Troubleshooting
Water leaking into the boot

Boots feel slippery on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsoles are clear of packed mud and debris; the Omni-Grip pattern works best when clear of obstruction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your boots, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for short walks to allow the leather to mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe away mud and debris using a damp cloth after every hike. Do not submerge the boots in water.
- Leather Care: Use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to prevent the upper from drying or cracking.
- Drying: Always air-dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials and damage the waterproof adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
