Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, begin by wearing them for short walks on flat ground to let the material adapt to your foot shape before tackling steep hikes. These shoes are compatible with standard hiking socks; avoid cotton, as it retains moisture. To clean, remove excess dirt after each hike using a soft brush. If the interior gets wet, remove the insole and allow the shoe to air dry naturally in a shaded area. Never machine wash or place these in a tumble dryer, as heat can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane and adhesive bonds.
