Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Speedgoat 7s last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: After muddy hikes, remove excess dirt with a soft brush and rinse with lukewarm water. Do not submerge the shoes if possible.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place these shoes near a direct heat source, like a heater or fireplace, as high heat can damage the membrane and glues.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
- Compatibility: These shoes work well with standard hiking socks; for maximum performance in cold weather, use moisture-wicking wool-blend socks to complement the breathable GORE-TEX membrane.
