Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. The primary setup involves adjusting the unique lacing system to your preferred tightness. Once set, the toggle allows for quick on-and-off. The shoes are designed for direct use without any additional accessories.
Compatibility: These shoes are ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities including hiking, trail running, and general outdoor exploration. They are compatible with standard hiking socks. They are designed for male adults. The UK size 14 (EU 49.5) offers a specific fit.
Care: To maintain the GORE-TEX membrane and overall condition:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials and GORE-TEX membrane.
- Waterproofing: Periodically, you may wish to reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish suitable for performance footwear to maintain the water-repellent properties of the upper. Follow the product instructions for the DWR treatment.
