FAQs

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Dura Pro features a standard fit with a secure ghillie lacing system that allows for some width adjustment, though they are generally considered true to standard width.

Do I need to spray these with a waterproof treatment?

They come with built-in waterproof technology, but you can apply a suede-safe water-repellent spray if you notice water no longer beading on the surface after extensive use.

What is the NosiLife technology?

NosiLife is a permanent fabric treatment integrated into the boot material that serves as an insect repellent against biting insects.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the EVA insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required.

Are these boots suitable for winter hiking?

These boots are water-resistant and suitable for autumn and spring, but they lack specific thermal insulation for deep snow or extreme winter conditions.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff upon first use

Wear them indoors for short periods to allow the EVA midsole and upper materials to break in.

Interior feels damp after hiking

Ensure you are using moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks and allow the boots to dry fully in a ventilated area between uses.

Laces coming undone

Use a double knot or ensure the ghillie lacing system is pulled evenly through each eyelet to distribute tension correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated NosiLife technology for insect protection
  • Reliable waterproof performance
  • EVA cushioning provides excellent comfort for long hikes
  • Secure fit provided by ghillie lacing and moulded heel

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful maintenance and cleaning
  • Mid-cut design may feel restrictive to some hikers
  • Not intended for extreme high-alpine mountaineering

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.
