FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not fully waterproof. The premium leather offers some natural water resistance, but they are not designed for heavy rain or submersion. For added protection, consider applying a water-resistant spray.
What is ReBOTL™ fabric?
ReBOTL™ fabric is a material used by Timberland that contains at least 50% recycled PET plastic. It helps divert plastic waste from landfills and oceans, contributing to more sustainable footwear.
Can I use these for serious hiking?
The Sprint Trekker is designed for light trails and urban use, offering comfort and traction for everyday adventures. For serious, rugged hiking or technical terrain, specialized hiking boots are recommended.
How do I clean the beige leather?
To clean the beige leather, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for the leather type. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
What kind of support do these trainers offer?
These trainers offer excellent underfoot support and cushioning through their OrthoLite® super soft foam insoles and an EVA footbed. The mid-height design also provides moderate ankle support for stability.
How do I find the correct size?
Timberland footwear generally runs true to size. It's recommended to consult Timberland's official size guide and consider trying them on, preferably with the type of socks you typically wear, to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The leather upper requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations over a few days to allow the materials to soften and conform to your feet. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.
Laces frequently come undone.
Try using a different lacing technique, such as the surgeon's knot, or double-knot your laces for improved security. Ensure laces are not excessively worn or smooth.
Squeaking sound from the footbed.
This can sometimes occur if the insole shifts or there's friction. Remove the OrthoLite® insole, sprinkle a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe and on the bottom of the insole, then reinsert. Ensure the insole is seated correctly.
Foot feels sweaty or hot.
Ensure you are wearing breathable socks, preferably made of moisture-wicking materials. The ReBOTL™ lining helps with breathability, but proper sock choice is key. Allow shoes to air out between wears.

Care
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: For dirt and scuffs, gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for the leather type. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the ReBOTL™ Fabric Lining: Gently wipe the fabric interior with a damp cloth. For odors, consider using a shoe deodorizer.
- Drying: Always allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Protection: Apply a quality leather protector or water-resistant spray periodically to help repel water and stains, extending the life and appearance of the trainers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing with newspaper or shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
