FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy-duty trekking?
The Peter Storm Buxton Walking Shoe is designed for general walking and hiking. For more extreme or technical terrain, a more specialized heavy-duty boot might be required.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to standard UK sizing charts. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the brand's sizing guide if available. Trying them on, if possible, is the best way to ensure a proper fit.
Can I machine wash these walking shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, construction, and waterproof properties of the shoes.
How long does the waterproofing typically last?
The longevity of the waterproofing depends on usage and care. Regular cleaning and reapplication of a suitable waterproofing treatment can help maintain its effectiveness.
What is the difference between these and standard trainers?
These walking shoes offer superior waterproofing, better ankle support (via the shank), and a more durable, grippier outsole compared to standard trainers, making them better suited for outdoor and varied terrain.
Can the laces be replaced if they wear out?
Yes, the laces can be replaced. Standard walking shoe laces of the appropriate length can be used. If it's a speed lacing system, ensure you source compatible replacement parts.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp after use
Ensure the shoes are properly dried after each use. Check for any punctures or damage to the waterproof membrane. Consider re-applying a waterproofing treatment to the upper.
Laces do not stay secure
Ensure the laces are tied correctly. If the speed lacing system is not holding tension, check for any wear on the lace or the locking mechanism.
Traction is poor on certain surfaces
The outsole is designed for general walking and hiking. For extremely slippery or icy conditions, consider using alternative footwear or adding traction devices.
Faux suede looks worn or dirty
Gently brush the faux suede with a suede brush to lift the nap and remove light dirt. For more significant marks, use a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid soaking the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for women seeking footwear for walking, hiking, and general outdoor activities. They pair well with outdoor trousers and moisture-wicking socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the faux suede and mesh upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For stubborn stains, use a suede brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
