Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied securely to achieve a snug and comfortable fit, adjusting the tightness as needed for your activity. The gusseted tongue should be positioned correctly to maximize debris protection and comfort.
Compatibility:
Designed for adult male feet, these shoes are compatible with standard hiking socks. They are suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities, from light trails to everyday use in damp conditions.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and affect the waterproof membrane. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While RAIN.RDY is durable, periodic treatment with a waterproofing spray suitable for performance footwear can help maintain water repellency over time, especially after extensive use and cleaning.
