FAQs
How do I clean my Red Wing boots?

How often should I condition the leather?

Can I waterproof my boots?
Yes, you can apply a leather-safe waterproofer to protect the boots from moisture. Follow the product instructions.
What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

How do I break in my Red Wing boots?
Wear the boots for short periods at first, gradually increasing the time. Bend and flex the leather to help soften it.
What if my boots get wet?

How long will the boots last?

Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff and uncomfortable initially.
Wear the boots for short periods and gradually increase the wear time to allow the leather to soften. Apply leather conditioner to help the process.
The outsole is losing grip.
Clean the outsole regularly to remove dirt and debris. If the grip is significantly worn, consider getting them resoled by a professional.
Leather is cracking or drying out.
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner regularly to keep the leather moisturized. Avoid exposing the boots to extreme heat or sunlight.
Laces are fraying or breaking.
Replace the laces with a new pair. Consider using stronger laces for heavy-duty use.
