Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first trek, ensure the toggle lace is adjusted to your preferred tension while wearing your preferred hiking socks to account for fit. For cleaning, remove surface debris 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 tumble drying, as high heat can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane and adhesive bonds. To maintain the waterproof efficacy, allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to become brittle.
