FAQs

Are these boots truly waterproof?

Yes, the boots feature a Helly Tech® Waterproof Membrane and a waterproof nubuck leather upper, designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

How does the BOA Fit System work?

The BOA Fit System uses a dial that you twist clockwise to tighten laces for a secure, custom fit and pull outwards to release tension, allowing for easy on and off.

What kind of safety protection do these boots offer?

They offer protection with a composite safety toe cap and a metal-free nail penetration protection plate, guarding against impacts, compression, and sharp objects.

Are these boots suitable for very cold weather?

While they offer good protection, composite toes may provide less thermal insulation compared to steel toes in extreme cold. Consider additional thermal socks if needed.

How should I care for the leather upper?

Clean with a damp cloth and apply a specialized leather conditioner for waterproof footwear regularly to maintain the material's condition and water resistance.

Can I replace the BOA system if it breaks?

BOA systems are generally robust. If an issue arises, contact Helly Hansen customer support or BOA's warranty service for potential replacement parts or service.

What is the fit like?

The boots feature a wide, roomy fit and soft, plush underfoot cushioning for comfort during extended wear.

Troubleshooting

BOA dial is stiff or difficult to turn

Check for debris around the dial and lacing system. Gently clean with a dry brush. Avoid forcing the dial.

Boots feel damp inside despite being waterproof

Ensure socks are moisture-wicking. Check if the Helly Tech membrane is intact; significant damage may require replacement. Allow boots to air dry completely between uses.

Fit feels uneven or uncomfortable

Experiment with different tension levels using the BOA system. Ensure the foot is positioned correctly inside the boot before tightening. Consider if the boot size is appropriate.

Leather upper appears dry or cracked

Clean the leather with a damp cloth and apply a suitable leather conditioner designed for waterproof footwear to restore moisture and flexibility.
