Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first long hike, it is recommended to wear these shoes on shorter walks to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks to optimize the fit and moisture-wicking capabilities of the interior. To care for your Holcombe III shoes, remove dried mud with a soft brush after each outing. If the shoes become heavily soiled, hand wash them with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the waterproof Isotex membrane and the integrity of the adhesive bonding. Always allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
