Product Information

Full details

The Oboz Sawtooth X Low B-DRY Walking Shoe is designed for adult males seeking a capable and comfortable hiking shoe for outdoor adventures. Its key benefit is enhanced performance with superior traction and smoother cushioning, while a potential caveat is the importance of trying them on to ensure the best fit due to variations in foot volume and specific material impacts. This shoe builds upon its predecessor with a new outsole, improved Adaptive Cushioning Technology midsole, and the reliable B-DRY waterproof membrane, all while maintaining a familiar, comfortable fit.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Oboz Sawtooth X Low B-DRY has a standard men's width, defined as C in the heel and D in the forefoot according to the Brannock Device®. While the forefoot and toe box are wider than some shoes, individuals with exceptionally wide feet should try them on to confirm fit.

How do I clean the Oboz Sawtooth X Low B-DRY shoes?

Clean loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth or a mild soap solution with a soft brush. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

Will my feet stay dry in wet conditions?

Yes, the shoes feature a B-DRY waterproof membrane designed to keep water out while allowing internal moisture to escape, ensuring your feet stay dry in wet weather and during stream crossings.

What is the Adaptive Cushioning Technology?

This technology in the midsole is designed to provide a smoother and more responsive ride, absorbing impact and reducing fatigue during extended periods of walking or hiking.

How long does it take to break in these shoes?

Break-in periods can vary. While designed for comfort, it's advisable to wear them for shorter walks initially to allow the shoe to mold to your foot's unique shape.

What is the weight of a single shoe?

A single Oboz Sawtooth X Low B-DRY Walking Shoe weighs approximately 16.9 oz. / 479 grams.

Are the laces and webbing made from sustainable materials?

Yes, the laces and webbing used in the Oboz Sawtooth X Low B-DRY are made from 100% RPET Repreve, which is derived from recycled plastic bottles.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet after hiking in rain

Ensure laces are tied securely to maximize the effectiveness of the B-DRY membrane. Check for any punctures or damage to the shoe's upper or sole. If the shoe is old, the waterproof membrane may have degraded; consider re-treating the upper or replacing the shoe.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Try wearing thinner socks or re-lacing the shoes with a different pattern. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, the width or volume may not be suitable for your foot. Consult with a footwear specialist for fitting advice.

Lack of traction on slippery surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from mud or debris, as this can affect grip. The tread pattern is designed for optimal traction, but extreme conditions may still present challenges. The outsole may show signs of wear over time; consider replacement if traction is significantly reduced.

Upper material shows signs of wear

Regular cleaning and conditioning of the oiled nubuck and Cordura mesh will help prolong the shoe's life. Address any scuffs or abrasions promptly with appropriate leather care products.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Oboz Sawtooth X Low B-DRY Walking Shoes are ready for immediate use upon purchase. Ensure they fit comfortably before embarking on any significant outdoor activity. We recommend wearing them for shorter walks initially to allow your feet to adapt to the shoe's structure.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for hiking and walking on varied outdoor terrains. They are compatible with most standard hiking socks. The width is standard men's (C in heel, D in forefoot), suitable for average foot volumes. For individuals with very high arches or significantly wider feet, trying them on is essential.

Care: To maintain the waterproof B-DRY membrane and the integrity of the materials:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth or a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. 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 materials and compromise the waterproof membrane.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically treat the oiled nubuck upper with appropriate leather conditioners or waterproofing sprays designed for hiking footwear to maintain its condition and water resistance.
