FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for heavy hiking?
The ATL Trek Run GTX trainers are designed for outdoor use, including walks and moderate routes. For very strenuous or technical hiking, specialized hiking boots with more aggressive tread and ankle support might be more appropriate.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the size guide for Clarks footwear. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and that the heel does not slip. Trying them on with the type of socks you typically wear for outdoor activities is recommended.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, the waterproof membrane, and the adhesive. Hand clean them as per the care instructions.
What does 'GTX' stand for?
GTX stands for GORE-TEX, a brand of waterproof and breathable membrane technology used in the lining of the trainers to keep your feet dry from the outside while allowing moisture to escape from the inside.
How long does the waterproof feature typically last?
The GORE-TEX membrane is designed for long-lasting performance. However, its effectiveness can be maintained by following the recommended care instructions and periodically re-applying water repellent treatments to the upper materials.
What materials are used in the trainers?
The trainers feature a combination of textile and leather for the upper, a textile lining, and a synthetic sole.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping into the trainers
Ensure the laces are tied securely to create a good seal. If the issue persists after cleaning and drying, the waterproof membrane might be compromised. Check for visible damage or consider professional repair. Ensure you have followed the correct care instructions.
Discomfort or rubbing
Break in the trainers gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Check that the laces are not too tight or too loose.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
The synthetic sole is designed for general traction. For extremely wet or slippery conditions, proceed with caution. Clean the sole of any debris that might be affecting grip.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult men. Designed for a variety of outdoor and casual settings.
Care: To maintain the condition and waterproof properties of your ATL Trek Run GTX trainers:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth to wipe down the leather and textile. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and the waterproof membrane.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While the GTX lining is durable, consider using a spray-on waterproofer specifically designed for footwear to maintain optimal water repellency on the upper materials, especially after prolonged use or cleaning.
