Is the GORE-TEX lining truly waterproof?

Yes. GORE-TEX is a waterproof, breathable membrane, so rain and splashes stay out while sweat vapor can escape. Water can still enter over the collar in deep puddles.

How does it compare with a hiking boot?

It is lower, lighter and more flexible, so it walks better on pavement. A boot gives more ankle support and a stiffer sole for rough, loaded hikes.

Can I wear it in summer?

It works, but the waterproof membrane traps heat. For hot, dry weather a breathable non-waterproof walking shoe will be cooler.

What kind of terrain is it made for?

Forest paths, gravel, wet sidewalks and uneven ground. The lugged rubber outsole grips loose surfaces; it is not a crampon-compatible mountaineering shoe.

Does it fit true to size?

Reebok women's shoes generally run true to size. If you wear thick hiking socks or have wide feet, consider trying a half size up.

One pair of shoes with the laces fitted. Nothing else is included.

Our take on the Reebok Ridgerider 6 GORE-TEX Womens Walking Shoes

The Reebok Ridgerider 6 GORE-TEX is a women's walking shoe built on a trail-runner pattern: ripstop and mesh upper, a GORE-TEX waterproof and breathable lining, a toe overlay, an EVA midsole and a rubber outsole with deep lugs. It is aimed at walkers who cover wet paths, forest trails and broken sidewalks and want dry feet and grip rather than a soft, plush ride. Against everyday walking shoes it trades cushioning and light weight for weather protection and traction; against technical hiking shoes it is lower and more flexible, with less ankle support and a less aggressive outsole. The lace closure and reinforced toe suit regular town-and-trail use.
