Product Information
Full details
The adidas Terrex AX4 is a versatile, multisport hiking shoe designed for adults who demand stability and reliability across diverse terrains, from forest trails to alpine scrambles. Its key strength lies in the Continental Rubber outsole that offers exceptional traction in both wet and dry conditions, providing users with consistent confidence on the trail. While these shoes are highly durable and stable, users should note that they are designed primarily for agility and may not offer the same level of ankle support as high-cut mountaineering boots.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
This specific model (HP7388) does not feature GORE-TEX technology, so they are not waterproof.
Can I use these for running?
While the Terrex AX4 is designed as a multisport hiking shoe, its lightweight construction makes it suitable for light trail running.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing; they generally fit true to size for a regular width foot.
What is the benefit of the Continental Rubber outsole?
Continental Rubber is specifically formulated to provide better grip in both wet and dry conditions compared to standard rubber compounds.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the standard insole is removable if you need to use your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing tension and ensure you are using a runner's loop at the top eyelet for a more secure heel lock.
Debris getting inside the shoe
Ensure the gusseted tongue is centered when lacing up, and consider using gaiters if hiking in loose gravel or sand.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you test these shoes with the socks you intend to wear on your hike. The lace closure allows for a customized, secure fit across the midfoot. To maintain the life of your shoes, remove the laces and rinse off mud with cool water after use; avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and cushioning materials. Air dry the shoes in a shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the EVA foam.
