Product Information
Full details
The North Face Glenclyffe Trainers are designed for active adults who need a versatile shoe that bridges the gap between technical mountain gear and everyday urban footwear. Drawing inspiration from the brand's high-performance Summit Series™, these trainers provide a robust combination of support and stability, though they are primarily optimized for pavement and light trail use rather than rugged mountain mountaineering.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Glenclyffe trainers are built for protection, but they are not marketed as fully waterproof footwear.
Can I use these for long-distance hiking?
These are best suited for urban walking and light trails; for high-altitude technical hiking, we recommend shoes from our dedicated Summit Series™ mountaineering line.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The Glenclyffe line is available in various UK sizes. Always measure your foot and check the specific size chart provided for this model.
Is the sole replaceable?
The Vibram® outsole is permanently bonded to the shoe for structural integrity and cannot be replaced.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the materials and rubber quality.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole picking up debris
Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove stones or mud caught in the tread pattern after use.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing tension throughout the midfoot; ensure you are using the correct size for your arch type.
Scuffing on the rubber toe cap
Clean the area with a damp cloth; the cap is designed to be durable and aesthetic blemishes do not affect structural integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, always break them in by wearing them for short periods during the first week. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush after each use. If they get muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. Always air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials and impact the longevity of the rubber components.
