Scarpa Crux Hiking Shoes - Grey - UK 10

The Scarpa Crux is ideal for approach routes, rocky trails, and general hiking where good grip and a lightweight feel are essential. They perform well on dry rock, scree, and moderate, uneven terrain.

It is recommended to try on the shoes if possible, as sizing can vary. Wear the type of socks you would typically use for hiking. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box without your heel slipping.

The Scarpa Crux shoes are designed with water resistance in mind, particularly the Vibram sole and synthetic upper components. However, they are not fully waterproof. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion, consider waterproof socks or gaiters.

Clean your shoes after each significant use to remove dirt and debris. Reapply waterproofing treatment to the suede upper as needed, typically every few months depending on usage and environmental conditions.

The Vibram Megagrip compound offers exceptional grip, particularly on wet and dry rock surfaces, providing enhanced stability and confidence when tackling challenging terrain.

Yes, while designed for approach and hiking, their lightweight nature and comfortable fit make them suitable for casual everyday wear, especially if you appreciate a rugged aesthetic and good traction.

Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring a snug but not constricting fit. Consider wearing them for short periods initially to break them in. If discomfort persists, they may be the wrong size.

Ensure the Vibram sole is clean from mud or debris. While the Megagrip compound is excellent, performance can be affected by contamination. Reapply a waterproofing treatment if the upper seems to be absorbing moisture.

Use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush to gently remove stains. Follow product instructions carefully. For persistent stains, professional cleaning may be an option.

Replace the laces with a new pair of durable, similarly styled laces. Ensure replacement laces are the correct length for your shoe size.
