Tips

For the best fit, consider sizing down half a size from your street shoe if you prefer a performance fit, or stick with your street size for all-day comfort. Allow the shoes to air dry after use to maintain the breathable upper's effectiveness. Pair with thin climbing socks for extra moisture management on hot days.
