FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they are designed with a waterproof construction, making them suitable for snow and slush, though they should not be submerged in deep water.
How do I ensure the right fit for my toddler?
We recommend measuring your child's foot while they are wearing the socks they intend to use with the boots to allow for proper clearance.
Can I put these boots in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and the internal structure of the boot. Clean by hand only.
Are these suitable for very deep snow?
While they provide great warmth and traction, they are designed as a versatile toddler boot and are best for light to moderate snowy conditions.
What is the purpose of the DUOTREAD pods?
The DUOTREAD rubber pods are placed in high-impact zones to provide superior grip and prevent sliding on slippery surfaces.
How warm are they?
With 100g of insulation, they provide sufficient warmth for standard winter temperatures and active outdoor play.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or difficult to pull up
Check for debris or dirt caught in the zipper teeth and wipe clean; applying a silicone-based zipper lubricant can also help.
Boots feel slippery on smooth indoor surfaces
Ensure the rubber traction pods are free of caked-on mud or salt, which can reduce the effectiveness of the tread.
Suede looks discolored after exposure to salt
Use a specialized suede cleaning brush to gently lift the nap and remove salt residue; do not use water to scrub salt spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these boots feature suede uppers, it is highly recommended to apply a water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before the first use. To clean, gently wipe away dried mud or dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Avoid soaking the boots in water. If the interior microfleece becomes damp from snow entering the top of the boot, remove the footbed if possible and air dry in a well-ventilated room away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material. Ensure the zipper is kept free of debris to maintain a smooth glide.
