Care instructions
- Caring for your footwear is simple, just follow these three easy steps:
- Clean
- Waterproof
- Dry
Clean
- Brush off dirt, remove the shoelaces and the O FIT Insole, and rinse your footwear.
- Avoid using solvents, petroleum, and detergents on your shoes.
- Once you have generously applied the gel, rinse the boots again.
Waterproof
- If the surface of your shoes is absorbing water, it’s time to re-waterproof.
- Even styles with a B-DRY membrane will benefit from re-waterproofing.
- Dry for a few minutes, then wipe off any excess proof.
Dry
- Let the boots air-dry completely.
- Do not put your shoes in a clothes washer or dryer.
- To speed up drying, stuff your shoes with dry cloths to soak up excess moisture.
- Lace up your clean and dry footwear and hit the trail!
