Boot Maintenance
REPLACEMENT INTERVALS
- Always follow the recommended replacement intervals that come with your boots.
- Light use (like aerobics or dancing): You can usually stretch the replacement intervals a bit longer.
- Heavy use (like running on sand or fully compressing the shells): It’s a good idea to keep spare parts on hand, as you’ll likely need to replace them more often.
MYFIT ELASTIC BANDS
- Your elastic bands need a bit of regular TLC. They should be replaced roughly every 50–60 hours of use.
- If you leave them too long, extra strain can build up on the shells, which might cause cracks or breakage.
- TIP: Follow the guide on how to change them when it’s time.
MYFIT LINERS
- Keep your liners fresh and hygienic by giving them a quick spray with antibacterial cleaner after each session.
- Pop them in the washing machine from time to time using a normal laundry cycle, and make sure they’re completely dry before your next use.
- Try to avoid the tumble dryer, but if you really have to, use a low-heat setting.
MYFIT BLADES
- These don’t need regular maintenance – just replace them when they eventually break from heavy use.
- When you do replace one blade, always replace the matching one on the opposite side too.
- For example, if the upper right spring breaks, change the upper left at the same time.
MYFIT TREADS
- Check your treads every now and then – if the profile looks worn down (like tyre treads on a car), it’s time for a new set.
- This is especially important if you’re using your boots outdoors often. The good news? They usually last for years before needing to be replaced.
BREAKING IN NEW PARTS
- Whenever you replace a part – even liners – give it a bit of time to settle in.
Just like a new car needs a gentle break-in period, so do new blades and elastic bands.
