FAQs

How do I clean the leather?

Use a damp cloth to wipe off dirt. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Lite Newhide 2 is water-resistant but not fully waterproof. The leather will provide some protection in wet conditions.

What kind of socks should I wear?

Hiking socks are recommended. Consider the weather conditions, and wear thicker socks in colder weather.

How long will the shoes last?

With proper care, these shoes can last for several years. The longevity depends on usage and maintenance.

What is BLOOM™ technology?

BLOOM™ technology uses algae biomass to create the EVA midsole and insole, promoting sustainability.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

These shoes are designed for hiking and walking. While they can be used for light trail running, they are not specifically optimized for that activity.

What if the shoes don't fit?

Refer to Craghoppers return policy. Ensure you try them on indoors on a clean surface to keep them in good condition for return.

Where are these shoes manufactured?

The manufacturing information is not available in the provided product data.

Troubleshooting

Leather is scuffed or scratched.

Use a leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, consider professional leather repair.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Allow time for the shoes to break in, or use a shoe stretcher to expand the leather. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks.

Odour persists despite use of the odour-elimination technology.

Clean the insoles or replace them. Consider using shoe deodorizers or airing out the shoes regularly.

Traction seems reduced.

Clean the outsole with a brush and water to remove any dirt or debris that may be reducing grip.
