FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
This specific white variant is designed for durability and breathability, though performance across different weather conditions can be improved with aftermarket protective sprays.
How should I clean the white material?
Use a soft brush to remove dried mud, followed by a damp cloth with mild detergent. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Are these suitable for long-distance backpacking?
Yes, their stable construction and supportive build are well-suited for long-distance hiking, provided the shoes are properly broken in before a long trip.
Do I need to size up?
The Skychaser AX5 generally fits true to size for an adult female foot; however, if you prefer extra room for thicker socks, a half-size increase may be considered.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or specialized hiking insoles if needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after long hikes
Feet naturally swell during activity; ensure laces are adjusted periodically and use moisture-wicking socks to reduce friction.
Accumulation of dirt on the white exterior
Wipe away loose debris immediately after your hike using a damp cloth and mild soap to prevent stains from setting.
Slippage on very smooth wet rock
While the traction is advanced, adjust your stride to be more deliberate and utilize trekking poles for added stability on extremely slick surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, pair these shoes with performance hiking socks that manage moisture effectively. Given their white color, it is recommended to apply a protective water and stain-repellent spray before the first use. After trekking in muddy conditions, clean the shoes using a soft brush and lukewarm water; allow them to air dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area away from direct heat sources, which can compromise the structural integrity of the materials.
