FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

Yes, they feature integrated Gore-Tex technology which provides a waterproof barrier while maintaining breathability.

Can I use these for trail running?

While designed primarily for hiking, the lightweight build and grip make them capable of handling light, rugged trail running.

How should I clean my Terrex hiking shoes?

Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt, and rinse with lukewarm water. Avoid machine washing.

Do I need to break these in?

While they are comfortable out of the box, it is recommended to wear them on shorter walks before embarking on a long-distance expedition.

Is the lacing system replaceable?

The quick lacing system is designed to be durable, but if issues arise, check with an authorized repair or replacement parts provider.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel too tight or loose

Adjust the quick lacing toggle and re-tension the individual eyelet sections to find your preferred balance.

Foot feels damp inside after hiking

Ensure you are using moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks; avoid cotton as it retains sweat.

Outsole loses grip in mud

Clean the tread pattern thoroughly with a stiff brush to clear out packed debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Terrex Skychaser AX5 shoes provide longevity and comfort, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: The quick lacing system allows for granular control. Pull evenly to distribute tension across the bridge of the foot.
  2. Cleaning: After muddy hikes, brush off dried dirt with a soft-bristle brush. Use lukewarm water and a mild soap if necessary; avoid submerging or using harsh detergents.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can damage the Gore-Tex membrane and adhesive bonding.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mold growth on the fabric and maintain the integrity of the cushioning materials.
