Check that the inside of the boots is always free of traces of dirt. It is recommended to shake or brush the interior, since small stones can damage your feet or the lining, possibly affecting waterproofing.

To enjoy extra comfort and make the most of the technical features of the boot, choosing the right sock is very important. These must have a good fit to the foot and flat seams to avoid friction with the skin. It is preferable that they are made of materials that help expel moisture, that are highly resistant and that have a certain level of padding. It is also important that you pay attention to its thermoregulatory capacity, do not neglect it.

When tying the laces, try to find the right level, the foot must be firmly adjusted inside the boot, but without too much pressure. Maintain good toe clearance and proper heel support.

The laces are treated to have a high resistance to abrasion and to not absorb moisture, which can make them a little more slippery than normal laces. To prevent the knot from coming untied, we recommend you tie a double knot.

Take spare socks with you for long rides or hot weather. It is convenient to change them regularly to favor the evacuation of sweat.
