Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is correct.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While Vibram TC5+ offers excellent traction, extreme wet conditions can challenge any outsole. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris that could impede grip.
Feet feel warm during use
The shoes are designed for breathability, but in very hot conditions, this may be maximized. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Allow shoes to air out after use.
