MAKING WATERPROOFING LAST LONGER
The waterproofing of boots is often compromised because water gets in at the collar of the boot. To keep your feet dry for longer, it is therefore advisable to use a waterproof gaiter or mini-gaiter that will prevent not only water from getting inside through the top, but also pebbles, sand, etc. It is advisable to use a waterproof spray several times a year. This restores the original water-repellent properties and prevents staining.
CARE ADVICE
1 / Use a brush and/or sponge to clean the boot and remove any dirt or mud.
2/ Then leave to air-dry, away from any heat source.
3/ Finish by using a re-waterproofing spray to keep optimal water-repellency of the upper and extend the life of the boot.

WHICH SIZE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
WHICH SIZE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
For hiking, do not hesitate to choose one size above your usual size to ensure optimal comfort when going downhill and prevent your toes from hitting the front of the shoe. Tip: keep your toenails short and, before descending, check that your lacing prevents your foot from sliding forward inside the shoe.
5 LEVELS OF WATERPROOFING
During the waterproofing test, we test 5 levels of waterproofing:
2,000 flexes (approximately 2.5 miles, 30 minutes of walking)
10,000 flexes (approximately 6 miles, 3 hours of walking)
30,000 (approximately 9 miles, 6 hours of walking)
50,000 flexes (approximately 12.5 miles, 8 hours of walking)
100,000 flexes (approximately >12.5 miles, 24 hours of walking)
WATERPROOFING TEST
Our shoes are laboratory tested according to 2 successive tests
Test 1 / We test the efficiency of the membrane only when it is pressured and placed in water, we check the absence of water at the surface, like when you test a “punctured inner tube”.
Test 2 / Thanks to mechanical arms that simulate walking, the assembled shoes are half immersed in water and they complete thousands of flexes to check that the inside of the shoe remains dry and it is therefore waterproof.
BUYING TIPS / HOW DO YOU TRY YOUR BOOTS ON?
How to choose your shoes:
1. Try both boots on, standing up, wearing the socks you use for hiking.
2. Tighten the laces correctly
3. Check the following 2 areas of comfort: the heel and the front of the foot when going downhill.
4. Get up to walk with the shoes on.
5. Try on several sizes and several models.
6. Wear your boots for increasingly long periods to wear them in
