How to use

To use these boots, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking hiking socks to maximize the benefits of the GORE-TEX lining. Loosen the laces fully before inserting your foot, then tighten them securely starting from the bottom to ensure a snug fit around the midfoot and ankle. After each use, remove any dirt or debris from the outsole and leather upper to maintain traction and material longevity. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the materials.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the size 45.5 provides adequate room for your feet while wearing hiking socks.
• Assess the terrain you intend to cover to ensure these boots meet your stability requirements.
• Consider the intended season of use, as these are designed for general trekking rather than extreme winter environments.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and longevity, clean the boots regularly with a soft brush and water, and apply appropriate leather care products to maintain the water-repellent properties of the upper.
