FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather is durable and naturally water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather protector spray for added resistance.
How do I determine my size?
These boots follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual size, though keep in mind they will stretch slightly as you break them in.
Can I wear these for long walks?
Once properly broken in, they are comfortable for most daily walking, though consistent use will help them mold to your foot shape for better support.
How do I clean the yellow stitching?
Use a small, soft-bristled brush or a toothbrush with mild soapy water to gently scrub the stitching area.
Is the leather genuine?
Yes, these 1460 boots are crafted from high-quality durable leather known for its longevity and ability to develop a unique patina.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too stiff upon first wear
Wear them for short periods initially and use thick socks to help stretch and soften the leather gradually.
Scuffs appearing on the leather surface
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or a Cherry Red colored shoe polish to buff out minor marks.
Laces coming undone
Ensure they are laced tightly through all eyelets and tied with a double knot if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your boots, ensure the laces are threaded through all 8 eyelets for optimal ankle support. The boots are highly compatible with casual wear such as denim, chinos, or casual trousers, making them a wardrobe staple. To maintain the appearance of the Cherry Red leather, wipe the surface regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a matching polish occasionally to nourish the leather and maintain the richness of the red color. Avoid leaving the boots near direct heat sources, as this can cause the leather to dry out or crack.
