FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy mountaineering?

The Brasher Country Classic Hiking Shoes are designed for walking, hiking, and casual use. While robust, they are not intended for technical mountaineering which requires specialized rigid boots.

How do I clean the eVent lining?

The eVent lining is designed to manage moisture from the inside out. Focus on cleaning the exterior leather and midsole. For internal cleaning, a gentle wipe with a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid harsh detergents.

What is the weight of a single shoe?

Each shoe weighs approximately 550g.

Can I replace the PU footbed?

Yes, the PU footbed can typically be removed, allowing you to insert custom orthotics or alternative insoles if needed, provided they are of a similar thickness.

How often should I re-waterproof the leather?

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. It is generally recommended to re-waterproof annually or whenever you notice water is no longer beading on the surface.

Are these shoes true to size?

Based on user feedback, these shoes generally fit true to size. However, fitting with appropriate hiking socks is recommended for the best assessment.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp despite waterproof claims

Ensure the eVent membrane is not compromised. Check for significant wear or damage. Also, confirm that moisture isn't entering from the top of the boot; ensure socks are also moisture-wicking and that the shoe is laced properly to prevent gaps.

Reduced grip on slippery surfaces

Clean the outsole thoroughly with water to remove any mud or debris that might be filling the tread pattern. Examine the outsole for excessive wear; if significantly worn down, replacement might be necessary.

Discomfort or rubbing around the ankle

Ensure the shoes are laced correctly and not too tight. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the leather-lined cuffs to soften and conform to your ankle shape. Consider using thicker hiking socks.

Leather appears dry or cracked

Apply a suitable leather conditioner or waterproofing treatment designed for hiking boots. This will help to rehydrate the leather and maintain its suppleness and protective qualities.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Lacing: Ensure the shoes are laced evenly, starting from the bottom eyelets and working your way up. Tighten to a comfortable level that secures your foot without restricting circulation.
  2. Fit Check: Wear with appropriate hiking socks to confirm a snug but comfortable fit. There should be ample room in the toe box, and no pinching at the heel or sides.

Compatibility:

  • Socks: Recommended for use with moisture-wicking hiking socks, preferably wool or synthetic blends, to complement the shoe's breathability.
  • Terrain: Suitable for walking, hiking, and casual wear on a variety of terrains, including trails, paths, and uneven ground.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or submerging the shoes in water.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the leather and waterproof membrane.
  • Treatment: Periodically apply a leather-approved waterproofing treatment to maintain the condition of the leather upper and the effectiveness of the eVent membrane. Consult the product packaging for specific treatment recommendations.
