Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the heel height of these boots?

The heel height is 5.5cm (approximately 2 inches).

What material are the uppers made from?

The uppers are made from 100% thick leather.

How tall are the boots?

The boot height is 13cm for a size 42.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made from 100% PVC.

Are these boots suitable for winter weather?

While the leather and PVC sole offer some protection, they are not specifically designed as waterproof winter boots. Proper conditioning and waterproofing treatment are recommended for better resistance.

How do I clean the leather?

Wipe with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner if needed. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally and apply a leather conditioner.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces can be replaced. Standard boot laces of the appropriate length can be used.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable

This is common with new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Use thick socks to help stretch them and consider a leather conditioner to soften the material.

Laces are difficult to tie securely

Ensure the laces are threaded evenly through the eyelets. Try a double knot or a different lacing technique to improve grip and security.

Leather shows scuffs or scratches

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a black shoe polish or cream matching the boot color and a leather conditioner.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

While PVC soles offer decent grip, break them in on varied surfaces. If slipping persists, consider a sole grip enhancer or an aftermarket sole application.
