Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Tor Summit FLD shoes, it is important to perform proper care, especially given the suede components.
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them around the house for a few hours before tackling long treks to allow the upper materials to contour to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried dirt from the suede and canvas. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture and adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the foam midsole from degrading and to keep the suede from fading.
- Weather Protection: Consider applying a suede-safe water repellent spray if you plan on hiking in damp conditions to help maintain the material's integrity.
