How do I attach gaiters?
The shoes feature a D-Ring specifically for quick and easy gaiter compatibility. Simply attach your gaiters to this ring.
Troubleshooting
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.
Ensure the Vibram Mega-Grip outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. The grip is optimized for trail conditions; very slick surfaces may still pose a challenge.
Foot fatigue on very long runs.
While designed for long distances, ensure the shoe fit is correct and allows for foot swelling. Consider if the cushioning level is appropriate for your personal preference and running style.
Debris entering the shoe.
Utilize the D-Ring to attach compatible gaiters. Ensure laces are tied correctly to create a snug fit around the ankle collar.
Uneven wear on the outsole.
Check for any unusual running gait issues. The Vibram outsole is durable, but uneven wear could indicate external factors. Consult a running specialist if concerned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. For optimal gaiter compatibility, ensure your chosen gaiters have a compatible attachment mechanism for the D-Ring. Ensure laces are tied securely but not overly tight to allow for natural foot swelling during long runs.
Compatibility: Designed for neutral runners. Compatible with most standard trail running gaiters via the integrated D-Ring.
Care: To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and mud from the upper and outsole. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and affect performance. Allow shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Periodically check the outsole for any embedded debris and clean as needed. Inspect the mesh for any tears or damage.
