FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the Gore-Tex membrane. Please clean them by hand using a damp cloth.
How do I maintain the waterproof performance?
Regularly clean the exterior and apply a water-repellent spray specifically approved for leather and Gore-Tex products.
Can I use these for heavy hiking?
While they feature a high-performance Vibram sole, they are low-cut trainers. They are ideal for light trails, but may lack the ankle support required for technical mountaineering.
What does the honeycomb reflective print do?
The reflective print improves your visibility to others in low-light conditions when light hits the heel area.
Are these true to size?
They generally fit consistent with standard sizing. If you plan to wear thick wool socks for winter, some users prefer to size up by a half size.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks, as Gore-Tex allows vapor to escape but cannot overcome excessive internal sweat.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the Vibram outsole with a stiff brush to remove compacted mud or debris stuck in the tread pattern.
Leather becoming stiff
Apply a specialized leather conditioner designed for waterproof treated footwear to restore suppleness.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best performance, ensure the laces are tightened appropriately to secure the foot, preventing internal sliding on uneven terrain. As these are crafted from leather, avoid submerging them in deep water for extended periods despite the waterproof membrane. To clean, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and wipe the leather with a damp cloth; avoid harsh soaps or machine washing, as these can degrade the leather and the Gore-Tex membrane. If the shoes become soaked, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
