FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?
The Dolomite Croda Nera Tech is suitable for winter hiking, but consider the level of insulation required for extreme cold. Pair with appropriate winter socks for added warmth.
How do I clean the shoes?
Use a soft brush and lukewarm water to clean the shoes. Avoid using harsh chemicals or detergents, as they can damage the GORE-TEX membrane.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
Use moisture-wicking hiking socks. This will help manage moisture and keep your feet dry and comfortable.
What is the warranty on these shoes?
Warranty information can be found on the product's packaging or Dolomite's official website. Typically, it covers manufacturing defects.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
While the shoe provides good support, it is primarily designed for hiking. For trail running, a more lightweight and flexible trail running shoe may be more suitable.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. It is best to let them air out completely before storing.
Are the soles replaceable?
The soles are not designed to be user-replaceable. If the soles are excessively worn, it is time to replace the entire shoe.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking inside the shoe.
Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane or the seams. Apply a waterproof sealant if needed. Ensure socks aren't wicking moisture in.
Poor grip on wet surfaces.
Clean the outsole to remove any dirt or debris. Check the outsole for wear and tear; consider replacing the shoes if the tread is worn down.
Discomfort or blisters after long hikes.
Ensure the correct shoe size. Adjust lacing for a better fit. Use proper hiking socks to reduce friction.
