FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Gel Venture 11 features a breathable mesh upper designed for ventilation, meaning they are not fully waterproof.
Can I use these for road running?
While capable, the lugged outsole is specifically designed for trails; using them on concrete for extended periods may increase outsole wear.
How do I choose the right size?
These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing; it is recommended to allow for a small amount of extra room in the toe box for downhill comfort.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite Hybrid Max Lite insoles are removable for cleaning or to accommodate custom orthotics.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, trail shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of the terrain and your usage frequency.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole debris accumulation
Use a stiff brush to clear mud and rocks from the multidirectional lugs after every hike.
Feeling damp inside the shoe
Remove the OrthoLite insole after use to allow for complete moisture evaporation and improved airflow.
Foam compression or loss of cushioning
Ensure you are rotating your shoes if hiking daily to allow the foam to decompress and recover its shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel Venture 11 shoes, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. For the initial setup, ensure you wear the type of socks you plan to hike in to check for proper fit. If they become dirty, remove the OrthoLite insole and wash it separately with mild soap and water. Clean the exterior of the shoes by brushing off dried mud with a soft-bristle brush rather than using high-pressure water, which can damage the bonding agents. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area—never place them near a heat source like a radiator, as this can warp the midsole foam.
