FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

Yes, they feature an integrated GORE-TEX membrane that provides high-level waterproof protection while allowing the shoe to breathe.

Can I use these for trail running?

While designed primarily for technical hiking, their lightweight construction and responsive cushioning make them suitable for fast-hiking and some trail running applications.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

The shoes should feel snug around the midfoot with enough room in the toe box to wiggle your toes comfortably. Check that your heel does not slip when walking.

Are the insoles replaceable?

Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required.

How often should I clean the outsole?

It is best practice to clean the outsole after every hike to maintain the integrity of the Continental rubber grip and prevent tracking dirt into indoor spaces.

Troubleshooting

Water penetrating the shoe

Check the upper for visible tears or buildup of mud that might be clogging the membrane's breathability pores. Ensure the laces are tied securely to seal the tongue area.

Decreased traction

Thoroughly clean the Continental rubber outsole with a stiff brush to remove compacted dirt and debris that can accumulate in the tread patterns.

Interior discomfort or hotspots

Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking hiking socks. Adjust lacing tension to reduce friction in specific areas of the midfoot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on wet and dry technical terrain
  • Lightweight design prevents fatigue on long hikes
  • Fully waterproof yet breathable membrane
  • Responsive cushioning for quick movement

Cons

  • Regular fit may not suit every foot shape perfectly
  • Lace-up closure requires manual adjustment compared to quick-lace systems
  • Limited to adult male sizing specifications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Terrex Skychaser shoes, follow these maintenance steps:

  1. Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks before tackling long, multi-day treks to ensure the regular fit conforms to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: After hikes, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use lukewarm water and a mild soap for deep cleaning. Avoid machine washing.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the adhesive and GORE-TEX membrane.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material hardening.
  5. Insole Replacement: The OrthoLite insole is removable. If you use orthotics, ensure they fit the shoe profile for optimal support.
