FAQs
How do I ensure the best fit for these shoes?
It is often recommended to buy one size bigger than your usual shoe size, as this can provide a more comfortable fit for hiking activities, especially as feet can swell during long walks.
Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?
The RAIN.RDY technology offers a water-repellent finish, making them suitable for wet conditions and light rain. For prolonged submersion or very heavy downpours, additional waterproofing measures or specialized gear might be necessary.
What type of terrain are these shoes best for?
These shoes are ideal for light to moderate hiking trails, walking paths, and general outdoor use. The Traxion outsole provides good grip on various surfaces like dirt, gravel, and rock.
How should I clean the shoes?
Gently brush off loose dirt. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
What does 'Abrasion-resistant mesh upper' mean for durability?
This means the mesh material used in the upper has been treated or constructed to withstand rubbing and friction against rough surfaces like rocks and branches, helping to extend the shoe's lifespan on the trail.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces can be replaced with standard shoelaces. If your original laces become worn, you can purchase replacements of a similar length.
What is the benefit of the gusseted tongue?
A gusseted tongue is attached to the sides of the shoe, creating a barrier that helps prevent water, mud, and small debris from entering the shoe through the lace area.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite RAIN.RDY
Check for potential damage to the shoe's upper or sole. Ensure laces are tied correctly to prevent water ingress at the ankle. The RAIN.RDY technology is water-repellent, not fully waterproof for submersion. Consider reapplication of a water-repellent treatment if wear is evident.
Traction feels inadequate on slippery surfaces
Ensure the Traxion outsole is clean and free from mud or debris that could impair grip. Tread wear can also reduce traction; inspect the outsole for significant wear and consider replacement if necessary.
Discomfort or pressure points during wear
This could be due to incorrect sizing. If you haven't already, try the recommended step of buying one size larger. Ensure laces are adjusted properly, not too tight or too loose. Break the shoes in on shorter walks before embarking on long hikes.
Upper material seems worn or damaged
Minor scuffs can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For more significant damage to the mesh or synthetic overlays, consult the manufacturer's warranty or repair options. Avoid using the shoes in conditions that exceed their intended durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no special setup. Simply ensure you have purchased the correct size (consider buying one size up for a potentially better fit). Lace them up securely for optimal support.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult women engaging in light to moderate hiking, walking, and general outdoor activities. They are designed to be worn with standard hiking socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For dirtier areas, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Water Repellency: While RAIN.RDY is built-in, the effectiveness may decrease over time. Consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for synthetic and mesh materials periodically, following the product's instructions.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
