What is the weight category of this shoe?

Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pressure points during the hike.
Adjust the lace tension across the midfoot; the Terrex Skychaser Ax5 allows for zone-specific tightening.
Inner sole feels damp or retains moisture.
Remove the Ortholite sockliner and allow it to dry separately from the shoe to restore breathability.
Dirt accumulation in the tread.
Use a specialized boot brush or a stiff-bristled brush to clear debris from the outsole lugs to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your adidas Terrex Skychaser Ax5, begin by loosening the laces completely before putting on your hiking socks to ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. For maintenance, remove mud and loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush after every hike; if the shoes become saturated, remove the Ortholite sockliner and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the midsole material. Periodically check the lace eyelets for debris to ensure smooth tensioning. Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mold and material deterioration.
