Product Information
Full details
This guide is for female adult athletes seeking reliable trainers for trail running and outdoor activities. The key benefit is enhanced grip and waterproof protection for varied terrains. A potential caveat is the specific UK 8 sizing. The adidas Terrex Tracefinder trainers feature a regular fit, lace closure, textile and synthetic upper, OrthoLite sockliner for comfort, and a robust rubber outsole with TRAXION lugs for superior traction. They offer basic waterproof protection and a moderate midsole drop.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for very heavy rain?
The trainers offer 'Waterproof_BASIC' protection, which is effective against light rain and shallow puddles. For prolonged immersion or very heavy downpours, your feet may eventually get wet.
What is the primary intended use for these trainers?
These trainers are designed primarily for trail running, hiking, and general outdoor activities where grip and some water resistance are beneficial.
How do I clean the OrthoLite sockliner?
You can remove the sockliner and wash it gently by hand with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinserting it into the shoe.
What does the midsole drop of 10 mm mean?
A 10 mm midsole drop means there is a 10 mm difference in height between the heel and the forefoot. This is a moderate drop that supports a natural foot movement during running or walking.
How much do these trainers weigh?
These trainers weigh approximately 311.8 grams (per shoe).
Can I use these for road running?
While they can be used for occasional road running, their design with TRAXION lugs is optimized for off-road traction. For dedicated road running, a shoe specifically designed for that surface might be more suitable.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on wet surfaces.
Ensure the TRAXION outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. Worn-out lugs may indicate the need for replacement.
Feet feel damp after use in wet conditions.
Confirm the 'waterproof_BASIC' protection is sufficient for the conditions. If exposed to deep water, saturation may occur. Ensure laces are tied correctly to maximize upper protection.
Discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Adjust lacing for a more secure but not overly tight fit. Ensure the correct size is being used. The OrthoLite sockliner should provide cushioning; if persistent discomfort occurs, consider potential break-in period or alternative lacing techniques.
Odour development.
Remove the OrthoLite sockliner and air it out separately. Wash sockliners gently by hand and allow to dry completely. Store trainers in a well-ventilated area.
