FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for hiking?

These shoes are best suited for light hikes on well-maintained trails due to their low profile and cushioning. They are not designed for rugged, technical terrain.

How do I clean the synthetic upper?

Clean the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean, damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

What is the benefit of the VIBRAM® sole?

The VIBRAM® sole provides enhanced durability and superior traction on a wide variety of surfaces, offering reliable grip and stability.

Is the speed lacing system durable?

The speed lacing system is designed for quick and secure adjustments. It is generally durable for everyday use and light outdoor activities.

Can I replace the EVA insole?

The EVA insole provides cushioning. While not designed for easy removal, you can typically insert a compatible aftermarket insole if desired, provided it does not compromise the fit.

What does 'partially made from recycled materials' mean?

It means that certain components of the shoe, such as parts of the upper or sole, are made using recycled content, contributing to a more sustainable production process.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The synthetic upper is water-resistant to a degree, but the shoes are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain or damp conditions but not for submersion.

Troubleshooting

Laces not tightening properly

Ensure the speed lacing toggle is fully engaged and try re-adjusting the tension. Check for any debris obstructing the lacing mechanism.

Discomfort after extended wear

Verify the laces are adjusted to the correct tension for your foot. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the shallow profile suits your foot type.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

Clean the VIBRAM® sole thoroughly as dirt and debris can affect traction. While VIBRAM® offers good grip, extreme conditions may still pose a slipping hazard.

Synthetic upper appears dirty

Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
