FAQs

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Oboz Sawtooth X Mid B-DRY features a wider forefoot and toe box, making them suitable for standard medium-high volume feet. Trying them on is the best way to confirm fit.

How do I maintain the waterproof feature?

The B-DRY membrane is inherent. Regularly clean the boots and consider conditioning the oiled nubuck upper periodically to maintain its water-repellent properties and prevent the material from drying out.

What is the weight of the Oboz Sawtooth X Mid B-DRY?

The weight is approximately 19.4 oz. / 550 grams per boot.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with aftermarket insoles if desired, provided they match the boot's volume and shape.

What type of terrain are these boots best for?

These boots are ideal for a variety of trails, including rocky, uneven, and wet conditions, thanks to their supportive design and waterproof membrane.

Are the laces and webbing made from sustainable materials?

Yes, the laces and webbing are made from 100% RPET Repreve, which is recycled material.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite B-DRY technology

Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any punctures or significant wear on the boot material. If wearing non-waterproof socks, moisture from sweat can also contribute to dampness.

Heel slipping during walks

Tighten the laces around the ankle area to engage the heel cup more effectively. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks that add some cushioning and grip.

Discomfort in the toe box

While designed for a wider fit, if discomfort persists, ensure socks are not too thick, or consider an insole with less volume. The laces can be adjusted to distribute pressure more evenly.

Boots feel stiff initially

New boots often require a break-in period. Wear them for short walks initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape. The oiled nubuck and Cordura upper will soften with use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing with B-DRY technology.
  • Comfortable cushioning suitable for long distances.
  • Secure heel fit reduces the risk of blisters.
  • Durable construction for demanding trails.
  • Accommodates wider feet comfortably.

Cons

  • May be too roomy for narrow feet.
  • Mid-height can feel restrictive for some users.
  • Heavier than minimalist trail shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. It is recommended to try them on indoors to ensure a proper fit before heading out on the trail. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug but comfortable fit, ensuring the heel is secure without being too tight.

Compatibility: Designed as hiking boots, they are compatible with most standard hiking socks. They are suitable for use on a wide range of trails, from well-maintained paths to more rugged and uneven terrain.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Remove insoles to help speed up drying.
  3. Waterproofing: The B-DRY membrane is factory applied. Periodically inspect the boots for wear and tear. Conditioning the oiled nubuck upper can help maintain its water resistance and appearance.
