How do I know what size to order?
How do I know what size to order?
Size charts are available on each product page, below the product title. Sizing can vary between brands, so we recommend checking the chart before ordering.
If you're buying footwear, we'd recommend coming in-store where possible. Our team at Raffles City or Changi City Point can help you get the right fit, and for hiking shoes you can test them on our in-store ramp before deciding.
HIKING SHOES & FOOTWEAR
What type of hiking shoe do I need?
What type of hiking shoe do I need?
It depends on the terrain and how you plan to use them.
Low-cut hiking shoes are lighter and work well for day hikes on well-maintained trails like Bukit Timah or MacRitchie. Mid-cut boots offer more ankle support for longer hikes or uneven terrain. If you're hiking overseas on technical or mountainous terrain, look for something more structured with a stiffer outsole.
Not sure? Visit us at Liv Activ Raffles City (#02-05) to try our hiking shoes on our in-store ramp. No appointment needed.
What is the hiking ramp at Liv Activ?
What is the hiking ramp at Liv Activ?
We have a purpose-built incline platform at our Raffles City store that lets you test hiking shoes under more realistic conditions before you buy.
On the ramp, you can assess grip on an incline, check that your toes aren't jamming on the descent, and feel how secure your heel lockdown is. These are things you simply won't pick up walking on flat retail flooring.
It's free to use. Just drop by and our team will guide you through it.
Do I need waterproof hiking shoes?
Do I need waterproof hiking shoes?
Not always. In Singapore's humidity, waterproof shoes can feel warmer and take longer to dry if wet on the inside.
For local trails, a breathable, non-waterproof shoe often works better day-to-day. Waterproof options are worth considering if you're hiking overseas in wet or cold conditions, or if you're regularly on muddy terrain.
Our team can help you decide based on where you're planning to hike.
How do I make sure hiking shoes fit correctly?
How do I make sure hiking shoes fit correctly?
Fit is especially important for hiking shoes since poor fit causes blisters and toe injuries on descents.
Your toes should have enough room to splay naturally without hitting the front of the shoe. Your heel should feel locked in with minimal lift. Always try both shoes on with hiking socks, and walk (or use our ramp) before committing.
Sizing can vary between brands, so don't assume your usual size will apply across the range.
How long do hiking shoes last?
How long do hiking shoes last?
Most hiking shoes last between 500 and 1,000km depending on terrain, frequency of use, and how well they're maintained. Midsole cushioning typically breaks down before the outsole shows visible wear.
If you start noticing reduced grip, less stability, or general discomfort on familiar trails, it's usually a sign they're due for replacement.
Can I use hiking shoes for everyday wear?
Can I use hiking shoes for everyday wear?
Many of our hiking shoes, particularly lifestyle-oriented styles from KEEN and HOKA, work well for everyday use. Trail-specific technical shoes are less suited for daily wear as they're built for performance, not casual comfort.
Check the product description or ask our in-store team if you're looking for something versatile.
JACKETS & OUTERWEAR
What type of jacket do I need for outdoor activities?
What type of jacket do I need for outdoor activities?
It depends on the conditions you're dressing for.
A lightweight windbreaker is ideal for Singapore's unpredictable rain and wind. An insulated jacket suits cooler destinations or high-altitude hikes overseas. A waterproof hardshell is the go-to for sustained rain and exposed terrain. Many hikers layer with a base layer, mid layer, and outer shell for versatility across changing conditions.
Not sure what you need? Our team at Raffles City or Changi City Point can help you figure out the right setup.
What's the difference between waterproof and water-resistant?
What's the difference between waterproof and water-resistant?
Waterproof jackets use sealed seams and membranes like Gore-Tex to block sustained rain. Water-resistant jackets have a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating that handles light rain and brief showers but will eventually wet out.
For Singapore's heavy downpours or overseas hiking in wet conditions, a waterproof jacket is the more reliable choice. For light activity and everyday use, water-resistant is usually sufficient.
How do I care for my waterproof jacket?
How do I care for my waterproof jacket?
Wash regularly with a technical fabric cleaner, as regular detergent can clog the DWR coating and reduce water repellency over time.
Tumble dry on low heat or iron on a low setting after washing to reactivate the DWR. If water starts beading less effectively, a DWR re-treatment spray can help restore performance.
Always follow the care label on your specific jacket.
Do your jackets come in packable styles?
Do your jackets come in packable styles?
Yes, several styles in our range pack down into their own pocket or a stuff sack for easy travel. These are particularly popular for hiking trips where pack weight and space matter.
Look out for the packable tag on product pages, or ask our team for recommendations.
