FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane designed to provide complete waterproof protection while remaining breathable.
Can I use these for intense running?
While the XC ROAM GTX is excellent for walking and light activity, they are primarily designed as versatile trainers rather than high-performance specialized running shoes.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual size, accounting for a small amount of space for thick socks.
Are they machine washable?
It is not recommended to wash them in a machine, as it can damage the specialized GORE-TEX materials and the shoe's structure. Hand cleaning is best.
Are these suitable for winter conditions?
They offer great protection against wetness and mud, though they are not specifically insulated for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Water penetrating the shoe
Ensure the laces are tied correctly to prevent water entry at the tongue and check that the outer material isn't heavily saturated; if issues persist, ensure the waterproof membrane isn't punctured.
Discomfort or pinching during wear
Adjust the lacing tension and ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of sock; consider using aftermarket insoles if additional arch support is required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed to fit true to size. To maintain the integrity of the GORE-TEX lining and the outer materials, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush after use. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the waterproof membrane.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as high temperatures can damage the adhesives and structural components.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the shoes.
- Compatibility: Best paired with moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool socks to maximize the effectiveness of the breathable waterproof membrane.
