Wear the boots for short periods, gradually increasing the duration of wear. Walk around the house and on easy trails to allow the boots to mold to your feet.
How often should I treat my boots with a water repellent?
Apply a water repellent treatment every few months, or more frequently if you frequently hike in wet conditions.
Can I use these boots for mountaineering?
These boots are designed for walking and hiking, not for technical mountaineering. For mountaineering, specialized boots are recommended.
What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

The warranty period is typically two years from the date of purchase. Please refer to your receipt and the manufacturer's warranty for specific details.
