FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the flexible sole and leather construction are designed for comfort during daily activities, provided the fit is correct.
How do I break in new Sebago Owen boat shoes?
Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. The leather will naturally mold to your feet.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear leather-soled shoes in heavy rain as it can damage the leather and reduce traction. Light, dry conditions are best.
What is the best way to clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher marks, a dedicated leather cleaner followed by air drying is recommended.
Do the laces need special care?
The decorative leather laces can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could alter their color or texture.
What is the benefit of Strobel construction?
Strobel construction allows for greater flexibility in the shoe, contributing to overall comfort and a more natural feel when walking.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or wrinkling
This is natural for leather. Ensure shoes are stored properly on shoe trees to maintain shape. Regular conditioning can help keep the leather supple.
Slipping on wet surfaces
Leather soles offer less grip on wet surfaces. Use caution in wet conditions. Consider a professional cobbler for adding rubber sole protectors if enhanced grip is frequently needed.
Fading or discoloration of leather
Protect the shoes from prolonged direct sunlight. Use a leather conditioner with UV protection, or apply a suitable color-restoring polish if needed.
