The Aequilibrium ST GTX are technical hiking shoes designed for challenging terrains. While comfortable, their specialized features might be more than needed for casual, everyday wear.
Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to clean the exterior. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
Yes, the shoes are suitable for winter trekking and glacier crossings, and their midsole is compatible with semi-automatic crampons for icy ascents.
The Double Heell™ construction enhances stability and reduces muscle fatigue by improving braking on descents and providing a smoother heel-to-toe roll during walking.
Periodically apply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for GORE-TEX footwear to maintain its water-repellent properties.
The shoes feature a 3D Flex System Evo™ with a contoured ankle and TPU reinforcements for excellent foothold control, good ankle mobility, and reliable support.
Like most technical hiking footwear, a break-in period is recommended to allow the shoes to mold to your feet and achieve maximum comfort.
Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane is intact. Check for any damage to the shoe's exterior or seams. Reapply waterproofing treatment. Ensure laces are tight and the tongue is properly seated.
Clean the outsole thoroughly from mud and debris. Examine the tread for significant wear. If worn, consider replacement.
Re-lace the shoes, ensuring a secure fit around the ankle. Check if the footbed is correctly positioned. Consider using thicker socks.
Ensure proper sizing and fit. Break in the shoes on shorter walks before extended use. Check for any internal stitching or seams causing irritation.
Initial Fit: Ensure a snug but comfortable fit. The ergonomic design should wrap your foot securely. Adjust laces using the lacing system for optimal support, paying attention to the gaiter.
Compatibility: The midsole is compatible with semi-automatic crampons. Ensure your crampons are designed for this type of boot.
