Description

Not every walk stays on pavement. The dog finds a shortcut, the trail map says one more mile, or the park is still wet from last night. Tallgrass is made for those walks.

Deep rubber lugs give you something to dig in with on gravel, grass and dirt paths, and the outsole is certified slip-resistant. A plush midsole cushions every step, and the soft knit upper gives your toes room to spread.

It's an outdoor walking shoe, not a hiking boot, so it looks just as right at the coffee shop afterward.

Fit and sizing

Roomy at the toes, snug at the heel. Whole sizes only; if you’re between sizes, go up.

  1. Rounded and roomy up front, so your toes spread out on any surface instead of squeezing to a point.

  2. A flexible, breathable knit that moves with your foot. Not waterproof, so let it dry after wet walks.

  3. A full lace-up lets you snug the fit for uneven ground.

  4. Soft foam cushions every step on roots, gravel and packed dirt.

  5. Rubber lugs dig into loose and soft ground, and the outsole is certified slip-resistant.

  6. A padded collar holds your heel in place, with a pull tab to get them on fast.

Shaped like a foot. Not a point.

Most sneakers taper to a point right where your toes are widest. Tallgrass is shaped like a foot instead: wide and rounded at the front, so your toes can spread and grip on uneven ground, and snug at the heel so your foot stays put.

of people in the studies reviewed were wearing shoes that didn't fit the width or length of their feet.

Questions

Good to know.

Still wondering about something? Our team answers every message.

Still deciding?Tell us about your feet and your day, and we'll point you to the right pair.Message us
Is Tallgrass waterproof?

No. The knit upper is breathable, not waterproof. The deep lugs and certified slip-resistant outsole handle wet paths; if your feet get wet, let the shoes air dry away from direct heat.

Is it a hiking boot?

No. It's an outdoor walking sneaker for park trails, gravel, grass and dirt paths. For steep, rocky or multi-day hikes, choose a dedicated hiking boot.

Will it fit my wide feet?

The toe box is wide and rounded, and the heel stays snug. Order by your foot length using the size finder above. If you're between sizes, go up. Size exchanges are free.

Does it run true to size?

Pick by foot length, not by the size you usually buy. Measure from heel to longest toe and choose the size whose insole is the same or slightly longer. Whole sizes only.

Is it slip-resistant?

Yes. The outsole is certified slip-resistant, with deep rubber lugs that dig into loose and wet ground.

Can I wear it around town?

Yes. It looks like a regular sneaker, so it works at the coffee shop after the trail.

Is it for women or men?

Both. Tallgrass is unisex, and every size option shows the US women's and men's size.

How do I clean it?

Knock off dried mud, then spot clean with mild soap, cool water and a soft brush. Let it air dry. Don't put it in the washer or dryer.
