FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?

Yes, the Gelert Horizon shoes feature a waterproof membrane upper specifically designed to keep your feet dry in damp conditions, including light to moderate rain and wet ground.

How should I clean my Gelert Horizon walking shoes?

The synthetic upper should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. Gently wipe away dirt and allow them to air dry naturally.

Can I use these shoes for more strenuous activities like mountain climbing?

These shoes are designed for trail walks, outdoor errands, and general wet weather use. While durable, they are not intended for extreme mountaineering or heavy-duty technical climbing.

What kind of traction do these shoes offer?

They feature a rugged moulded outsole which provides excellent traction and grip on varied surfaces, including trails, gravel, and wet paths.

Do these shoes come in other sizes or colors?

Yes, the Gelert Horizon series is available in various sizes and color options. Please check the product listings for all available variants.

How do I achieve the best fit with the lacing system?

Utilize the classic lacing system to adjust the tension evenly across your foot. Experiment with different lacing patterns if needed to find the most secure and comfortable fit for your foot shape.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp or wet inside the shoe.

Ensure the laces are tied snugly to prevent water ingress from the top. Inspect the waterproof membrane for any visible damage or punctures. If regularly exposed to deep puddles or prolonged heavy rain, water can sometimes enter over the top of the shoe.

Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Check the rugged moulded outsole for excessive mud or debris, which can reduce traction. Clean the outsole thoroughly. Also, inspect the tread for signs of significant wear, which might indicate reduced grip effectiveness over time.

Shoes are uncomfortable or cause rubbing.

Re-adjust the classic lacing system to ensure a balanced and customized fit, avoiding overly tight or loose sections. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for walking, as thin or ill-fitting socks can contribute to discomfort. Allow for a break-in period as new shoes often need time to conform to your foot shape.

Setup

Getting started with your Gelert Horizon shoes is straightforward. Simply use the classic lacing system to thread the laces through the eyelets and tie them securely. Adjust the tension to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit around your foot. The pull loop at the heel assists with easily sliding your foot into the shoe.

Compatibility

These walking shoes are designed for varied surfaces, making them compatible with a wide array of outdoor environments. They perform well on trails, sidewalks, gravel paths, and uneven natural terrains. They are suitable for general outdoor activities, light hiking, dog walking, and daily wear in diverse weather conditions.

Care

To ensure the longevity and performance of your Gelert Horizon Waterproof Walking Shoes, proper care is essential. The shoes feature a synthetic upper, which should be cleaned using a soft damp cloth. Gently wipe away any dirt or mud. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as these can damage the waterproof membrane and the shoe's materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources, to prevent material degradation.
