Are these boots fully waterproof?

Can I use these boots for winter hiking?

These boots are suitable for moderate conditions. However, for extreme winter conditions, consider boots specifically designed for snow and ice.

What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

Wear moisture-wicking socks to keep your feet dry and comfortable. Consider the thickness of your socks when adjusting the lacing.

How long will the waterproof membrane last?

The lifespan of the waterproof membrane depends on usage and care. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help extend its effectiveness.

Can I use waterproof spray on these boots?

Yes, using a waterproof spray can enhance the water resistance of the boots.

What is the return policy?

Please consult the retailer's return policy for details.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing system to find the correct fit. Consider wearing thinner socks or breaking in the boots with short walks.

Water is seeping into the boots.

Check the condition of the waterproof membrane. Ensure laces are tied properly. If the issue persists, consider using a waterproof spray.

Traction feels reduced.

Clean the outsole to remove mud and debris. Check the condition of the lugs for wear and tear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Sizing: Ensure you select the correct size. The boots are designed with a standard fit.
  2. Lacing: Use the classic lacing system to achieve a secure and comfortable fit.
  3. Break-In: Wear the boots for short periods initially to break them in and prevent blisters.
