Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear hiking shoes. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for a comfortable and secure fit before your first use. It is recommended to break them in on shorter walks before embarking on long hikes.
Compatibility: Designed for adult use, suitable for various outdoor activities like hiking, walking, and general trail use. They are compatible with most types of hiking socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking, especially after cleaning or exposure to dry conditions.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
