Q: Do these hiking shoes run true to size?
A: Yes, we recommend ordering your regular shoe size. They are offered in D (medium) and EE (wide) widths, so you can choose the width that gives you the most comfortable fit.
Q: How waterproof are these shoes for wet trails?
A: They are built with a waterproof leather upper and our TEK2.5 waterproof membrane. They are waterproof to 1 cm below the top of the gusseted tongue, so water can enter above that point in deeper puddles or water crossings.
Q: Are they a good choice for rainy, muddy hikes?
A: Yes, they are best for rain and mud. The redesigned VertiGrip rubber outsole lug geometry provides 50% better traction on wet surfaces to help you stay steady when conditions get slick.
Q: Do they have enough cushioning for long walks or full days on the trail?
A: Yes, they are designed with a True Performance multi-density insole and a Comfort Ride EVA midsole for comfort underfoot. Breathable polyester mesh panels and a thermoregulating lining help keep the inside feeling comfortable as you move.
Q: How do I clean them?
A: Spot clean as needed. Let them air dry thoroughly after cleaning.
Q: If I'm buying these as a gift for the holiday season, what will the recipient use them for most?
A: Most people use them for hiking and everyday walking, especially when the forecast looks wet. With waterproof protection and trail-focused features like a rubberized toe and rock plate, they are a practical pair for getting outside more often.
