Full details

FAQs
What does 'H-fit' mean?
The H-fit designation indicates that the boots have a wide fit, providing more room in the width for added comfort.
Are these boots waterproof?
They are made of leather which offers natural water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. We recommend using a protective spray for extra defense against the elements.
How high is the heel?
The Bassey boots feature a comfortable 2.5 cm block heel.
Can the insoles be removed?
The internal cushioning is integrated into the design. If you need orthotics, ensure they are low-profile enough to fit comfortably within the existing structure.
What is the best way to clean the microfibre lining?
Wipe the interior gently with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Are these suitable for walking long distances?
Yes, the Air Cube cushioned sole is designed for walking comfort, though individual suitability depends on personal arch support needs.
Troubleshooting
Side zip feels difficult to pull up
Ensure no fabric is trapped in the teeth. Applying a small amount of beeswax or a specialized zipper lubricant can restore smoothness.
Leather looks dull after heavy use
Clean the surface thoroughly and apply a high-quality black leather cream or polish to restore shine and hydration.
Boots feel slightly too wide
Consider using an additional thin leather or foam insole to reduce the internal volume and improve the fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor Bassey Boots maintain their quality and comfort, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking-in: Wear them indoors for short periods initially to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather conditioner specifically formulated for black leather.
- Moisture Protection: Apply a water-repellent spray suitable for leather to protect the surface from light rain and environmental debris.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or cracking. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
