FAQs
Are these boots suitable for winter hiking?
The GORE-TEX® waterproofing provides protection against wet conditions, but these boots are not insulated for extreme cold. They are best suited for 3-season use (spring, summer, fall) or mild winter conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
We recommend measuring your foot length and width and comparing it to the sizing chart provided. Trying them on with the type of socks you plan to wear is ideal.
Can I wear these boots for running?
While they offer good grip and support, these are hiking boots designed for walking and trail use. They are not optimized for the repetitive impact of running.
What is the main benefit of the GORE-TEX® material?
GORE-TEX® provides a waterproof barrier to keep your feet dry from external moisture while allowing perspiration vapor to escape, ensuring breathability and comfort.
How long will the waterproofing last?
The GORE-TEX® membrane is designed for durability. Proper care and maintenance, including regular cleaning and occasional reapplication of waterproofing treatments, will help extend its lifespan.
Can these boots be resoled?
Typically, hiking boots like these are not designed for resoling. It is generally more practical to replace the boots once the sole is significantly worn.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite waterproofing.
Ensure the boot laces are tied securely to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any visible damage to the GORE-TEX® material or seams. If the issue persists, the waterproofing may be compromised.
Boots feel uncomfortable or cause blisters.
Verify you have the correct size and width. Break in the boots gradually on shorter walks before undertaking long hikes. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks.
Traction seems reduced on slippery surfaces.
Clean the rubber sole thoroughly to remove any mud or debris that might be reducing grip. If the sole appears worn, it may need replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility: Designed for women, these boots are suitable for various outdoor activities including hiking, walking, and general trail use. They pair well with standard hiking socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and waterproofing.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: The GORE-TEX® membrane is durable, but for extended longevity, consider using a specialized footwear waterproofing spray periodically, especially after deep cleaning.
