Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoes are a narrow fit, consider trying a different width or model if available. Wear them around the house for a short period to see if they break in.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While designed for traction, extremely slick surfaces can still pose a challenge. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris, which can affect grip.
Discomfort during long wear
Verify the lacing is adjusted correctly for a secure but not constricting fit. Ensure the socks worn are appropriate for hiking and provide adequate cushioning.
