Which size to choose?

We recommend trying on several sizes and models to find the best fit. If you want to ensure your toes don't hit the shoe on descents, you can go up a size, provided your foot is well supported to prevent rubbing.

How to try on your shoes?

1. Try on both shoes while standing, wearing hiking socks. 2. Tighten the laces evenly. 3. Check two things: - your heel doesn't lift off the shoe before you walk uphill - your foot doesn't slip and your toes don't hit the ground when walking downhill.

The difference between grip and adhesion

The grip optimizes propulsion, prevents the shoes from slipping backward, and stabilizes them. It depends on the number and shape of the lugs. The traction provides grip to the soles to prevent slipping and skidding on smooth surfaces or in demanding conditions.

How to maintain your shoes?

1) Let them air dry. 2) Remove dried mud with a stiff brush. 3) Clean stains with a brush and a little warm water, then let them dry. 5) Spray with a waterproofing spray to restore water repellency to the upper.

Replace your insoles

The original insole of shoes is designed to fit the widest range of feet. Changing the insole can provide: - better support (pre-molded or reinforced insoles) - more comfort (warmth and/or cushioning) - a longer lifespan for your shoes.

HOW TO AVOID BULBS?

To limit their occurrence, we advise you to: - Choose a shoe that fits you. - Wear suitable socks. - Lace and tighten your shoes appropriately. - Do not hesitate to readjust the tightness of your laces during practice, especially before tackling an ascent or descent. - Wear your shoes for a short outing the first time you use them.
