FAQs

What is the benefit of the gum outsole?

What inspired the design of this boot?
The design draws inspiration from traditional work boots, notably seen in the metal loop eyelets.
How should I clean the suede material?

What is the release date of this specific iteration?

Can these boots be worn in wet weather?
While the rugged outsole provides good traction, the suede upper is not inherently waterproof and may require treatment or care to protect it from excessive moisture.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears stained or dirty
Use a dedicated suede eraser to gently remove marks. For tougher stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner or use a suede cleaning kit, following the product instructions carefully. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Traction feels reduced
Ensure the grooves on the gum outsole are clear of debris such as mud, pebbles, or dirt. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to clean the outsole thoroughly. If the outsole is worn down significantly, traction may be permanently reduced.
Fit feels too tight or uncomfortable
Break in the boots by wearing them for short periods initially. If the boots remain uncomfortable, ensure you have the correct size. The combination of suede and mesh may require some time to mold to the foot.
