FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to clean them by hand using a soft brush and water to preserve the RAIN.RDY waterproof coating.
Can these be used for running?
While durable enough for trail running, they are primarily engineered as hiking shoes for trekking and outdoor walking.
What does RAIN.RDY mean?
RAIN.RDY is adidas' proprietary waterproof membrane technology designed to keep water out while remaining breathable.
How do I dry them after a rainy hike?
Remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper or a dry towel. Air dry in a well-ventilated room, avoiding direct heat.
Are they true to size?
The Terrex Ax4R generally fits true to size, but consider the thickness of the socks your child will wear when sizing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after an hour of walking
Ensure you are using appropriate hiking socks; remove the insert to check for debris inside.
Water is getting inside the shoe
Check for holes in the upper material or ensure water is not entering through the top collar during submersion.
Laces coming undone
Double-knot the laces or consider using a heel-lock lacing technique to keep the fit secure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Terrex Ax4R shoes last through the season, start by checking the fit: there should be about a thumb's width of space at the toes to allow for foot expansion during exercise. Lace them firmly to prevent heel slippage on inclines. After muddy adventures, remove the laces and brush off dried dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary, then air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the waterproof adhesive and warp the materials.
