FAQs
Are these boots truly waterproof?
Yes, they feature a waterproof construction designed to keep feet dry in standard wet conditions like snow and rain.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede and the structural integrity of the boots. Spot clean only.
How do I choose the right size?
The Explorer III generally fits true to size. If you plan to wear thick winter socks, some customers prefer sizing up.
Are these suitable for deep snow?
They are designed for winter, but they are not heavy-duty snow boots. They are best for light snow and general outdoor play.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality, durable suede.
Does the zipper stay up during play?
The zippers are designed to stay secure, but ensure they are pulled all the way to the top to engage the locking mechanism.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull
Check for trapped debris or grit in the teeth. Gently wipe with a damp cloth and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax.
Water repellency fading
Apply a high-quality suede-safe water-repellent spray to restore the protective layer after heavy use.
Stains on suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft brush to gently lift surface stains. Avoid using heavy detergents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Sorel Explorer III boots in top condition, follow these care steps:
- Initial Protection: Treat the suede upper with a water-repellent spray before first use to add an extra barrier against dirt and moisture.
- Cleaning: Brush off dried mud or debris using a soft-bristled brush. Avoid submerging the boots in water.
- Drying: If the boots get wet inside, remove the liners if possible and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the side zippers are zipped up to maintain the shape of the boot collar.
