FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The SpeedArc Matis focuses on breathability and athletic performance; they are not inherently waterproof.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While they are designed for fast hiking, they lack the specific mechanical cushioning required for high-mileage road running.
How do I find my size?
These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing. If you prefer extra room for thick socks, you may want to measure your feet later in the day when they are naturally slightly larger.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if preferred.
Is the material easy to keep clean?
The synthetic upper materials are generally easy to wipe clean, though lighter colorways will show mud more prominently than the grey versions.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage while walking
Try a 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing technique to better secure the ankle area.
Accumulated debris inside the shoe
Consider wearing low-profile gaiters if you are traversing particularly dusty or sandy trails.
Feeling of insufficient arch support
Ensure the stock insole is seated correctly, or replace with an aftermarket orthotic insole if you have specific arch requirements.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Seamless style transition from city streets to hiking trails
- High level of comfort for all-day wear
- Effective propulsion assistance for fast-paced hiking
- Lightweight build reduces exhaustion
- Stable support on uneven ground
Cons
- Not suitable for technical alpine climbing
- Requires proper sizing for optimal arch comfort
- Light-colored models may show trail dirt more easily
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your SpeedArc Matis, start by ensuring the laces are adjusted to lock your heel in place without constricting the midfoot. These shoes work best with moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool socks to prevent friction.
Care Instructions:
- After muddy hikes, let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the adhesives.
- Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dried dirt from the outsole tread.
- If the upper becomes heavily soiled, wipe down with a mild detergent and a damp cloth; avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the structural support components.
