FAQs
Are these boots suitable for winter hiking?
The Samaris II boots offer good waterproofing and traction, making them suitable for wet and moderately cold conditions. For deep snow or extreme cold, consider boots with enhanced insulation.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Regatta. It is recommended to measure your foot and try the boots on, ideally at the end of the day when feet are slightly swollen, wearing the type of socks you plan to use.
Can I machine wash these boots?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and waterproof membrane.
What is the main advantage of the XLT sole unit?
The XLT sole unit is designed for enhanced traction on various terrains and features a self-cleaning profile to prevent mud buildup, ensuring consistent grip.
How long does the waterproofing last?
The Isotex waterproof membrane is durable, but its effectiveness can be prolonged by proper care and periodic reapplication of waterproofing treatments to the outer materials.
Are these boots heavy?
The Samaris II boots are designed to be lightweight hiking boots, balancing durability with comfort for extended wear.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp after use
Ensure the waterproof membrane is intact. Check that laces are tied correctly to prevent water ingress. Allow boots to dry thoroughly after each use and consider reapplying waterproofing treatment.
Traction feels reduced on slippery surfaces
Clean the XLT sole unit to remove mud or debris that may be clogging the tread. Ensure the boots are not excessively worn. Consider the conditions; extreme ice may require additional footwear accessories.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Try adjusting the lacing to find a more secure yet comfortable fit. If the issue persists, the boots may not be the correct fit for your foot shape; consider trying a different size or model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots require no complex setup; they are ready for use straight out of the box. They are compatible with standard hiking socks. To ensure their longevity and performance:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- 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 adhesives.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically treat the upper with a suitable waterproofing spray or wax designed for outdoor footwear to maintain the water-repellent properties of the mesh and PU.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
