Karrimor Mount Walking Boots - Grey - 5

Yes, the Karrimor Mount Walking Boots feature 'Weathertite' technology, which provides a waterproof and breathable barrier to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

For the suede split leather upper, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, gently wipe with a damp cloth or use a suede-specific cleaner. Avoid rubbing too vigorously and always let them air dry naturally.

For optimal comfort and moisture management, we recommend wearing moisture-wicking hiking socks made from synthetic materials or merino wool. Avoid cotton socks, as they can retain moisture and lead to discomfort.

The Frameflex 3D chassis is an internal support system designed to provide enhanced stability and underfoot protection on uneven and rugged terrains, contributing to overall comfort during long walks.

The Dynagrip sole unit is Karrimor's proprietary outsole technology engineered to deliver excellent traction and grip across a wide variety of surfaces, from muddy trails to rocky paths.

While the `Weathertite` membrane offers waterproofing suitable for damp and snowy conditions, these boots are not insulated for extreme cold. The `Dynagrip` sole provides good traction, but for icy conditions, additional traction aids might be necessary.

First, check if water is entering from the top (e.g., over the cuff). Ensure your waterproofing treatment is up-to-date. Also, confirm you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks, as cotton socks can retain sweat and make your feet feel damp even if the boots are waterproof.

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Properly adjust the `over lace system` for a secure but not overly tight fit. Always wear good quality hiking socks. If new, allow for a break-in period by wearing them on shorter walks before attempting longer treks. Inspect for any debris inside.

Check the `Dynagrip sole unit` for excessive wear or accumulation of mud/debris. Clean the sole thoroughly to restore traction. Re-evaluate the terrain; while the Dynagrip sole offers excellent traction, extreme conditions (e.g., highly polished wet rock, deep ice) may require specialized footwear or equipment.
