FAQs

Are these boots true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard adult sizing, but it is recommended to wear the socks you intend to hike in when trying them on.

Can I put these boots in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the waterproof materials and the adhesive used in the construction. Clean them by hand with a soft cloth.

Are they suitable for winter hiking?

They are designed for general hiking and wet conditions; however, they are not insulated, so they may not be warm enough for extreme sub-zero temperatures.

What does the non-marking outsole mean?

It means the rubber compound is designed not to leave black streaks or scuffs on indoor floors like gym tiles or residential wood surfaces.

How should I store them?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out and cracking.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel slippery on wet surfaces

Check the tread for packed mud or debris and clean the outsoles with a stiff brush to restore the Omni-Grip traction.

Water penetrating the upper material

The waterproof coating may have worn off; apply a manufacturer-approved DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the exterior leather and textile.

Internal odors

Remove the insoles and wash them separately, and allow the boots to air out in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your boots, begin by ensuring a proper fit with your chosen hiking socks. If the boots feel stiff upon arrival, wear them for short walks around the house to allow the leather to soften. To care for the footwear, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after muddy excursions to prevent debris from damaging the mesh and leather. Avoid using harsh detergents, as these can strip away the factory waterproof coatings. Air dry the boots naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, which can crack the leather or warp the structural integrity of the midsole.
