FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
While the Vibram® outsole offers good grip, these trainers are primarily designed for urban exploration and casual wear. For strenuous hiking, dedicated hiking boots are recommended.
How do I adjust the quick-lace system?
Simply pull the toggle to tighten the laces and press the release mechanism on the toggle to loosen them. Adjust until you achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
The shoes offer waterproof protection, but they are not insulated. For very cold conditions, consider wearing warm socks.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics if needed.
What does 'WPA' stand for?
'WPA' in the product name refers to the 'Waterproof Advanced' membrane technology used in the shoe.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping. Trying them on with your typical socks is recommended.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's materials and waterproof membrane. Hand wash or spot clean as per the care instructions.
Troubleshooting
Laces not staying tight
Ensure the toggle is fully engaged and pulled securely. If the toggle appears worn, contact customer support for a replacement part.
Water seeping into the shoe
Check for any damage to the Waterproof Advanced membrane or seams. Ensure laces are fully tightened and the tongue is properly seated. Clean the shoes and allow them to dry completely before assessing the waterproof integrity. Consider applying a waterproofing treatment if the issue persists.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the Vibram® outsole thoroughly to remove any mud, dirt, or debris that may be obstructing the tread pattern. Inspect the outsole for excessive wear; if significantly worn down, replacement may be necessary.
Discomfort during wear
Adjust the quick-lace system for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider the shoe's low-cut design and whether it suits your activity needs. Trying different insoles might also help.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for urban use and casual wear. They are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing. For optimal performance, ensure the size is correct before wearing them for extended periods.
Care: To maintain the waterproof properties and appearance:
