Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Crew Light trainers are designed for active men who spend their time near the water, whether navigating boats or exploring coastal paths. These shoes provide the key benefit of extreme breathability and lightweight comfort, making them perfect for summer heat. A notable caveat for prospective buyers is that while they are designed for water-side activities and include quick-drying technology, they are not intended for heavy-duty hiking or submersion in deep water.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are designed to be quick-drying and breathable. They will allow water to pass through the mesh but will dry out significantly faster than traditional sneakers.
Can I wear these for running?
While they are comfortable, they are designed for casual boating and strolling, not as high-performance running shoes.
Will the outsoles mark my boat deck?
No, the Crew Light trainers feature non-marking rubber outsoles specifically intended for use on boat decks.
Are the materials recycled?
Yes, Helly Hansen uses recycled components in the laces, inner lining, and reinforcement tape.
How should I clean the white sections of the shoe?
Use a gentle cloth dampened with water and a mild soap to wipe the grey and white components, avoiding abrasive scrubbers.
Troubleshooting
The mesh feels like it is accumulating fine sand.
Take the insoles out and shake the shoes upside down, then use a low-pressure air blower or a soft brush to clear the mesh pores.
Shoes develop an odor after frequent water exposure.
Remove the insoles and wash them separately with mild detergent. Allow the shoes to dry completely in a well-ventilated, shaded area.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Ultra-lightweight feel reduces fatigue during long days.
- Excellent ventilation keeps feet dry and cool.
- Quick-drying properties prevent long-term moisture accumulation.
- Reliable traction on slippery surfaces via Max-Grip rubber.
- Eco-conscious design utilizing recycled materials.
Cons
- Not suitable for technical hiking or rough mountain terrain.
- Open mesh design may allow sand or fine debris to enter.
- Primarily designed for warm, dry to wet conditions rather than cold weather.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for a standard fit consistent with UK sizing. No specialized setup is required—simply lace them up and ensure the padded collar is seated correctly around the ankle to prevent friction.
To ensure longevity:
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried salt or sand from the mesh and sole.
- Stain Removal: Use mild soap and lukewarm water to spot-clean the upper polyester material.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not place these shoes in a tumble dryer or directly against a heat source like a radiator, as this can warp the EVA midsole.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
