Product Information
Full details
The Geox Himalaya ABX boots are designed for active kids who need reliable footwear that balances warmth, breathability, and protection during harsh winter weather. These mid-calf boots utilize Geox's signature Amphibiox technology to shield feet from moisture while allowing for excellent airflow, making them an ideal choice for everyday outdoor play in cold conditions. One caveat to keep in mind is that while they are highly protective, regular cleaning of the polyester exterior is necessary to maintain their water-resistant performance over time.

FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature Amphibiox technology which is designed to be fully waterproof while maintaining breathability.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which allows you to clean them or replace them with custom orthotics if necessary.
Are these suitable for deep snow?
These are mid-calf boots intended for general cold-weather use. While they provide great protection against slush and cold, they are not specialized deep-powder snow boots.
How do I know the right size for my child?
Geox generally follows standard UK sizing. We recommend measuring the child's foot with socks on and comparing it to a standard sizing chart, ensuring there is a little room for growth and movement.
Can I machine wash these boots?
It is not recommended to machine wash these boots, as the agitation and heat can damage the waterproof membrane and the structural integrity of the shoe. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
Troubleshooting
Velcro is losing its grip over time
Use a small brush or tweezers to remove lint, hair, or debris that may have collected in the hook-and-loop fasteners to restore the bond.
Boots feel damp inside
Remove the insole to dry separately and ensure the boots are being stored in a ventilated area; avoid drying them near high heat.
Soles are becoming slippery
Check the tread for embedded stones or packed mud and clean them out to restore the rubber's natural grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Geox Himalaya ABX boots, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure your child wears their preferred winter socks when trying the boots on to get an accurate sense of the fit. The velcro straps should be adjusted snugly but not so tight that they restrict circulation.
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior polyester fabric with a soft, damp cloth after use in mud or snow. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.
- Drying: If the interior becomes wet, remove the insole and allow both the boot and insole to air dry naturally. Avoid placing them directly on high-heat sources like radiators or near a fireplace, as excessive heat can damage the specialized materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for long periods to preserve the color and material integrity.
