Using these Merrell hiking boots is straightforward. Just lace them up and you're ready to hit the trails. When choosing the right size, it's best to measure your feet accurately. Before your first hike, wear them around the house for a bit to break them in. During use, be aware that the boots are designed for various outdoor activities, but avoid extremely sharp objects that could damage the upper. For maintenance, clean the boots after each use. Use a soft brush to remove dirt and debris from the upper. If the boots get wet, let them dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Periodically, apply a leather conditioner to the pig suede leather part to keep it supple and waterproof. Replace the laces if they show signs of excessive wear. And don't forget to check the outsole regularly for any signs of damage or excessive wear. With proper care, these boots will serve you well for many adventures.
