Karrimor Mount Walking Boots - Black - UK 9

While the Karrimor Mount Mid boots are waterproof, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold winter conditions. They are best suited for mild to moderate temperatures. For very cold weather, additional insulated footwear would be recommended.

To clean, first brush off any loose dirt and mud. Then, wipe the boots with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a specialized footwear cleaner. Always air dry naturally away from direct heat.

Yes, while the internal Weathertite membrane is durable, the outer fabric's water repellency can be restored. After cleaning, apply a suitable re-proofing spray or treatment designed for waterproof/breathable footwear to the exterior.

For optimal comfort and to maximize the boot's breathability, it is highly recommended to wear moisture-wicking hiking socks. These socks help keep your feet dry and prevent blisters.

Dynagrip is Karrimor's proprietary outsole technology. It refers to the design and compound of the boot's sole, engineered to provide enhanced traction, grip, and durability across a variety of terrains.

Weathertite is Karrimor's brand for its waterproof and breathable membrane technology. It's a layer within the boot designed to prevent external water from entering while allowing internal moisture (perspiration) to escape, keeping your feet dry and comfortable.

Check if water entered from above (e.g., over the top of the boot in deep puddles). Consider using gaiters in very wet conditions. Ensure the boots have been cleaned and re-proofed if the outer material is soaking through, as this can impede breathability.

Inspect the Dynagrip outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the sole thoroughly. Ensure you are choosing appropriate terrain for the boot's design; extreme ice or very slick rock may require specialized footwear.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Check that the boots are laced correctly – snug but not too tight. Make sure the boots are fully broken in. If discomfort persists, reassess sizing or fit.

Ensure they are drying in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat. Remove insoles if possible to speed up drying. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture.
