FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for hiking?

The Glenclyffe Low is designed for versatility and offers good traction with its VIBRAM® sole, making it suitable for light trails and urban exploration. However, its low-profile design means it may not provide adequate ankle support or protection for rugged, demanding hiking conditions.

How do I adjust the speed lacing system?

To tighten, pull both ends of the laces upwards. To loosen, press the toggle button and pull the laces. You can fine-tune the fit by adjusting the tension as needed.

What does 'low profile' mean for these shoes?

A low-profile design means the shoe sits closer to the ground and does not extend high up the ankle. This offers a sleek look and greater freedom of movement, ideal for urban environments.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and the integrity of the VIBRAM® sole and EVA insole. Hand-cleaning as per the care instructions is the best method.

What is the benefit of the EVA foam insole?

The EVA foam insole provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, which helps to reduce foot fatigue and enhance comfort during prolonged wear.

Are the recycled materials used in the shoe durable?

Yes, The North Face integrates recycled materials with the aim of maintaining durability and performance standards. These materials contribute to the shoe's overall resilience while supporting eco-friendly practices.

What kind of surfaces does the VIBRAM® sole perform best on?

VIBRAM® soles are known for their excellent grip on a wide variety of surfaces, including dry and wet rock, packed earth, gravel, and urban pavement. They are engineered for durability and reliable traction.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tighten or loosen

Ensure the speed lacing system is clean and free of debris. Check that the cord is not snagged or tangled. Gently manipulate the toggles to free up the mechanism.

Foot feels uncomfortable or lacks support

Adjust the tightness of the speed lacing system. Consider adding aftermarket insoles for enhanced arch support or cushioning if needed.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

Clean the VIBRAM® sole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt or residue that might be affecting grip. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn.

Shoes appear dirty after use

Follow the recommended care instructions for cleaning the synthetic upper and sole. Spot clean as needed to maintain appearance.

Compatibility: The Glenclyffe Low is designed for adult wear and is compatible with most casual and outdoor attire. It functions well in urban settings, on light trails, and for everyday activities.

Care: To maintain the longevity and appearance of your Glenclyffe Lows:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Remove loose dirt from the VIBRAM® sole with a brush. A damp cloth can be used for more thorough cleaning.
  3. Insole Care: The EVA insole can be removed for airing out or spot cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
  4. Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
