FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather offers some natural protection, they are not strictly waterproof; using a leather-safe water repellent spray is recommended for damp weather.
How do I determine my size?
These boots are sized in UK adult sizing; it is recommended to reference a standard UK shoe size chart if you are transitioning from different regional sizing.
Can I replace the insoles?
The boots feature a standard construction, but the internal space may be limited; consult a cobbler if you require custom orthotics.
What is the best way to clean the outsole?
Use a medium-bristled brush and mild soapy water to scrub the rubber outsole, then rinse and air dry away from heat sources.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The round toe design provides decent width, but those with very wide feet may find the Chelsea style slightly snug initially.
Troubleshooting
Stiffness when new
Wear the boots for short intervals indoors with thicker socks to gently stretch and soften the leather.
Scuffs on the leather surface
Use a leather eraser or a matching cream polish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the finish.
Difficulty pulling on the boot
Ensure the elastic side panels are fully engaged; use a shoehorn if the heel counter feels tight during the initial break-in phase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last for years, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dust or mud.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather-specific conditioner every few months to prevent the material from cracking or drying out.
- Storage: Keep the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and structural integrity.
- Weather Protection: Use a water-repellent spray designed for leather to add an extra layer of protection against light moisture.
