Are these shoes suitable for hiking?

What is the lifespan of these shoes?

The lifespan depends on usage and care. With proper care, these shoes can last for a long time. The outsole tread will wear down with use, which will influence the lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing to find the correct fit. Consider wearing thinner socks or breaking them in for a short period.

Water is seeping into the shoes.

Check the DWR coating and reapply if needed. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or deep puddles. The shoes are water-resistant, not fully waterproof.

Outsole loses traction.

Clean the outsole with a brush and water. If the tread is excessively worn, it may be time for a new pair of shoes.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Use a specialized shoe cleaner or a mild soap solution. Test the solution on a small, inconspicuous area first.
