FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for summer hiking?

Yes, they are suitable, though the waterproof OutDry membrane is warmer than non-waterproof shoes. They are best for spring, autumn, or rainy conditions.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is recommended to clean them by hand using a soft brush and water. Machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and adhesives.

Do they provide good arch support?

The Techlite+ foam midsole is designed to be supportive, and the OrthoLite Eco insole provides additional comfort and arch support.

What is the primary difference between these and standard sneakers?

These include a waterproof membrane, a high-traction outsole with 5mm lugs, and structural supports like the Navic Fit system that sneakers lack.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Gently scrub the mesh with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical detergents.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure or tightness in the midfoot

Loosen the lacing near the midfoot and ensure the Navic Fit system isn't pulled too taut across the arch.

Water penetrating the shoe during heavy rain

Ensure the shoe is laced properly and that no water is entering through the ankle collar; check for any debris trapped in the eyelets.

Reduced traction on slick surfaces

Clean the outsole with a stiff brush to remove dried mud and debris trapped between the 5mm lugs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection in rain or slush
  • Superior grip on technical terrain due to 5mm lugs
  • Highly responsive foam cushioning for reduced foot fatigue
  • Secure midfoot fit prevents movement inside the shoe

Cons

  • Waterproof membrane may reduce airflow in high temperatures
  • Requires proper sizing for an optimal midfoot lock-down
  • Not intended for extreme mountaineering or heavy climbing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Peakfreak II shoes, begin by ensuring the laces are tightened through the Navic Fit system to lock your heel in place. These shoes are compatible with standard hiking socks; avoid extra-thick wool socks if you are on the edge of your size range to prevent pressure points. To maintain the waterproof integrity of the OutDry material, periodically rinse off mud and trail debris using clean water and a soft brush. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can degrade the adhesives and foam components.
