How should I clean the ReBOTL™ fabric upper?
To clean the ReBOTL™ fabric, first brush off any loose dirt. Then, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap or a specialized fabric cleaner to gently wipe down soiled areas. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is ReBOTL™ fabric?

Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or blisters after wearing
Ensure boots are properly laced, not too tight or too loose. Check your sock choice; moisture-wicking hiking socks are recommended. Consider if a break-in period is needed or if aftermarket insoles could provide better arch support for your foot type.
Boots feel slippery on wet or loose surfaces
The TimberGrip™ outsole is designed for traction, but performance can vary with extreme conditions. Ensure the outsoles are clean of mud or debris. Inspect the tread for excessive wear, which can reduce grip. Adjust your gait to take shorter, more deliberate steps on challenging terrain.
Feet feel wet despite the waterproof fabric
Confirm the waterproof fabric is not compromised by cuts or abrasions. Ensure water isn't entering from the top (e.g., over the collar in deep puddles). Sweat buildup can also cause dampness; wear moisture-wicking socks to manage internal moisture.
Unpleasant odor developing inside boots
Air out your boots thoroughly after each use. Remove insoles to allow them and the boot interior to dry completely. If odor persists, use odor-eliminating sprays or cedar shoe trees. Ensure your socks are clean and moisture-wicking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Lacing: Ensure the boots are laced securely but comfortably. Adjust the laces to provide a snug fit around your foot and ankle without creating pressure points. This 'lace-up closure' is essential for stability and support on uneven terrain.
Break-In Period: While often comfortable out of the box, it's advisable to wear your boots for shorter walks before embarking on longer hikes to ensure they conform to your foot shape.
Compatibility
Activities: Ideal for day hiking, light backpacking, general outdoor exploration, and casual wear. The versatile design pairs well with outdoor apparel and performance socks.
Terrain: Suited for a variety of surfaces including dirt trails, gravel paths, and light rocky terrain.
Care
Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt and debris with a soft brush. For fabric, use a damp cloth with mild soap to clean soiled areas. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Waterproofing Maintenance: While the fabric upper is waterproof, regular care can help maintain its effectiveness. Consider applying a fabric-specific waterproofing treatment periodically, especially after cleaning, following the product manufacturer's instructions.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight when not in use.
