FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable, the aggressive tread pattern and trail-specific design are optimized for outdoor trails. They can be worn casually, but their primary purpose is for hiking and trail running.
How do I know if the size is right?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without excessive slipping.
Can I use these for road running?
These shoes are designed for trail use. The aggressive outsole can wear down quickly on pavement and may feel less comfortable or stable for road running compared to dedicated road shoes.
How long does the waterproofing last?
The waterproof membrane is durable, but its effectiveness can diminish over time with heavy use and wear. Regular cleaning and proper drying help maintain its performance.
What is the difference between Speedcross Peak and other Speedcross models?
The Speedcross Peak typically incorporates enhanced cushioning and a protective band for superior comfort and protection on rougher terrain, compared to standard Speedcross models.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are usually removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite being waterproof
Ensure the shoe's waterproof membrane is intact and not compromised. Check that laces are tied correctly to prevent water ingress from the top. If the shoe has been submerged, water may enter from the top opening.
Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight
Verify you have the correct size. Consider using thinner socks or adjusting lacing patterns. If the issue persists, the shoe's fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.
Reduced grip on certain surfaces
Clean the outsole treads of mud or debris. Aggressive lugs are optimized for soft ground; grip may be reduced on very smooth or wet rock.
Shoes squeak during walking
Squeaking can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or friction points. Try ensuring the shoes are completely dry. If it persists, it may be a characteristic of the materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. A proper lacing technique can further enhance fit and support.
Compatibility:
Designed primarily for trail running and hiking. They are suitable for adult female users. While the aggressive tread offers excellent grip on soft surfaces, it may wear more rapidly on pavement or hard-packed trails.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush or cloth. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
- 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 adhesives.
- Waterproofing: The waterproof membrane's effectiveness can be maintained by cleaning the shoes regularly. Avoid machine washing or drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
