FAQs
Are these boots suitable for long-distance walking?
Yes, the ActiveFlex insole and Impact Support System are designed to provide comfort for walking, though they are specifically engineered for equestrian and outdoor use.
Can I use these for jumping or dressage?
Yes, the boots feature a riding-specific sole with a steel shank that is designed to be safe and functional in the stirrup.
How do I clean the nubuck leather?
Use a specialized brush designed for nubuck to lift dirt and maintain the nap of the leather. Avoid harsh soaps or solvents.
What is the function of the side gusset?
The gusset behind the YKK zip provides extra room and flexibility, allowing for a more comfortable fit around the calf area.
Are these boots fully waterproof?
The boots contain a waterproof membrane sock to block external moisture, keeping your feet dry during regular outdoor activity.
Do these boots come in wide calf sizes?

Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping the boots
Ensure the internal gusset is laying flat and free of debris. Use a small amount of silicone lubricant on the zip if it becomes stiff.
Water penetration through leather
The nubuck finish needs regular re-application of a waterproofing spray to maintain its barrier against heavy moisture.
Soles feeling slippery in mud
Clean the tread thoroughly with a stiff brush to remove compacted debris, which can impact the grip of the AllTerrain soles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, it is essential to follow proper care instructions. After use, remove mud and dirt with a soft brush once the boots are dry. Do not force-dry leather near direct heat sources, as this can cause cracking. Use a specialized nubuck leather cleaner or spray to preserve the water-repellent finish. When choosing your size, ensure there is enough room for your preferred riding socks, utilizing the calf gusset to adjust for a precise fit over breeches or thin trousers.
