FAQs
How do I clean the boots?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain the leather's quality.
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather offers some water resistance, these boots are not fully waterproof. Treat with a water repellent for added protection.
What kind of socks should I wear?
Wear hiking socks, which are designed to wick away moisture and provide cushioning. Wool or synthetic blends are good choices.
How long will the boots last?
With proper care and maintenance, these boots can last for several years of regular use.
What is the NosiLife collar?
The NosiLife collar is designed to repel insects, providing added protection while hiking.
What is the benefit of the BLOOM technology?
BLOOM technology uses algae-based foam to create a more sustainable and environmentally friendly midsole.
How do I replace the laces?
The boots come with spare laces. Simply remove the old laces and thread the new ones through the ghillie system.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel tight or uncomfortable.
Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. Allow time for the leather to break in. Consider thicker or thinner socks to adjust the fit.
Boots are slipping on trails.
Ensure the laces are correctly tied and tightened. Check the outsole for excessive wear and tear.
Leather is cracking or drying out.
Apply leather conditioner regularly to keep the leather moisturized and prevent cracking. Avoid storing the boots in direct sunlight or extreme heat.
Odour persists despite cleaning.
Remove the insoles and air the boots out after each use. Consider using a boot deodorizer spray.
