FAQs

What material are the Diesel D-Hammer Lace UP boots made of?

The boots are primarily made of leather, featuring a padded leather collar and a durable rubber lug sole.

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather provides some protection, these boots are not explicitly advertised as waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather waterproofing spray for added protection against moisture.

How should I clean the faded black wash effect?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the faded effect. If using a leather cleaner, ensure it is suitable for pigmented leather and test on an inconspicuous area first.

What type of socks are best with these boots?

Medium to thick socks made of wool or synthetic blends are recommended for comfort and to complement the rugged style of the boots. Avoid very thin socks that may not provide adequate cushioning.

Can I wear these boots in wet weather?

They can handle light wet conditions due to the leather and rubber sole, but they are not designed for heavy rain or snow. For significant wetness, ensure they are properly dried afterwards and consider waterproofing treatments.

How do I break in new leather boots?

Wear them for short periods at home initially, gradually increasing the duration. Bending the boots at the sole and flexing the leather can also help. Ensure laces are adjusted for comfort during the break-in period.

What does the 'Oval D' on the padded collar signify?

The 'Oval D' is Diesel's iconic logo, signifying the brand's signature design element and heritage.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tie or loosen

Ensure laces are not excessively worn or frayed. If they are stiff, consider replacing them or treating them with a lace conditioner.

Boots feel stiff initially

This is normal for new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.

Slight color transfer onto socks

This can occur with dark-dyed leathers, especially when new or exposed to moisture. Ensure boots are dry and consider using a color-safe spray for dark leathers. This usually diminishes with wear.

Rubbing or discomfort on the ankle

Ensure the padded collar is properly aligned and the laces are not over-tightened. Thicker socks may also help. If discomfort persists, consider a professional fitting or break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear boots. Ensure the laces are properly tied for a secure fit before wearing. Adjust lace tension to your comfort level.

Compatibility: Designed for men's footwear, these boots pair best with casual attire such as jeans, chinos, and casual trousers. They are not intended for formal wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather can be used.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This is especially important after cleaning.
  3. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather to protect against the elements, especially if wearing in wet conditions.
  4. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape when not in use.
