FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are designed for trail use and may offer some water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or stream crossings, consider waterproof trail running shoes or gaiters.
What type of terrain are these best for?
They are best suited for moderate trails, including dirt paths, gravel, and light rocky terrain. They offer good grip and stability for day hikes.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size guide and measure your foot. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box for comfort during hikes, especially as feet can swell.
Can I wear these for running?
While they offer good traction, they are primarily designed as hiking shoes. For dedicated trail running, specialized trail running shoes might offer better flexibility and lighter weight.
How often should I clean my hiking shoes?
Clean them after each significant hike to remove dirt and debris, which helps maintain the materials and performance. Regular light cleaning is recommended.
What is the heel-to-forefoot drop?
The heel has a height of 29mm and the forefoot is 19mm, resulting in a 10mm drop.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not overly restrictive fit. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the socks being worn are too thick.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While designed for traction, extreme wet surfaces can challenge any shoe. Exercise caution and ensure your stride is adjusted appropriately. Clean the outsole to remove any debris that might hinder grip.
Discomfort after a hike
Ensure the lacing provides adequate support without pressure points. Consider wearing different hiking socks or check if the shoe size is correct for your foot length and width.
