FAQs
What type of fastener does the Hotter Marlin use?
The Hotter Marlin features a touch-fastening strap, commonly known as Velcro, for easy and adjustable closure.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

How should I clean the leather upper?
Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner and always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
While the leather is durable, these shoes are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to slightly damp conditions and are not recommended for heavy rain or wet surfaces.
What is the sole made of?

What is the lining material?

Can I machine wash these shoes?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the touch-fastening strap for a more secure or relaxed fit. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider if the EXF fitting is suitable for your foot shape.
Leather shows signs of drying or cracking
Apply a suitable leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying. Ensure the shoes are not exposed to excessive heat.
Slight odor inside the shoe
