FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for very young children or toddlers?
These shoes are designed for kids and feature a regular fit with lace closure. While they offer good support and comfort, supervision is recommended during initial wear to ensure a proper fit and secure lacing for younger children.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
It is recommended to measure your child's feet and compare them to the size chart. The Adifit length-measuring insole included with the shoe can also be used as a guide by placing your child's foot on it to check the length.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and waterproofing.
What is the purpose of the RAIN.RDY technology?
RAIN.RDY technology provides waterproof and breathable protection, keeping your child's feet dry and comfortable in wet weather conditions while allowing perspiration to escape.
What is the difference between the Terrex Trailmaker 2 and other hiking shoes?
The Terrex Trailmaker 2 combines the lightweight cushioning of running shoes with the support and grip of hiking shoes, offering a versatile option for adventurous kids who engage in various outdoor activities.
How durable are the abrasion-resistant inserts?
The abrasion-resistant inserts are designed to withstand scuffs and wear from rough terrain and active play, contributing to the shoe's overall longevity.
What is the midsole drop, and why is it important?
The midsole drop is the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot (8.5 mm in this case). A moderate drop like this supports a natural stride and can be comfortable for various activities.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp despite the waterproof claim.
Ensure the laces are tied securely to prevent water ingress around the tongue. Check that the tongue itself is properly positioned to create a seal. Deep submersion may exceed the waterproofing limits.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Verify the size using the Adifit insole or by checking the fit against the child's foot. Loosen the laces to allow for adjustments, especially if the child's feet swell during activity. Consider socks that are too thick.
Traction seems reduced on slippery surfaces.
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any mud, dirt, or debris that may be clogging the tread pattern. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn; consider replacement if the tread is significantly degraded.
Odors developing inside the shoe.
Remove the insoles and allow both the insoles and shoes to air dry completely after each use. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight. Regular washing as per care instructions can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These shoes require no special setup beyond lacing them up for a secure fit. The Adifit insole can be used to check for the correct size by placing the child's foot on top of it to ensure the longest toe does not extend beyond the front.
Compatibility:
The shoes are designed for general outdoor activities, including hiking, walking, and casual wear on various terrains. They are compatible with standard outdoor clothing and gear.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Clean the shoes regularly to maintain their performance and appearance. Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and mud from the upper and outsole. For stubborn stains, a mild soap can be used with water.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources, such as radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials. Remove the insoles and dry them separately if they become particularly wet.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While RAIN.RDY is a durable technology, avoid harsh chemical cleaners that could compromise the material's integrity. Periodic treatment with a fabric protector suitable for outdoor footwear can help maintain water resistance.
