FAQs
Are these boots true to size?
The boots are generally considered true to size. However, due to the thick neoprene lining, some users prefer to size up if they plan to wear very thick socks or if they are between sizes.
Can I wear these in very cold weather?
Yes, the 3mm neoprene lining is specifically designed for insulation and warmth in cold conditions, making them suitable for winter use.
How do I clean mud off the boots?
Rinse the boots thoroughly with fresh water after use. Use a soft sponge or cloth to wipe away mud. Avoid abrasive brushes or harsh detergents.
What is the warranty period?
Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. Please refer to the specific warranty documentation provided at the time of purchase or contact the retailer directly for details.
Can the insoles be removed?
The insoles are typically integrated for optimal comfort and support. They are not designed to be easily removable.
Is the rubber material flexible?
Yes, the boots are made from Le Chameau's exclusive Chamolux rubber, which is formulated to be both flexible and soft for comfort, while remaining durable.
How do I adjust the strap for the best fit?
The strap allows you to tighten or loosen the fit around your calf. Adjust it until you achieve a comfortable, secure fit that prevents the boot from slipping down but does not constrict circulation.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially.
This is normal for handcrafted natural rubber. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase usage to break them in. Walking will soften the rubber over time.
Water seeping into the boot.
Ensure the waterproof gusset is correctly positioned and the adjustable strap is tightened snugly. Check for any visible tears or punctures in the rubber. If a puncture is found, consider a rubber repair kit.
Discomfort or rubbing on the calf.
Adjust the strap for a more precise fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks, as the neoprene lining can sometimes cause friction with thin socks. Consider thicker walking socks.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
While the bi-density sole offers good grip, extremely smooth or wet surfaces can challenge any footwear. Ensure the sole is clean of debris. For very slick conditions, exercise caution.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After each use, clean the boots with fresh water to remove mud and debris. Use a sponge or soft cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap can be used sparingly.
- Drying: Never dry boots near a direct heat source (like a radiator or fire), as this can damage the rubber. Stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding the boots sharply. It is recommended to store them upright or on a boot rack.
- Maintenance: Periodically, applying a rubber protector or cleaner can help maintain the suppleness of the rubber and prolong the life of the boots.
