FAQs

Are the Saucony Grid Aura X truly waterproof?

Yes, the inclusion of GORE-TEX® uppers provides a high level of waterproof protection, keeping your feet dry from external moisture while remaining breathable.

Can I wear these shoes for daily walking in the city?

Absolutely. The Grid Aura X is designed with a streetwear aesthetic and all-day performance in mind, making them ideal for city commutes and casual wear.

How should I clean the GORE-TEX® material?

Use a damp cloth with cold water to clean the exterior. Avoid harsh detergents. Always air dry naturally away from heat sources.

What is the primary advantage of the GORE-TEX® upgrade?

The GORE-TEX® upgrade significantly enhances the shoe's protection against the elements, ensuring waterproofing and breathability, which is crucial for unpredictable weather on trails and in urban environments.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The product information does not specify width options. It is recommended to try them on or consult the retailer regarding fit for wider feet.

What type of terrain are these shoes best suited for?

They are designed for rugged terrain and outdoor adventures, but also perform well during city commutes. They offer a balance between trail capability and urban durability.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the UK sizing provided and measure your foot if possible. It's advisable to try them on, or ensure the retailer has a good return policy if purchasing online.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX®

Check if the GORE-TEX® membrane is compromised or if water is entering through the shoe's opening. Ensure laces are tied securely. If the issue persists, the waterproofing may need reapplication or the membrane might be damaged.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris. For extremely slick surfaces, consider that no shoe offers universal grip. The Grid Aura X is designed for mixed terrain; prolonged use on highly polished indoor surfaces may reduce traction.

Shoes feel uncomfortable after initial wear

Allow more time for the shoes to break in. Wear them for short durations around the house. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, check if the size is correct or if you need an insole for better support.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace the laces with a durable, weather-resistant alternative. Ensure they are not tied too tightly, which can stress the lace material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

The Saucony Grid Aura X arrives ready to wear. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a comfortable fit. It is recommended to wear them for a short period indoors before undertaking extensive outdoor activities to break them in.

Compatibility:

These shoes are designed as unisex hiking shoes suitable for adult foot sizes. They are compatible with standard athletic socks and can be used with most insoles if additional arch support is desired.

Care:

To maintain the performance of the GORE-TEX® membrane and the overall shoe:

  1. Cleaning: After use, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth or sponge with cold water. Mild soap can be used sparingly if necessary, but avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or open flames, which can damage the materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically, you may want to reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for waterproof footwear to maintain the outer fabric's ability to shed water. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
