FAQs

What type of foot is the 'EXF' fitting best suited for?

The 'EXF' fitting is designed to accommodate a wider foot, offering extra comfort and space compared to standard fittings.

How do I clean the leather upper of the Marlin shoes?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a product specifically designed for leather, and always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?

While the leather can be treated for water resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid submerging them in water.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate), which provides lightweight cushioning and flexibility.

How do I adjust the fit of the shoe?

The shoes feature a touch-close fastening strap that allows you to easily adjust the tightness for a secure and customized fit.

Are these shoes suitable for formal occasions?

The Hotter Marlin shoes have a classic, versatile design that pairs well with smart-casual attire. They are generally not considered formal footwear.

What material is the lining made of?

The lining is made of a sporty neoprene material, chosen for its soft feel and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight despite correct size

Adjust the touch-fastening strap for a looser fit. The EXF fitting is designed for comfort, but if the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger or a different model.

Leather shows signs of drying or cracking

Apply a quality leather conditioner. Ensure the shoes are not exposed to excessive heat or prolonged dryness. Follow regular care instructions for conditioning.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure the touch-fastening strap is correctly adjusted. The sporty neoprene lining is designed for comfort, but if discomfort persists, it might indicate the fitting is not ideal for your foot shape. Allow for a break-in period.

Dirt accumulation on cut-out details

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the cut-out areas. Ensure they are dry afterwards to prevent any material damage.
