04

Transition tolerance

When drop, stack or flexibility changes substantially, begin with shorter exposure. Keep a familiar pair available and increase only when the current dose feels ordinary during and after use.

Account for socks and the boot opening

Boot fit involves more than the outline of the toes. Try the intended sock thickness and check room over the instep, around the ankle and through the opening. A pair that fits with thin socks may not provide the same usable volume once you dress for cooler weather.

Separate casual weather use from technical terrain

Choose the upper and outsole for the conditions you expect, checking the exact model’s weather claims rather than relying on a boot silhouette. Bend and walk to assess how the shaft moves with you. For demanding outdoor objectives, assess the required protection independently of a preference for a flexible or lightweight construction.
