FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Glenclyffe trainers feature durable materials, but they are not marketed as fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry or light damp conditions.
Can I use these for hiking?
While they are inspired by the Summit Series, they are optimized for urban walking and city environments rather than technical mountain trails.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Glenclyffe series has a standard athletic fit. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to try the larger size for extra comfort.
How do I clean the rubber toe cap?
A damp cloth with mild soap is usually sufficient to wipe away scuffs and dirt from the rubber toe cap.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles in the Glenclyffe trainers are removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole appears slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the tread is clear of debris or mud, which can affect the grip of the Vibram rubber.
Tight fit around the toe box
Consider wearing thinner socks or ensure the laces are fully loosened before sliding your foot in to ensure correct positioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Glenclyffe trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are wearing your preferred weight of socks when trying them on for the first time to verify the correct sizing.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt or mud from the upper. Wipe down the outsole with a damp cloth.
- Maintenance: Avoid submerging the shoes in water. Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the materials.
