Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, allow for a brief break-in period on shorter walks to let the leather adapt to your foot shape. Ensure you pair these boots with moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool hiking socks to maximize the effectiveness of the GORE-TEX lining.
Care Instructions:
- Remove loose dirt and mud using a soft-bristled brush after each outing.
- Clean the leather surface with a damp cloth; avoid harsh detergents.
- Allow the boots to air dry slowly in a shaded, well-ventilated area—never place them near direct heat sources like radiators or campfires.
- Apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to maintain the material's suppleness and prevent cracking.
