Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no specific setup beyond adjusting the laces to your preferred fit. Ensure the laces are correctly threaded through the eyelets for optimal performance.
Compatibility: Designed for outdoor activities and varied terrain. Compatible with standard hiking socks. Not intended for formal wear or indoor athletic court sports.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth with cool water and mild soap to gently clean the exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials, especially the GORE-TEX membrane.
- GORE-TEX Maintenance: Periodically, you may need to refresh the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on the shoe's exterior to ensure optimal water-repellency. Follow product instructions for DWR treatment sprays or wipes. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
