Troubleshooting
Discomfort during first wear
This is common with new hiking shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for your foot.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
The outsole is optimized for trails. On very wet or slick surfaces (like smooth rocks or mud), caution is advised. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that might hinder grip.
Slightly tight fit
Check lacing; loosen it around the midfoot and re-tighten. If persistent, consider if the size is appropriate or if a different lacing technique might help.
