Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The EXPLOR Trail features a durable ripstop upper designed for protection and breathability, but it is not explicitly marketed as waterproof.
Can I replace the laces?
The quick-toggle system is integrated into the design. It is recommended to contact Under Armour support if the mechanism requires replacement.
Are these suitable for road running?
While they provide great comfort, the deep lug outsole is optimized for trails and may wear down faster on abrasive concrete or asphalt surfaces.
How do I ensure the right fit for my foot?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing. We recommend wearing the socks you typically use for hiking when trying them on to ensure enough room in the toe box.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the molded EVA sockliner is designed to be removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too loose during activity
Ensure the toggle is pushed firmly down against the tongue. If slipping persists, double-check that the cord is not obstructed by debris.
Outsole losing traction
Deep lugs can accumulate impacted mud. Use a stiff-bristle brush to clear the gaps between the lugs to restore full surface contact.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent energy return from HOVR midsole technology
- Highly durable ripstop and rubber construction
- Superior grip across diverse terrains with Exogrip
- Quick-toggle lacing for convenience and secure fit
Cons
- Quick-toggle lacing system is not adjustable in individual eyelets like standard laces
- Specific vibrant orange aesthetic may not suit all personal style preferences
- Designed primarily for trail utility rather than casual urban use
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, pull the quick-toggle lacing until the tension is evenly distributed across the midfoot. Do not over-tighten, as the material is designed to flex naturally with your foot movement.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove excess mud or dirt with a soft brush after each hike to maintain the grip of the Exogrip rubber.
- Drying: Air dry in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight or high-heat sources like radiators, which can warp the TPU and degrade the foam.
- Storage: Keep in a well-ventilated space to prevent moisture build-up inside the sockliner.
