FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The fit can vary. The 360° lace system allows for some adjustment. Trying them on is recommended if possible, or check customer reviews regarding width.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the leather and construction offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain, and ensure they are properly dried and conditioned afterward.
How often should I condition the leather?
Conditioning frequency depends on wear and environmental conditions. Generally, once every few months or when the leather starts to feel dry is sufficient.
What is the benefit of Ortholite® insoles?
Ortholite® insoles provide long-lasting cushioning, breathability, moisture management, and inhibit odor-causing bacteria, enhancing overall comfort.
How do I clean mud or dirt off the leather?
Allow mud to dry, then brush it off. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap or leather cleaner, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
What does 'certified tannery' mean for the leather?
It means the leather comes from a facility that has undergone an external environmental audit and meets standards for energy consumption, waste management, and water treatment, indicating responsible leather manufacturing.
Is there a break-in period for these shoes?
Yes, like most quality leather footwear, these shoes may require a short break-in period to fully conform to the shape of your foot for maximum comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thicker socks for a few hours each day to allow the leather to stretch and mold to your foot. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for this type of leather. Follow the product's instructions and allow the conditioner to penetrate.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces
While the lug outsole provides traction, very wet or smooth surfaces can still be slick. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is clean of debris.
Laces fraying
Replace the leather laces with new ones. Ensure replacement laces are of a similar type and length for proper function of the 360° system.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoes.

- Protection: Consider using a waterproof spray suitable for leather to offer protection against water and stains, especially if you anticipate exposure to moisture.
