the Weathertite membrane.
  4. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight when not in use.
