Can I use these shoes for running?

While the shoes are suitable for walking and hiking, they are not specifically designed for running. Consider a running shoe if you plan on running.

What materials are used in the shoe?

The upper is made of waterproof synthetic leather and ripstop. They also include a GORE-TEX membrane, recycled laces, and webbing.

Are the shoes suitable for winter use?

They are suitable for winter use, but consider wearing thicker socks for added warmth in very cold conditions.

What kind of socks are best with these shoes?

Moisture-wicking socks, such as those made from merino wool or synthetic materials, are recommended for optimal comfort and performance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing, and consider wearing thinner socks or try a different size if necessary. Allow for a break-in period.

Water is entering the shoes.

Ensure the shoes are properly laced, check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane, and avoid submerging the shoes in deep water.

Odour issues.

Use odor-eliminating sprays or insoles. Allow shoes to air out after use. Clean the shoes regularly.
