FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

While the OutDry waterproofing is excellent, these shoes are primarily designed for three-season hiking. For deep snow or extreme cold, consider insulated winter boots.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the UK sizing guide provided. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can be personal. Consider wearing the type of socks you typically hike in when trying them on.

Can these shoes be used for trail running?

While they offer good cushioning and traction, they are designed as hiking shoes and may be heavier and less flexible than dedicated trail running shoes.

What is the main advantage of the NAVIC FIT SYSTEM?

The NAVIC FIT SYSTEM is designed to provide a secure, natural lockdown of the midfoot, preventing internal foot slippage and enhancing stability and control, especially on uneven terrain.

How long does the cushioning typically last?

The Ortholite Eco insole is engineered for long-term cushioning and durability. However, the lifespan of cushioning can vary based on usage intensity and frequency.

Are these shoes true to size?

Sizing can vary between brands and even models. Based on customer feedback and the product's design, it's advisable to consult sizing charts and consider trying them on for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite waterproof claims

Ensure the shoe's tongue is properly positioned to create a seal. Check for any damage to the OutDry membrane or excessive wear. Ensure laces are tied snugly to prevent water ingress.

Discomfort or rubbing during initial wear

This is common during the break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure socks are clean and properly fitted.

Traction feels insufficient on certain surfaces

Clean the outsole lugs to remove any mud or debris that could impede grip. The Adapt Trax outsole performs best on trails; extreme conditions like sheer ice may require specialized footwear.

Shoelaces come undone frequently

Try double-knotting the laces. Consider replacing the laces with a grippier material if the issue persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no specific setup; they are ready for use out of the box. Ensure you select the correct UK size for optimal fit.

Compatibility: Designed for men's hiking and general outdoor use. They are compatible with standard hiking socks.

Care: To maintain performance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Air dry shoes naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Waterproofing: The OutDry membrane is durable, but avoid abrasive materials that could compromise its integrity. Periodic treatment with a fabric-specific water-repellent spray can help maintain water resistance.
