FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Glenclyffe trainers are designed for protection and durability in urban environments but are not explicitly labeled as waterproof.
Can I use these for hiking?
While they are inspired by the Summit Series, they are best suited for urban settings, city streets, and light gravel paths rather than technical mountain trails.
Are they unisex in fit?
Yes, they are designed as a unisex model, meaning the sizing accommodates a variety of foot widths and shapes effectively.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
We recommend following standard UK sizing for The North Face footwear; if you are between sizes, we suggest sizing up for a more comfortable fit.
What is the primary benefit of the Vibram sole?
The Vibram XS Trek outsole provides superior durability and traction on various surfaces, particularly hard urban pavements.
Troubleshooting
Outer material looks dusty or dirty
Use a soft brush to gently remove surface debris, followed by a damp cloth wipe-down.
Outsole loses grip
Check the tread for embedded rocks or mud, rinse with water, and let dry thoroughly to restore the Vibram rubber surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Glenclyffe trainers maintain their performance, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Wipe down the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing them to prevent odor buildup.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. If you plan to wear thick wool socks for winter commuting, you may consider a half-size larger than your standard casual shoe.
