FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Oakley FT Edge Boots are not explicitly marketed as waterproof. Their leather and polyester construction offers some resistance to light moisture, but they are not designed for heavy rain or submersion. For added protection, a suitable water-repellent spray can be applied.
How do I determine the correct size?
These boots are listed in UK adult foot sizes. We recommend referring to a detailed size chart and potentially trying them on with the type of socks you intend to wear. If you are between sizes, consider the larger size for comfort.
What is the best way to clean the yellow color?
For the yellow leather, use a mild leather cleaner and conditioner. For the polyester sections, a damp cloth with a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap is effective. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I wear these boots in winter?
These boots are suitable for mild winter conditions, particularly in urban settings. The track sole offers good grip, but they do not feature specific insulation for extreme cold. For colder temperatures, consider adding thermal socks.
Do the boots come with a warranty?
Info needed: Please consult your retailer or the official Oakley website for specific warranty information regarding manufacturing defects or material issues.
Are these boots heavy?
While providing a sturdy feel due to their construction, the Oakley FT Edge Boots are designed for comfortable wear without being excessively heavy. The weight is balanced to offer durability without compromising everyday mobility.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
New boots often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations around the house with thick socks to gently mold them to your feet. Ensure you've chosen the correct size.
Scuffs or marks appear on the leather panels.
Clean the area gently with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, apply a small amount of matching leather cream or conditioner and buff with a clean cloth. For minor marks, a leather eraser can be effective.
Yellow color appears dull or faded.
Regular cleaning and conditioning of the leather parts will help maintain vibrancy. For polyester areas, a gentle wash with a mild detergent can brighten the color. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight, which can cause fading.
Laces frequently come untied.
Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot, such as a double knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, durable boot laces.

Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your Oakley FT Edge Boots, given their 61% Leather and 39% Polyester composition.
- Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, wipe the boots with a soft, damp cloth. For leather panels, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to prevent drying and cracking. For polyester sections, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used, then wipe clean.
- Stains: Address stains promptly. For leather, use a specific leather stain remover. For polyester, dab gently with a clean cloth and mild detergent solution.
- Drying: Always allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for both leather and textile materials to add an extra layer of protection.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
