FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The standard series is designed for a regular fit, though the Crestwood range does offer specific 'Wide' variants if you require extra volume.
Can I use these for winter hiking?
While the shoes are waterproof, they are not insulated. They are best suited for spring, summer, and autumn use.
How do I ensure the correct size?
It is recommended to measure your feet in the evening when they are at their largest and allow for a small gap in the toe box for comfort during downhill sections.
Are the outsoles non-marking?
Yes, the Omni-Grip rubber is non-marking, making them safe for use on various surfaces.
How long should I expect them to last?
Durability depends on usage frequency and terrain, but with proper cleaning and care, the materials are designed for long-term trail performance.
Troubleshooting
Feeling damp inside despite waterproof claims
Ensure your pant legs are not channeling water into the shoe opening; consider using gaiters in very wet conditions.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Re-lace the shoes using the top eyelets to secure the heel, or consider a thicker sock to improve fit.
Accumulated dirt reducing grip
Use a stiff brush to clear debris from the Omni-Grip tread pattern to restore full traction contact with the ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are low-cut hiking shoes, ensure your choice of socks aligns with the climate; moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool blends are recommended to maximize the effectiveness of the breathable membrane. To maintain the life of your Crestwood WP shoes, avoid washing them in a machine, which can compromise the waterproof seal. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush after every hike. If the shoes become very muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, as excessive heat can degrade the adhesives used in the sole construction.
