Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable or cause blisters
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Wear with appropriate hiking socks. Gradually increase wear time to allow the shoes to break in.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
The Traxion outsole provides good grip, but extreme wetness can reduce effectiveness. Clean the outsole treads to remove mud or debris. Consider terrain limitations for these shoes.
Materials appear worn quickly
Regular cleaning and proper drying can extend the life of the materials. Avoid using the shoes for activities beyond their intended purpose (e.g., extreme off-trail scrambling).
