FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Relay Fly Vent is made from leather and textile and is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles.
Can I use these for hiking?
While durable, these are lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for technical hiking or rugged off-trail adventures.
How should I clean the textile parts?
Use a soft-bristled brush and a mild soap-water solution, then let them air dry out of direct sunlight.
Does the sizing run true?
The Relay Fly Vent generally follows standard women's sizing, though personal fit preferences may vary depending on sock thickness.
What materials are used for the upper?
The upper is crafted from a combination of leather and textile materials for a balance of durability and style.
Troubleshooting
The leather upper is showing water spots
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Laces consistently come untied
Ensure a double knot is used or replace with laces of a textured material if the current ones feel too slippery.
Footbed feels less supportive after long-term use
Consider swapping the factory insole for an aftermarket orthotic insert for customized arch support.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Lightweight and comfortable for extended daily wear
- Easy to clean and maintain given the material composition
Cons
- Not intended for strenuous outdoor hiking or rugged terrain

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; simply adjust the laces to your preferred tension upon first wear to ensure a secure fit. For care, wipe down the leather portions with a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt and use a specialized leather conditioner occasionally to prevent cracking. The textile elements can be lightly brushed with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial cleaners as this can damage the leather finish.
