FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
They are water-resistant due to the waxed cotton finish, which helps shed light rain, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in deep puddles.
Do I need to break these in?
While the sole is flexible, the waxed cotton and leather components may feel stiff during the first few wears as the material adapts to your foot shape.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for orthotics or thicker insoles if needed.
Are these suitable for winter?
They are excellent for mild winter days, but they are not insulated for sub-zero temperatures.
How do I choose the right size?
These boots follow standard UK sizing; refer to the manufacturer's size guide and compare with your current best-fitting boots.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Clear any debris from the zipper track and apply a small amount of dry lubricant or beeswax to the teeth.
Waxed finish looks dull or scuffed
Use a specialized fabric wax treatment to re-nourish the cotton and buff the leather accents with a neutral leather conditioner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, avoid machine washing, which can strip the wax coating. Clean the exterior by wiping gently with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt. If the boots become saturated, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the leather and wax. Periodically reapplying a wax treatment can help maintain the water-repellent qualities of the cotton. Ensure your feet are measured correctly as sizing aligns with standard UK unisex boot sizing; for those wearing thicker winter socks, consider if a slightly roomier fit is preferred.
