FAQs
How do I clean the leather?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals. Allow the boots to air dry naturally.
What kind of socks should I wear?
Wear moisture-wicking socks to keep your feet dry and comfortable. Choose socks appropriate for the weather and activity.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather regularly, usually every few weeks or as needed, depending on use and conditions.
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are water-resistant but not fully waterproof. They can handle light rain and wet conditions, but prolonged exposure to water may require additional waterproofing treatment.
How do I break in these boots?
Wear the boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing the time. This allows the leather to soften and conform to your feet. You can also try wearing thicker socks around the house.
What is BLOOM technology?
BLOOM technology uses algae-based foam for the midsole and insole, providing cushioning and support while reducing the use of petroleum-based materials.
How do I care for the NosiLife collar?
The NosiLife collar requires no special care. Simply clean the boots as instructed.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight.
Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. Consider wearing thinner socks or breaking in the boots with thicker socks around the house.
Leather is cracking.
Apply leather conditioner regularly. Avoid exposing the boots to extreme heat or sunlight.
Boots feel slippery on wet surfaces.
Ensure the outsole is clean. Consider replacing the outsole if the tread is worn.
Odour persists.
Use a boot deodorizer. Remove and wash the insoles or replace them.
