FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy running?
While they feature robust cushioning, the Omni 9 GTX is designed primarily for lifestyle, walking, and casual activity rather than high-mileage performance running.
Can I wear these in the snow?
Yes, the GORE-TEX upper provides excellent protection against slush and cold, though the outsole is designed for standard urban surfaces rather than deep, icy terrain.
How do I maintain the waterproof membrane?
Keep the shoes clean and free of dirt buildup, and avoid using harsh chemicals or oil-based cleaners that can clog the pores of the GORE-TEX material.
Is the sizing true to fit?
They generally follow standard UK sizing, but the TPU cage provides a snug, secure fit; if you have wide feet, you may find them slightly narrow.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to use custom orthotics or if you need to facilitate faster drying after a wet day.
Troubleshooting
Water penetrating the shoe during heavy rain
Ensure the laces are tied securely to seal the tongue area, and check for any debris inside that may be compromising the GORE-TEX seal.
Interior feels damp after a long day
While GORE-TEX is breathable, heavy exertion can trap moisture; ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks rather than cotton.

Cons
- Heavier than contemporary lightweight foam runners
- Stiffer feel due to the structured TPU cage
- Limited to casual and light activity use rather than high-performance running
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure you select your correct UK size, as the structure is relatively rigid and does not stretch as much as fabric-only trainers. When cleaning these shoes, avoid machine washing to maintain the integrity of the GORE-TEX membrane. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud and wipe the synthetic leather components with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or degrading. If the insoles become wet, remove them to speed up the drying process.
