FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Bridger Low Bdry typically offers a standard fit. While the webbing eyelets help prevent toe pinch, individuals with very wide feet may find them restrictive. Trying them on is the best way to determine fit.

How long does the BDry waterproofing typically last?

The BDry membrane is designed for durability. With proper care and maintenance, it can last for the expected lifespan of the shoe. Periodic re-application of waterproofing treatments can help maintain performance.

Can I machine wash these hiking shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the adhesives, waterproof membrane, and materials. Hand wash using a soft brush, damp cloth, and mild soap, then air dry.

What is the advantage of a TPU chassis?

The TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) chassis provides torsional stability, helping to prevent the shoe from twisting excessively on uneven terrain. This enhances support and reduces foot fatigue during long hikes.

Do I need to wear special socks with these shoes?

For best results, especially with the BDry waterproof system, it is recommended to wear moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks. Avoid cotton socks, as they retain moisture and can lead to discomfort and blisters.

What is the return policy if the fit isn't right?

Please refer to the specific retailer's return policy for details on exchanges or returns due to fit issues. It's always advisable to try shoes on indoors before venturing outdoors if possible.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp despite waterproof claims

Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any tears or damage to the BDry membrane. Ensure socks are not the source of moisture (e.g., cotton socks hold moisture).

Slipping on wet surfaces

Clean the outsoles to remove any accumulated mud or debris that could impede traction. The Granite Peak outsole is designed for grip, but extreme conditions can challenge any tread pattern.

Discomfort or rubbing after short wear

The shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for progressively longer durations. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly; not too tight and not too loose, especially around the ankle.

Materials appear worn or damaged

Inspect for specific damage. Clean thoroughly and consider applying appropriate leather conditioners or waterproofing treatments. For significant damage, consult with a footwear repair specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is recommended to wear them for short durations initially to allow your feet to adapt.

Compatibility: Ideal for hiking, walking, and general outdoor activities. They pair well with moisture-wicking socks and appropriate outdoor apparel.

Care: To maintain the waterproof qualities and extend the life of the shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a brush. Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  3. Waterproofing: Periodically re-apply a waterproofing treatment suitable for nubuck leather and waterproof membranes to maintain optimal performance.
