FAQs
Are these shoes truly waterproof?
Yes, they feature a Gore-Tex membrane designed to block external water while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While the Vibram sole provides great grip, these are primarily designed for urban environments and city walking rather than rugged, off-trail hiking.
How should I clean the exterior?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not put them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the waterproofing properties.
Do they fit true to size?
Most users find them true to size, but consider the thickness of the socks you intend to wear during the colder months.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to use custom orthotics if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks to assist the Gore-Tex membrane in managing internal foot humidity.
Outsole losing traction
Check for debris or dried mud lodged in the tread patterns; clean the soles thoroughly with a stiff brush and water.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are low-cut shoes, they pair naturally with everyday trousers, jeans, or technical activewear. To maintain the integrity of the Gore-Tex membrane and the quality of the exterior materials, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush after use.
- Stain Removal: Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized spots; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can damage the adhesive and technical fabrics.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
