FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a waterproof membrane designed to lock out moisture while maintaining breathability.
Can I use these for winter hiking?
They are designed as all-season boots and perform well in a variety of conditions, though they are not specifically insulated for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
How should I clean the suede material?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated suede cleaner and always air dry away from direct heat.
Do these boots provide enough ankle support?
Yes, as a mid-cut boot, they provide significantly more ankle support and protection than low-cut hiking shoes.
What is the weight of these boots?
The weight of the Accentor 3 Mid is approximately 800g.
Are the materials sustainable?
Yes, the model incorporates 100% recycled laces and mesh lining.
Troubleshooting
Water entering the boot during stream crossings
Ensure the bellows tongue is pulled up securely and laces are tightened correctly to prevent water from entering through the ankle opening.
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
This is common with new suede boots. Wear them around the house or on short walks for a few days to soften the materials.
Interior odor developing after heavy use
Remove the insoles to let the interior air out fully, and wipe the inside with a damp cloth; the antimicrobial treatment will function best when the boot is allowed to dry thoroughly between uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, it is best to wear medium-thickness hiking socks to achieve the ideal fit and moisture-wicking performance. Before your first long-distance hike, wear the boots for shorter local walks to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
For care:
- Remove heavy dirt with a soft brush after each use.
- If the boots become saturated, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, as excessive heat can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Clean the suede exterior using a specialized suede brush or cleaning product to maintain the texture and water-repellent finish.
- Ensure the boots are completely dry before storing them in a cool, well-ventilated area.
