FAQs
Are these boots suitable for winter hiking?
While they offer waterproof protection and good grip, they are primarily designed for summer trails and moderate conditions. For deep snow or icy conditions, winter-specific boots with better insulation and traction would be more appropriate.
Can the Scarpa Cyrus 2 Mid GTX be resoled?
Yes, the bonded-strobel hybrid construction is designed to allow the boots to be resoled, which extends their lifespan.
What is the main difference between the low-cut and mid-cut versions?
The mid-cut version, like the Cyrus 2 Mid GTX, offers enhanced ankle support and protection compared to its low-cut sibling, making it more suitable for uneven terrain while maintaining a comfortable fit.
How do I clean the Nubuck leather?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used. Ensure the cleaner is compatible with Nubuck and Gore-Tex. Always allow to air dry naturally.
What does 'PFAS-free GORE-TEX EPE' mean?
It signifies that the waterproofing membrane is made without per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), aligning with environmental sustainability efforts, while still providing effective water resistance.
What kind of activities are these boots best suited for?
They are ideal for light hikes, countryside walks, daily wear, and adventure travel where comfort and reliable traction are needed on mixed terrain.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable on first wear.
The boots are designed with a relaxed fit, but some break-in period may be required. Wear them for shorter walks initially to allow them to mold to your feet. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly without being too tight.
Feet feel wet despite the Gore-Tex membrane.
Check that the boot's tongue is properly positioned to prevent water ingress. Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane itself has not been compromised. If water has entered from the top, ensure socks are also suitable for wet conditions. Allow boots to dry completely and check for any tears or damage.
Traction seems poor on slippery surfaces.
The SCARPA Presa outsole is designed for versatility. Ensure the lugs are clear of mud or debris. For extremely slick surfaces like wet polished rock or ice, caution is always advised, as no outsole can guarantee grip in all conditions.
Leather uppers look dry or scuffed.
Condition the Nubuck leather with a product specifically designed for it and that is compatible with Gore-Tex. For scuffs, a nubuck eraser can help lift minor marks.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent waterproof protection with an eco-conscious membrane.
- Comfortable, relaxed fit suitable for long days on foot.
- Good ankle support balancing shoe-like comfort with boot-like stability.
- Durable construction with the potential for resoling.
- Versatile traction for various light hiking and walking conditions.
Cons
- May not provide sufficient support for very technical or strenuous mountaineering.
- Nubuck leather requires specific care to maintain its condition and water resistance.
- Weight (460g per half pair size 42) might be noticeable for fast-paced activities.
- Primarily designed for lighter trails, not extreme off-trail environments.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct UK size for a comfortable fit. The laces can be adjusted for a secure feel.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. Ideal for light hikes, daily walks, and year-round travel. They pair well with standard hiking socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For more stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth and a mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Waterproofing: The GORE-TEX membrane provides inherent waterproofing. After cleaning, allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Occasionally, conditioning the Nubuck leather with a suitable product can help maintain its suppleness and water resistance, but ensure it is compatible with Gore-Tex membranes.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Do not store in plastic bags, as this can trap moisture.
