FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are constructed with durable leather and mesh, but they are not marketed as fully waterproof. Avoid submerging them in water.

Can I use these for long-distance running?

These are designed primarily for hiking and walking. While cushioned, they lack the specific motion-control features found in dedicated running shoes.

How should I clean the mesh underlays?

Use a soft-bristled brush and a mixture of water and mild soap. Gently dab the area and let it air dry.

Do they run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing conventions. Ensure you account for the thickness of hiking socks when choosing your size.

Is the leather genuine?

Yes, these shoes feature high-quality leather uppers intended for both durability and style.

Can I replace the insoles?

The interior is designed to be comfortable as is, but the insoles are generally removable if you require custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Outer sole losing traction

Check for debris wedged in the multidirectional lugs and clear them using a stiff brush.

Leather looks dull or dry

Clean the surface thoroughly and apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner.

Discomfort or hotspots during hikes

Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking synthetic or wool hiking socks to reduce friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip on varied surfaces due to the GEL-FujiTrabuco 7 outsole
  • Lightweight feel despite the robust leather construction
  • Sophisticated design that works well for casual wear
  • Responsive cushioning reduces impact during downhill trekking

Cons

  • Leather requires specific cleaning products to avoid damage
  • May feel warm in high-temperature conditions due to leather panels
  • Requires a brief break-in period for the leather to soften

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before your first trek, ensure the fit is snug but allows for natural foot expansion; the leather may feel stiff initially but will contour to your foot shape over time. To maintain the appearance and functionality of the leather: 1. Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after each outing. 2. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. 3. Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple. Avoid machine washing, as the agitation can compromise the integrity of the adhesive and the leather structure.
