How to Choose the Right Hiking Boot

Sizing and Fit Guide

To ensure the best fit and performance, it’s crucial to select the correct size. The AKU Selvatica GTX Women’s hiking boot is designed to provide a comfortable and secure fit. We recommend using the following guide to find the perfect fit for your feet. Trying on boots is the best way to determine the most appropriate fit.

• Sizing recommendations (e.g., measuring the foot). It is recommended to measure your foot length and width and compare it to the size chart.
• Fit considerations (e.g., width, volume, and arch support). Consider the width and volume of your feet, as well as your arch type, to ensure the boots provide adequate support and comfort.
• Tips for trying on the boots. Wear the socks you intend to hike in and lace the boots snugly but not too tight.

Boot Care and Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance are essential for extending the life and maintaining the performance of your AKU Selvatica GTX hiking boots. Following these guidelines will help ensure your boots remain in top condition for years to come.

1. Cleaning Instructions: After each hike, remove dirt and debris with a soft brush. Use lukewarm water and a mild soap to clean the exterior. Rinse thoroughly and allow the boots to air dry away from direct heat.
2. Waterproofing Maintenance: Apply a waterproofing treatment every few months, or as needed, to maintain the waterproof barrier. Follow the product instructions for application.
3. Storage guidelines: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use. Remove the insoles and stuff the boots with paper to maintain their shape.
