Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during initial wear
Allow for a break-in period of a few short hikes. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly initially. Consider if the sizing is appropriate.
Reduced traction on wet or muddy surfaces
Clean the outsole treads to remove packed dirt or mud. Be aware that while the grip is good, extreme mud can affect performance.
Feet feel warm on extended hikes
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking socks. While breathable, very high temperatures and humidity can still lead to warm feet.
