Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Onyx shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them on short walks before heading out on long hikes to allow the leather and moulding to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after every hike. If the leather becomes muddy, use a damp cloth to wipe it clean and allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can crack the leather.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While the ISOTEX membrane is internal, the leather exterior should be treated periodically with a leather conditioner or water-repellent spray to maintain its water-resistance and suppleness.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
