Cleaning
Whenever you return from your trip, never forget to remove the dirt and mud that remain stuck to the bottom of your foot. First try to wash them with soap and water. If the mud is not fully removed, scrub the shoes with a soft brush.
Drying
You should always dry the hiking shoes immediately after you completed washing them, as wet footwear will be heavy in weight and thus makes your trip difficult. Never dry them near a heat source (even if you want to dry the shoes quickly) as it will substantially damage their quality. Dry them naturally by storing them in a warm, dry area.

Conditioning

It is best to use conditioners that are available in paste form. You should apply paste with your fingers and make sure that the paste soaks into the leather.
Waterproofing Treatment

For leather footwear, use wax based waterproofing product while for synthetic footwear, use of silicon based waterproofing product is recommended. Always apply two layers of waterproofing product instead of one thick layer to get best results. Never use oil (like mink oil) to waterproof your leather hiking shoes as it softens the leather and reduces its longevity.
Try to avoid using defective Hiking Shoes, replace them immediately. They should be replaced when soles are damaged and no longer provide good grip. You can also replace them when the lining becomes worn out and the seams begin to split. To avoid shoe odor, you can use baking soda. Finally, do not store the footwear in an extremely cold or hot place for a prolonged period. Store them in a place where the temperature is moderate. Following all these steps will definitely enable you to increase the lifespan of your hiking shoes.

| Price : $115.95Whether you wear Keen's Women's Targhee II shoe for trail running or just roaming around the campsite, you're going to feel a comfortable difference over conventional waterproof active wear shoes. That's because unlike other trail running shoe manufacturers who opt for using the same waterproof membranes found on practically every running shoe on the market, Keen took a route less traveled and used a new eVENT membrane fabric with Dry System Technology for better breathable comfort in wet weather. The difference is one that you can feel--most waterproof/breathable technologies require that perspiration condenses to moisture before it can pass through the membrane. eVENT membrane fabric allows sweat to pass through in vapor form, so your feet don't feel soaked in sweat like you would in other weatherproof trail running shoes. The heel of the Women's Targhee II features Keen's S3 heel support structure, a special shock-absorbing design that's engineered to support your foot on impact, minimizing your chances of twisting an ankle on rolling terrain. Like other Keen performance shoes, the Women's Targhee II is all about stability, but if you're looking for drier socks at the end of the day, the new Dry System Technology is worth checking out--especially if you forgot to pack extra socks for the return trip home.
