FAQs
Should I buy my regular size?
No, it is highly recommended to buy one size larger than your standard shoe size.
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the synthetic materials and the GORE-TEX liner.
Are these suitable for cold weather?
While they are not insulated for sub-zero temperatures, the GORE-TEX liner provides a good wind-resistant barrier for cool-weather hiking.
What is the purpose of the gusseted tongue?
The gusseted tongue is attached to the sides of the shoe to prevent dirt, rocks, and mud from entering the interior while you walk.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels cramped or tight
The Terrex AX4 is known to run small; ensure you have sized up by one full size for proper toe clearance.
Moisture inside the shoe during dry conditions
Ensure the laces are properly tightened to prevent gaps at the tongue; if sweat is the cause, consider using moisture-wicking synthetic hiking socks.
Loss of traction on wet rock
Check the outsole treads for embedded mud or debris; clean with a stiff brush to restore the grip pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, always wear the socks you intend to use for hiking when first trying on the shoes, keeping in mind they fit best when you size up. To maintain the integrity of the GORE-TEX membrane, avoid machine washing these shoes. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft brush and lukewarm water after each hike. If the interior gets wet, remove the insoles and air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the technical materials.
