FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, while designed for trail running, their comfort and support make them suitable for general walking and outdoor activities.
How do I ensure I get the correct size?
Please refer to the UK sizing indicated on the product. Be aware that the box or label might show US or European sizes which differ. Trying them on is the best way to confirm fit.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and the GORE-TEX® membrane. Hand wash or spot clean as per the care instructions.
How long does the GORE-TEX® waterproofing last?
The GORE-TEX® membrane is durable and designed for long-term performance. Proper care and maintenance will help preserve its waterproof and breathable qualities.
Are these shoes good for cold weather?
The waterproof and windproof features help keep feet warm by preventing external elements from penetrating. They are suitable for cool to cold conditions when paired with appropriate socks.
What is the primary intended use for these shoes?
These trainers are primarily designed for trail running and other demanding outdoor sports that require excellent grip, durability, and weather protection.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet inside
While GORE-TEX® is waterproof, prolonged submersion or extreme pressure can lead to water ingress. Ensure laces are tied securely and check for any damage to the shoe's exterior. Allow shoes to dry completely and ensure breathability is not impeded by dirt.
Slipping on certain surfaces
The rubber outsole is designed for varied terrain. For extremely smooth or wet surfaces, grip may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris that could affect traction.
Discomfort after initial wear
New footwear often requires a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially, gradually increasing the time. Ensure the correct size is being worn, referencing UK sizing carefully.
