FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for very young children?
These shoes are designed for kids and are available in children's UK sizes. Ensure you select the correct size for your child's foot.
How waterproof are these hiking shoes?
The Gillon II features a waterproof and breathable membrane, along with a gusseted tongue, designed to keep feet dry from external moisture like rain and puddles.
Can these shoes be machine washed?

What is the best way to dry these boots after they get wet?

How do I ensure a good fit for my child?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Trespass and measure your child's foot to select the appropriate UK size. Ensure there is a little room for growth but not so much that the shoe is loose.
What kind of terrain are these shoes best for?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure socks are worn to prevent blisters.
Water seems to be leaking in
Check that the tongue is properly aligned and the laces are tied securely. Inspect for any visible damage to the shoe's exterior or seams. Reapply waterproofing treatment if necessary.
Mud or dirt is difficult to remove
Use a soft brush to remove dry mud. For stubborn stains, a slightly damp cloth and mild soap can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure they are dried properly afterwards.
