FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the D'Lux Walker features a woven fabric upper designed for breathability, not waterproof protection.
Can I use these for technical hiking?
These shoes are best suited for walking, light trails, and everyday outdoor activities, rather than technical or steep hiking.
How should I clean the footbed?
The Luxe Foam footbed is best maintained by keeping the interior dry and occasionally wiping the surface with a damp cloth.
Does the Relaxed Fit make the shoe run large?
The Relaxed Fit provides a roomier forefoot, but the shoe should be purchased in your standard UK size.
Can I wear these for gym workouts?
While excellent for walking, they are optimized for forward motion and may lack the lateral support needed for high-intensity gym training.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping within the shoe
Adjust the tension of the straps to ensure a snugger fit across the midfoot.
Difficulty cleaning dirt from fabric
Allow mud to dry completely, then use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove the debris before spot cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, follow these care guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the adjustable straps are tightened for your specific foot width to prevent slipping.
- Cleaning: Spot clean the woven upper with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing if possible to maintain the structure of the foam footbed.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
- Compatibility: These shoes are best paired with moisture-wicking walking socks to further enhance the breathability of the fabric upper.
