Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your HOKA Transport Hike shoes maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are wearing the appropriate hiking socks for your specific size UK 9 fit to optimize moisture-wicking and comfort.
- Lacing: Adjust the speed lace hooks for a snug midfoot lock without overtightening, which can cause pressure points.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the exterior with cold water and a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt. Avoid using harsh detergents as they can degrade the water-resistant coating.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, as high heat can damage the adhesives and synthetic materials.
- Maintenance: Periodically reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray once the water-resistant finish stops beading to ensure continued protection.
