FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® BL 1TRL is designed with a standard fit. While it offers a secure feel, individuals with significantly wide feet might find a more specialized wide-fit model more comfortable. It is recommended to try them on if possible.
How do I clean the recycled mesh materials?
The recycled mesh can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse gently and allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
What is the intended use for the Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® BL 1TRL?
These shoes are designed for versatile outdoor use, excelling on technical trails, hiking, fastpacking, and general outdoor exploration. They offer excellent grip, stability, and waterproofing.
How durable is the Vibram® TC5+ outsole?
The Vibram® TC5+ outsole is known for its durability and high-performance grip. With proper care and use on intended terrain, it provides long-lasting traction.
Is the odor control treatment permanent?
The Cleansport NXT™ odor control treatment is integrated into the materials and designed to be long-lasting. Regular cleaning according to the care instructions will help maintain its effectiveness.
Can I wear these shoes in warm weather?
While the GORE-TEX® membrane offers breathability, these shoes are primarily designed for performance in varied conditions. In very hot and humid weather, your feet may feel warmer compared to non-waterproofed options.
What does 'vegan-friendly' mean for this shoe?
Vegan-friendly means that no animal products or by-products were used in the construction of this shoe, including materials for laces, webbing, lining, and footbed cover.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp despite GORE-TEX®
Ensure laces are securely tied and the tongue is properly positioned to prevent water ingress. Check for any visible damage to the GORE-TEX® membrane. Wash the shoes according to care instructions to ensure the membrane is free of debris.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
Clean the Vibram® TC5+ outsole of mud, dirt, or debris. The outsole's effectiveness can be compromised when excessively dirty. Inspect the lugs for wear and tear.
Discomfort or hot spots during wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Try adjusting the lacing system to better fit your foot's shape. Consider wearing different types of socks or allow a short break-in period for the shoes to mold to your feet.
Unpleasant odor developing
Allow the shoes to air out thoroughly after each use. Utilize the Cleansport NXT™ technology by washing the shoes as per care instructions. Using odor-fighting insoles can also help.
