FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Sawtooth X Low Waterproof is designed with a standard women's width (B in the heel, C in the forefoot) and a medium-high volume. While they accommodate higher arches and insteps, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them too narrow. Trying them on is the best way to determine fit.

How do I clean the oiled nubuck upper?

Gently wipe the oiled nubuck with a damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use a soft brush with a mild soap solution, followed by a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Periodic conditioning with a suitable leather conditioner is recommended.

What does 'B-DRY Waterproof' mean for performance?

B-DRY is Oboz's proprietary waterproof/breathable technology. It consists of a membrane that prevents water from entering the shoe while allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping your feet dry and comfortable in wet conditions.

How heavy are these hiking shoes?

The Sawtooth X Low Waterproof weighs approximately 14.1 oz (400 grams) per shoe.

Can I wear these for activities other than hiking?

Yes, these shoes are designed to be versatile. They are suitable for running, trail running, and general casual wear due to their comfort and supportive features.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

While specific warranty details are best confirmed directly with the retailer or Oboz, typically, footwear brands offer a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to your purchase documentation or the Oboz website for precise warranty information.

Are the laces and webbing made from recycled materials?

Yes, the laces and webbing used in the Sawtooth X Low Waterproof are made from 100% RPET Repreve, which is a recycled material.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet inside despite the waterproof claims.

Ensure the laces are tied snugly but not overly tight, as water can wick in through the ankle collar if there are large gaps. Check that the B-DRY membrane is not compromised. Allow shoes to dry thoroughly, inside and out, as internal moisture can sometimes persist.

Slipping on certain surfaces.

Verify that the outsole is free from debris, mud, or packed snow, which can reduce traction. The new outsole is designed for superior grip, but extreme conditions can still pose challenges. Ensure you are using appropriate hiking techniques for the terrain.

Discomfort or rubbing during wear.

Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Ensure socks are appropriate for hiking and fit well. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's volume or width is suitable for your foot type, and consult with a footwear specialist if needed.

Upper material appears dry or scuffed.

Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for oiled nubuck to restore moisture and suppleness. For scuffs, a gentle buffing with a soft cloth may help; deeper scuffs are a natural part of wear for this material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes come ready to wear. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is always recommended to try on footwear to confirm the best fit, considering the standard width (B heel, C forefoot) and medium-high volume suitability.

Compatibility: The Sawtooth X Low Waterproof is designed for outdoor activities like hiking and trail running, but its comfortable design also makes it suitable for casual everyday wear. It pairs well with hiking socks for enhanced comfort and moisture management.

Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your shoes:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the oiled nubuck and Cordura mesh with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a soft brush and a mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Waterproofing Maintenance: The B-DRY membrane is inherently waterproof. For the oiled nubuck, periodic conditioning with a suitable leather conditioner can help maintain its suppleness and water resistance. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
  3. Drying: If the shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Laces: The RPET Repreve laces can be cleaned by hand washing.
