FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance trekking?
The EVA midsole provides cushioning for comfort, making them suitable for moderate to long day hikes. For multi-day treks with heavy loads, consider a model with more robust support.
How do I determine my UK size?
Refer to standard UK sizing charts. These shoes are designed for adult male foot sizes. Ensure your foot length measurements align with the UK 9.5 size.
Can I wear these shoes in heavy rain?
The CLIMAPROOF technology offers water resistance, making them suitable for rain. However, for prolonged heavy downpours or deep water, water may eventually seep in.
What is the main advantage of the TRAXION outsole?
The TRAXION outsole is designed with multi-directional lugs to provide optimal grip on various surfaces, enhancing stability and preventing slips during hiking.
How often should I clean my hiking shoes?
Clean your shoes after each significant use, especially if they are muddy or wet. Regular cleaning helps maintain their performance and prolong their lifespan.
Can these shoes be used for trail running?
While they offer good grip, they are primarily designed as hiking shoes. For trail running, dedicated trail running shoes with more flexibility and lighter weight are generally recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit. Check if the size is correct for your foot. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the TRAXION outsole is clean from mud or debris. While designed for grip, extreme conditions may still present challenges. For very slippery conditions, exercise caution.
Feet feel wet despite CLIMAPROOF
Check for any damage to the shoe material or seams. Ensure laces are tied correctly to prevent water ingress from the top. Prolonged submersion in water may exceed the CLIMAPROOF limit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These shoes require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit. Adjust the laces to secure your foot snugly before each use.
Compatibility: Designed for hiking and outdoor activities. They are suitable for men who engage in regular trail walking.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and mud from the upper and outsole. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used gently. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Waterproofing: While featuring CLIMAPROOF, regular maintenance and cleaning help preserve the water-resistant properties. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and waterproof membrane.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure they are clean and dry before long-term storage.
