Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first hike, ensure the boots are laced snugly to allow the materials to warm up and conform to your foot shape. For care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and the suede finish. Instead, wipe away surface mud with a damp cloth and a soft brush after each outing. If the boots become soaked, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources like radiators. Periodically check the outsole for debris lodged in the tread patterns to maintain optimal grip.
