FAQs
Are these boots suitable for snow?
Yes, they provide good support and traction for winter walking, though they are primarily designed as hiking boots rather than insulated heavy-duty winter boots.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and adhesives. Clean them by hand with a soft brush and mild soap.
Are they true to size?
They generally fit true to size, but if you plan on wearing thick wool hiking socks, consider trying them on with those socks to ensure you have enough room.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from a combination of durable leather and breathable mesh textile.
Is the outsole non-marking?
Yes, the boots feature Omni-Grip non-marking traction rubber, making them safe for indoor surfaces if needed.
Troubleshooting
Water leakage after extended use
Clean the exterior to remove dirt that may trap moisture and consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to refresh the surface.
Slipping during use
Check if the laces or hook and loop system have loosened, and ensure the tread is free of packed mud or debris.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the hook and loop closure is pulled snugly to secure your heel in place without cutting off circulation. Before your first use, consider wearing the boots indoors for a few hours to allow the materials to adapt to your foot. For care, keep the leather components clean by wiping away mud with a damp cloth after each hike. If the mesh becomes soaked, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the waterproofing adhesives and leather integrity over time.
