Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather construction offers some resistance to light moisture, they are not classified as waterproof.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather upper and the internal comfort structures; spot clean with a cloth instead.
Is the memory foam removable?
Yes, the air-cooled memory foam insole is removable, which is helpful if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
These are designed as trail trainers for walking and light activity; they lack the specific shock absorption needed for long-distance running.
Does the Hands Free feature wear out?
The heel structure is designed for durability, but avoid forcing your foot in excessively to prolong the life of the heel support.
Troubleshooting
Heel feels loose when walking
Ensure your foot is fully pushed into the shoe to activate the Heel Pillow; if it persists, consider a slightly thicker sock to improve the internal fit.
Outsole collecting mud and debris
Use a stiff brush to clear the tread of the Goodyear outsole after trail use to maintain optimal grip performance.
Memory foam feels compressed over time
Remove the insole periodically and let it air out for 24 hours to allow the foam to decompress and regain its shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box, requiring no specialized break-in period thanks to the memory foam construction. For sizing, they follow standard UK adult sizing, though the Relaxed Fit allows for a slightly larger internal volume. To maintain the leather upper, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud and a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for stains. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue to weaken.
