FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a 100% recycled 3-layer GORE-TEX waterproof liner designed to keep feet dry.
Can I use these for winter hiking?
While they offer great protection and waterproofing, they are primarily designed for technical alpine hiking and are not insulated for sub-zero winter temperatures.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush and a damp cloth to gently remove dirt. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that might damage the anti-abrasion mesh.
What kind of terrain are these best for?
They are specifically engineered for rugged, challenging, and technical mountain trails.
Do I need to size up for hiking socks?
It is generally recommended to account for the thickness of hiking socks when choosing your size to ensure adequate toe room.
Troubleshooting
Water entering the shoe during heavy rain
Ensure that your pants/trousers are worn over the cuff to prevent water running down the ankle and into the shoe opening.
Comfort or pressure points during the first use
The Verto Alpine is a high-performance shoe that requires a short break-in period; try wearing them on short walks before attempting longer treks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Verto Alpine shoes, keep them clean by removing mud and debris after each hike using a soft brush and lukewarm water. Do not submerge them in heavy detergents or use a washing machine, as this can degrade the waterproof membrane. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. For optimal performance, ensure you wear moisture-wicking hiking socks that are compatible with the GORE-TEX lining, avoiding cotton socks which can trap moisture.
