Product Information
Full details
The Rieker Ankle Boots are designed for adults seeking a balance of style and everyday comfort during colder weather. Featuring a soft velvet fur lining and a spacious, wider forefoot design, these leather boots prioritize warmth and room to move. While they offer excellent stability through a grippy sole, users should note that the wine-red leather material requires proper care to maintain its finish in harsh outdoor conditions.

FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather provides some natural resistance to moisture, these are not marketed as fully waterproof. We recommend using a leather-safe water repellent spray.
Can I remove the fur lining?
No, the velvet fur lining is permanently integrated into the boot interior for optimal insulation.
Does the wide forefoot mean I should size down?
The boots are designed to fit true to size, but the extra width provides more room for toe splay rather than changing the length of the shoe.
How do I best clean the velvet fur lining?
Use a soft brush to remove debris and air the boots out regularly. Avoid soaking the lining.
Are these suitable for arch support?
The provided insoles offer base comfort, but they are removable, allowing you to insert specialized orthotics if you require specific arch support.
Can I wear these in the snow?
They are suitable for light cold weather and light snow, but they are not heavy-duty snow boots.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to slide
Check for fabric or debris caught in the teeth and apply a small amount of beeswax or graphite to the track.
Insole becomes flattened over time
Remove the insole and allow it to air out; if it has lost its cushion, replace it with a new standard comfort insole.
Leather looks dull
Use a high-quality leather cream matching the wine-red tone to restore luster and protect the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Rieker boots in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Setup: The boots feature a zipper for easy entry; ensure the zipper track is free of debris before use.
- Compatibility: The removable insole makes these boots compatible with most standard orthotic inserts if additional arch support is needed.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a leather-safe conditioner periodically to maintain the suppleness of the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the lining to degrade.
