FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?

Can I use these for horseback riding?
While designed as country boots, the rugged sole provides good grip for general farm activities, though always check for stirrup clearance.
How should I clean the leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth after use and treat with a leather-specific conditioner to maintain suppleness.
Is the footbed removable?
Yes, the RCS footbed system is designed to be managed, allowing for easier drying or replacement.
Are these boots unisex?

What should I do if the leather gets soaked?
Stuff the boots with newspaper to absorb moisture from the inside and let them dry naturally away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff out of the box
Leather requires a break-in period; wear them for short walks inside or on flat terrain to soften the material.
Water leaking inside
Check the leather for deep cracks or punctures; apply a leather waterproofing wax to seal small abrasions.
Footbed feels less comfortable
Check if the RCS footbed has shifted; remove and re-seat it, or consider a replacement insole if worn out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last for years, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear your boots for shorter periods initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: After muddy use, wipe the boots down with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the leather entirely.
- Conditioning: Apply a high-quality leather conditioner regularly to keep the material supple and maintain its waterproof barrier.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Lacing: Ensure the top lace is adjusted comfortably before long walks to prevent friction against the leg.
