FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all seasons?
These shoes are designed for excellent performance in wet and varied conditions, making them ideal for spring, autumn, and milder winter hiking. Their breathability is also beneficial in warmer weather, but they may not provide sufficient insulation for extreme cold.
How do I ensure the best fit with the NAVIC FIT SYSTEM?
Lace the shoes snugly, ensuring the system provides a secure midfoot lockdown without causing pressure points. The fit should feel secure but not constricting.
Can I machine wash these hiking shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the waterproof membrane, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoes. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed.
What is the primary advantage of the OutDry construction?
The OutDry construction provides a waterproof and breathable barrier, ensuring water stays out while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape, keeping your feet dry and comfortable in wet conditions.
How deep are the lugs on the Adapt Trax outsole?
The Adapt Trax outsole features 5mm lug heights, designed to provide exceptional traction on a variety of surfaces, both wet and dry.
Are these shoes good for long-distance hiking?
Yes, the combination of Techlite+ midsole cushioning, OrthoLite Eco insole, and a secure fit system makes them well-suited for long-distance hiking where comfort and stability are crucial.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite waterproof claim.
Ensure laces are securely fastened and the OutDry membrane is not compromised. Check for any tears or damage to the upper material. Allow shoes to dry completely and inspect.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
Clean the Adapt Trax outsole of any mud or debris. Ensure the lug height is sufficient for the terrain. Consider that extreme conditions may challenge any outsole's grip.
Discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Adjust the lacing for a more precise fit, ensuring the NAVIC FIT SYSTEM is engaging correctly. Wear appropriate hiking socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning after extended use.
The OrthoLite Eco insole provides long-term cushioning, but wear and tear can occur. Consider replacing the insole if significant loss of comfort is experienced.
