Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are made of water-resistant leather, but they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather protector spray for better performance in wet weather.
How do I clean the interior lining?
If the lining needs cleaning, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and allow it to air dry naturally away from radiators.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, if you require specific arch support, the existing insoles can often be swapped for orthotic-friendly alternatives.
Do these boots run true to size?
The Gabor 631.1 fits standard UK sizing. If you plan to wear thick winter socks, some users prefer to size up by half a size.
Are they suitable for icy conditions?
The rubber sole provides better traction than smooth leather soles, but they are not specialized anti-slip ice boots.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to slide
Rub a small amount of clear beeswax or a graphite pencil lead along the zipper teeth to lubricate the track.
Leather looks dull after exposure to moisture
Clean the surface, allow it to air dry fully, and apply a matching black leather polish to restore shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
