Occasional use: 10 hikes per year of about a 3-4 hour duration, covering less than 10 km and less than 700 m in elevation gain.\u003cbr\u003e2. Regular: 20 outings of a 4-6 hour duration, 10 to 20 km, 700 to 1,200 m in elevation gain\u003cbr\u003e3.

You can take a size above your usual one to prevent the toes from bumping into the toe box when going downhill, provided the foot is properly supported to avoid friction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ehow to try on your boots?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e1. Try on both boots, while standing up, with the socks worn for hiking.\u003cbr\u003e2. Tighten the laces, distributing the tension evenly.\u003cbr\u003e3. Check two aspects:\u003cbr\u003e- that your heel doesn’t lift up before the boot when walking on an incline\u003cbr\u003e- that your foot doesn’t slip; and also that your toes don’t hit the front on the downhill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe technical nature of the Outdoor Contact sole\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe increased grip and resistance of this high-performance sole are due to an exclusive rubber blend. The design of the sole is what strengthens the grip. Our laboratory tests evaluate the grip coefficient on various surfaces\/conditions, while our field tests in the mountains confirm it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat’s the difference between traction and grip?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTraction optimises propulsion, prevents the boot from slipping backwards and stabilises it. It depends on the number and shape of the boot crampons. \u003cbr\u003eGrip prevents the boot from slipping and skidding on smooth ground or in demanding conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to prolong the waterproofness?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe advise you to re-waterproof your boots twice a year, using a waterproofing product (available on our website\/in Decathlon shops) to continue to protect them from water. You can use waterproof gaiters to prevent the infiltration of water from the top of the boot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to care for your boots\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e1. Leave your boots to air dry.\u003cbr\u003e2. Remove dry mud with a stiff brush. \u003cbr\u003e3. Clean stains with a brush and some warm water and leave to dry.\u003cbr\u003e4. Use a re-waterproofing spray to restore water-repellency on the upper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ereplace your insoles\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original insole in your boots is designed to accommodate most feet. A change of insole can offer:\u003cbr\u003e- Better support (preformed or reinforced soles)\u003cbr\u003e- More comfort (warmth and\/or cushioning)\u003cbr\u003e- A longer boot lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow can you avoid blisters?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe have some tips for preventing blisters when hiking.

The boot is immersed in water to mid-height on a mechanical arm that flexes to simulate a certain number of steps. With this test we can determine the time and number of kilometres that the boot can walk while staying dry. Then we confirm these capacities out in the field and under the rain, with usage tests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry after each usage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry in the open air.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStorage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore your boots in a well-ventilated room away from light and moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTest\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll our models are tested by representative users in conditions that mirror those you would encounter when you wear them.
