No, these Timberland Classic Leather Boat Shoes are not waterproof. They feature a smooth leather upper, which can be protected with a water-repellent spray, but they are not designed for prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain.

Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner designed for smooth leather, followed by a leather conditioner to moisturize and protect the material.

Like most quality leather footwear, these boat shoes may require a short break-in period to fully conform to your feet. We recommend wearing them for shorter periods initially and gradually increasing wear time.

Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house, gradually increasing wear time. Leather conditioners can also help soften the material faster.

Clean the shoes with a soft, damp cloth, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner or cream. For scuffs, a leather renovator or polish in a matching color can help restore the finish. Regular conditioning is key to preventing dryness.

The rubber sole is designed for good traction, but extreme conditions or worn treads can reduce grip. Ensure the soles are clean of debris. If the issue persists on smooth, wet surfaces, consider using specialized non-slip treatments for rubber soles.

Ensure the laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. For boat shoes, the traditional lacing style can sometimes come loose; re-tighten the entire lacing system from the eyelets to the knot for a more secure fit.
