Full details

The Shires Moretta Vittoria Zip Front Boots are designed for outdoor enthusiasts, equestrians, and country dwellers who require a reliable, all-weather footwear solution.

While they provide excellent stability and support, users should be aware that the heavy-duty nature of the leather requires a brief break-in period to achieve optimal flexibility.

FAQs

Are these boots suitable for horse riding?

Yes, the XGrip sole and reinforced heel make these boots suitable for general stable work and light riding activities.

How do I know if they are waterproof?

The boots feature a dedicated waterproof membrane hidden between the lining and the outer leather, specifically designed to keep feet dry in wet conditions.

Can I use these in deep snow?

While they are waterproof and durable, they are intended for country and yard use rather than deep-winter arctic conditions.

Do I need to treat the leather before the first wear?

While they come treated, applying a leather conditioner before the first wear can help speed up the break-in process and add a layer of protection.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the ActiveFlex insoles are designed to be removed, which is helpful if you need to air them out or replace them with custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Clear any dirt or grit trapped in the zipper teeth and apply a dedicated silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Water appears to be soaking through the leather

The protective layer may have worn off; clean the boot thoroughly and re-apply a professional-grade leather waterproofing treatment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fully waterproof design with moisture-wicking lining
  • Excellent grip provided by XGrip soles
  • Reinforced protective areas for high-impact use
  • High-quality YKK zipper hardware
  • Reflective detailing for increased safety

Cons

  • Leather may feel stiff during the initial break-in period

  • Requires regular leather care to maintain waterproof efficacy

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your boots last for many seasons, proper maintenance is essential.

Setup: Upon arrival, ensure the zip operates smoothly. If the leather feels rigid, wear the boots for short periods indoors to allow the leather to soften to your foot shape.

Care: Clean off mud and debris after every use with a soft brush and water. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack and compromise the waterproof integrity. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather conditioner or waterproofing wax regularly to keep the leather supple and maintain its water-repellent properties.
