FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy snowfall?
Yes, the COLD.RDY technology is designed for cold-weather adventures, offering insulation and water repellency, making them suitable for light to moderate snowfall.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse and air dry. Follow up with a leather conditioner.
What is the main advantage of the COLD.RDY technology?
COLD.RDY provides insulation to keep your feet warm and is water-repellent, protecting them from moisture in cold conditions.
Can I wear these shoes in the summer?
These shoes are specifically designed for cold weather. While they offer breathability, they may be too warm for summer use.
What does 'Buy 1 Size Bigger' mean in the description?
It means that for optimal comfort, especially when wearing thicker socks common in cold weather, you may need to order a size larger than your typical shoe size.
Do these shoes have good grip on icy surfaces?
While designed for cold weather, the grip performance on very icy surfaces can vary. For extreme ice, consider using additional traction devices.
What is the warranty period for these shoes?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please refer to the point of purchase for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight, especially with thicker socks
It is recommended to purchase one size larger than your standard fit to accommodate colder weather socks and ensure comfort.
Reduced water repellency over time
Clean the shoes thoroughly and reapply a quality water-repellent spray designed for leather and textile footwear.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner to moisturize the material. Ensure the shoes are clean before conditioning.
Mesh lining feels less breathable
Ensure the lining is clean and free from debris. Hand wash with mild soap and water if necessary, and allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no specific setup beyond lacing them up. Ensure the laces are tied securely but comfortably to provide adequate support without restricting circulation.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these shoes are best suited for cold-weather hiking and general wear in cooler climates. They are compatible with standard hiking socks. Consider wool or thermal socks for maximum warmth.
Care: To maintain the leather and water-repellent properties:
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and mud with a damp cloth or a soft brush. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as they can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking, especially after cleaning.
- Water Repellency: Reapply a suitable water-repellent spray as needed, particularly after significant use or cleaning, to maintain their protective qualities.
