FAQs

Are the shoes truly waterproof?

Yes, the GORE-TEX membrane provides excellent waterproofing, keeping your feet dry in wet conditions.

How do I clean the shoes?

Use a damp cloth to wipe off dirt. For stubborn stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the shoe's material.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Any type of sock is fine, but for cold or wet weather, consider wool or synthetic socks for added warmth and moisture-wicking properties.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather every few months, or more frequently if you live in a dry climate or wear the shoes often.

Can I wear these shoes in the snow?

Yes, the GORE-TEX membrane and Vibram soles make them suitable for snowy conditions, though take extra care on icy surfaces.

What is the lifespan of these shoes?

With proper care, these shoes can last for several years. Regular cleaning and conditioning will extend their lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the shoe.

Check the laces and tongue area for proper closure. Ensure there are no visible tears or damage to the GORE-TEX membrane. If the issue persists, consider professional repair or replacement.
