Buying Tips
Try on both boots, standing up, with the socks worn for hiking.
Try several models and various sizes if necessary.
Check two comfort points: the heel seating (the heel does not or hardly slips) and the front of the foot on a downward slope (the toes do not touch the front of the boot).
Avoid all pressure points when trying shoes on.
Don't hesitate to walk around the store.
Break in your boots gradually during their first hikes to adapt them to your foot.
Care tips
Use a brush to clean the boot and remove any dirt or mud. Always brush in the same direction to give nubuck its original look.
The use of cream or waterproof grease on split leather is not recommended. While it will not damage the leather, it will change the look of your boots.
Benefit of the self-locking hook
With this material, you can separate the upper and lower lacing
This allows you to adjust the lacing to the shape of your foot and give your ankle as much freedom as you like. To separate the upper lacing from the lower part, make a simple knot level with your instep or use your shoes’ self-locking hook.
All of our trekking shoes have this feature.
