Technical sole
Sole design that has been the subject of extensive research in our laboratories, combined with a specific rubber formulation to offer the best compromise between grip and adhesion. The design of the FH 500 sole will offer more adhesion than grip. Definition > Grip: this is about not slipping on soft ground (greasy or dry). Adhesion: this is about not slipping on hard ground (wet or dry).
evofit concept
The inner foam, stretch mesh and outer design are designed to perfectly fit the shape of your foot. Combined with a welded film, they ensure good support and maximum comfort.
What size to choose?
For hiking, do not hesitate to take a size above your usual size to ensure optimal comfort on the descent and to prevent your toes from hitting the stop. Tip: keep your nails short and, before any descent, check that your lacing prevents your foot from sliding towards the front of the shoe.
Cutting
In addition, we would like to point out that since these shoes are designed for fast hiking, the design team has chosen to emphasize foot support and comfort as much as possible. This is why at first it is possible that these shoes may be difficult to put on for hikers with strong feet.
How to avoid blisters?
Blisters usually appear when our skin is weakened by friction. In order to limit their appearance, we advise you to: – Choose a shoe that fits you (consult the size guide) – Wear suitable socks – Lace and tighten your shoes appropriately – Wear your shoes on a short outing when using them for the first time
How to maintain your shoes?
– Allow to air dry.- Remove dry mud with a fairly stiff brush.- For stains, clean with a brush and a little warm water.- Allow to dry.- Spray a re-waterproofing spray to restore water repellency to the upper.
