FAQs
Are these boots truly waterproof?
Yes, the Tasman GTX boots feature a waterproof suede upper and an internal GORE-TEX membrane, providing a high level of waterproofing.
Can I wear these in freezing temperatures?
Yes, these boots are designed to keep you warm in temperatures as low as -20ºC.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a soft brush for dry dirt and a damp cloth with minimal mild soap for stains. Always allow to air dry and consider using a suede protector spray.
What is UGGplush™?
UGGplush™ is a proprietary blend of wool and lyocell fibers, crafted to feel like plush, warm, and comfortable shearling.
What is the main difference between these and regular Tasman boots?
The main difference is the weather-ready construction of the Tasman GTX, featuring a GORE-TEX membrane and waterproof suede for enhanced protection against rain and cold, unlike the standard Tasman models.
Do these boots require a break-in period?
While generally comfortable out of the box, like most footwear, they may benefit from a short break-in period for the materials to fully conform to your foot shape.
What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?
Wool or thermal socks are recommended to complement the warmth provided by the boots, especially in very cold conditions. Avoid excessively thick socks that might make the fit too tight.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel slightly tight initially
This is common with new suede footwear. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the UGGplush™ lining to mold to your foot. The GORE-TEX membrane may also require a short break-in period.
Water seeping through seams
Ensure the waterproof treatment is up-to-date. Check seams for any visible damage. Contact customer support if the issue persists, as this may indicate a defect in the GORE-TEX membrane.
Suede appears stained or discolored
Use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first. For stubborn stains, professional cleaning might be necessary.
Reduced traction on slippery surfaces
Inspect the Vibram® outsole for embedded debris or wear. Clean the sole with water and a brush. If significant wear is observed, consider replacement options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: Designed primarily for women, these boots are suitable for adult use in cold and wet environments. They pair well with casual winter attire.
Care:
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a damp cloth and mild soap sparingly. Avoid soaking the boots.
- Waterproofing: While constructed with waterproof materials, periodic reapplication of a suede protector spray designed for waterproof footwear is recommended to maintain optimal performance.
- Drying: If the boots become wet, stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
