Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes come ready to wear. Ensure the laces are comfortably tied for a secure fit before your first hike. Adjust the lacing as needed to accommodate your foot shape and preference.
Compatibility: Designed for adult male feet, these shoes are best suited for hiking and walking activities. They are compatible with standard hiking socks.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For tougher stains or a deeper clean, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes 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 adhesives.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: The Gore-Tex membrane requires minimal maintenance. Ensure the shoe's exterior is kept clean to maintain breathability. Avoid applying silicone-based waterproofing sprays, which can clog the Gore-Tex membrane's pores.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use, away from direct sunlight.
