Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or loose
Adjust the side strap for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size; consult the size guide if unsure.
Water seeping into boots
Inspect the boots for any punctures or tears. Clean the waterproof gusset and ensure it is properly fastened. For minor leaks, consider a rubber repair kit.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the boots are broken in properly. Wear thick socks and adjust the strap to optimize the fit. If discomfort persists, consider the fit or break-in period.
