Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best performance, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking hiking socks. To maintain the GORE-TEX membrane, regularly clean off mud and dirt using a soft brush and lukewarm water. Do not submerge or machine wash, as this can damage the waterproof lining. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can compromise the structural integrity of the rubber and adhesives. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew or material degradation.
