Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These hiking shoes require no assembly. Simply lace them up to your preferred tightness.
Compatibility: Designed for adult male foot sizes. The standard fit aims to accommodate a wide range of foot shapes. Compatibility with specific orthotics is not specified, but the removable sockliner might allow for some adjustments.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: After use, brush off loose dirt. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush or cloth dampened with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents.
- Cleaning the GORE-TEX Membrane: The membrane itself requires minimal care. Ensure the shoe is clean externally to prevent clogging of its pores.
- Drying: Air dry shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or fires. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While the GORE-TEX is inherently waterproof, applying a suitable footwear waterproofing spray periodically can help maintain the outer fabric's water repellency.
