Troubleshooting
Feet feel damp despite GORE-TEX
Ensure laces are properly tightened to prevent water ingress. Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane. Allow shoes to fully dry and consider reapplying DWR treatment.
Traction is reduced on slippery surfaces
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove mud or debris that may be clogging the tread. Ensure the surface itself is not excessively smooth or coated.
Lacing system feels loose or stiff
Adjust the lock mechanism on the laces. Ensure the laces are clean and free from obstructions. If stiffness persists, check for damage to the lace loops.
Discomfort during initial wear
Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure the correct size is being worn and laces are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit.
