FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for summer hiking?
Yes, but they are specifically designed for wet, cool, or technical conditions. Due to the GORE-TEX membrane, they will be less breathable than standard non-waterproof hiking shoes.
How do I clean the Cordura upper?
Wipe the surface with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, which can degrade the water-resistant coating.
Does the toggle lacing hold securely?
Yes, the system is designed to lock in place for a secure, consistent fit without the need for manual knots.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Speedgoat series is designed with a performance-fit silhouette; check the sizing specifications carefully, as specific variants are crafted for different foot widths.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal anti-odour sock liner is removable if you need to insert custom orthotics or replace them.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during long hikes
Feet often swell during intense activity. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking hiking socks and re-adjust the toggle lacing periodically throughout your hike.
Water entering from the top
While the shoe is waterproof, water can enter through the ankle opening. Wear compatible gaiters if trekking through deep mud or snow to seal this gap.
Reduced grip on smooth rock
Check the outsole for compacted mud or debris caught in the lugs. Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear the tread to restore maximum surface contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from your Speedgoat 7 hiking shoes, ensure a proper fit during your initial break-in period. Because they are designed for performance, they should be snug but not restrictive.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After muddy hikes, rinse off the outsole and exterior with lukewarm water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, which can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the lacing system for debris and ensure the toggle mechanism moves freely.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the specialized materials.
