FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for heavy-duty hiking?

These trainers are designed for light to moderate outdoor activities and general use. For very rugged or technical terrain, more specialized hiking boots might be recommended.

How long does the waterproofing typically last?

The KEEN.DRY membrane is durable. With proper care, the waterproofing should remain effective for the lifespan of the product. Periodic re-application of waterproofing treatments can help maintain performance.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the waterproof membrane and adhesive components. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method.

What is the 'Eco Anti-Odour' technology?

This is a natural, probiotic-based technology that works to break down odour in sweat, helping to keep footwear fresh without the use of harsh chemicals.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing for easier cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics if needed.

What is the best way to dry these trainers if they get wet?

Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.

Is this specific model available in other colours?

This guide focuses on the black colourway for UK size 9. Other colours and sizes may be available through different product listings or retailers.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp inside.

Ensure the KEEN.DRY membrane is not compromised. Check for obvious tears or damage. Ensure socks are not the source of moisture. Allow shoes to dry thoroughly between uses.

Traction seems reduced.

Clean the rubber outsole to remove dirt and debris that may be clogging the tread pattern. If the outsole appears significantly worn, it may be time for replacement.

Unpleasant odour persists.

Ensure shoes are dried completely after each use. Remove insoles and wash them separately if possible. Use a fabric refresher spray designed for footwear or consider replacing the insoles.

Discomfort or rubbing.

Ensure you have the correct size and that laces are adjusted properly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break-in period might be required for new footwear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically, consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for outdoor footwear to maintain the effectiveness of the KEEN.DRY membrane and the upper materials.
  4. Odour Control: To maintain freshness, ensure the shoes are aired out after use. If odour persists, removable insoles can be cleaned separately.
