FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all types of hiking?

The Karrimor Mount Walking Shoes are ideal for light hiking and trail walking on established paths and moderate terrain. For very rugged, technical, or high-altitude hiking, you might consider higher-cut boots that offer more ankle support.

How do I clean the suede material?

For basic cleaning, brush off dry dirt with a soft brush. For more stubborn dirt or stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What does 'Weathertite waterproof and breathable membrane' mean?

This technology uses a special internal lining that prevents water from getting in from the outside, keeping your feet dry. At the same time, it allows moisture vapor (sweat) from your feet to escape, helping to keep your feet comfortable and less clammy.

Can I replace the insole?

Yes, the cushioned insole is generally removable, allowing you to replace it with custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalized comfort or support.

How long do these shoes typically last?

The lifespan of your Karrimor Mount Walking Shoes depends on usage frequency, terrain, and care. With proper maintenance, they are designed for durability and should provide many miles of comfortable walking. Regularly inspect for wear and tear, especially on the sole and seams.

Do I need to 'break in' these shoes?

It is always recommended to 'break in' new walking shoes, even if they feel comfortable initially. Start with shorter walks and gradually increase distance to allow the shoes to mold to your feet and prevent discomfort on longer excursions.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite waterproof feature

Ensure laces are tight to prevent water entry from the top. Check for any cuts or punctures in the shoe's upper. Consider if water might be entering over the top in very deep puddles or heavy rain. Reapply a water repellent spray to the outer material if the surface is absorbing water heavily.

Shoes feel uncomfortable or rub

Ensure you have the correct size. Try different lacing techniques to relieve pressure points. Wear appropriate walking socks designed to reduce friction. Allow for a break-in period if they are new, as materials may need to soften.

Reduced grip on wet or slippery surfaces

Inspect the Dynagrip sole for excessive wear, especially on the treads. Ensure the soles are clean from mud or debris that could reduce traction. Adjust your walking technique on extremely slippery surfaces.

Suede material looks dull or stained

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a suede cleaner following the product instructions. Avoid excessive rubbing and ensure shoes are dry before cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your Karrimor Mount Walking Shoes is straightforward:

  1. Lacing: Fully unlace the shoes before putting them on.
  2. Insertion: Slide your foot into the shoe, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated at the back.
  3. Tightening: Begin lacing from the bottom eyelets, pulling snugly but not too tightly. Work your way up, securing a firm, even fit. Use the top eyelets for maximum ankle security and support.
  4. Testing: Walk a few steps to ensure the fit is comfortable and secure, with no pinching or slipping. Adjust lacing as needed.

Compatibility

These walking shoes are designed for:

  • Activities: General walking, light hiking, dog walking, urban exploration, and everyday outdoor use.
  • Terrain: Best suited for paths, trails, and moderate, uneven surfaces.
  • Weather: Effective in wet conditions due to their waterproof membrane.

Care Instructions

Proper care extends the life and performance of your shoes:

  1. Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy or dirty conditions, clean off excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized suede cleaner if necessary.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials, especially suede. Stuffing crumpled newspaper inside can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: While they have a built-in waterproof membrane, external water repellency of the suede/textile upper can be maintained with appropriate footwear sprays designed for suede and fabric.
  4. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
  5. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
