Tips

For the best fit, try the shoes with the socks you plan to wear on approaches. The extended lacing system allows micro-adjustments for a secure heel lock and toe splay. After use in wet conditions, allow the suede to air dry away from direct heat and treat regularly with a suede protector to maintain water repellency.
