FAQs
Are the Dubarry Galway boots suitable for wide calves?
The standard Galway boot has a specific fit. If you find the calf area too restrictive, you may consider the SlimFit version or consult a professional fitter.
How do I know if my boots are authentic?
Authentic Dubarry boots feature the brand logo and high-quality craftsmanship details such as consistent stitching and the specific GORE-TEX label.
Can I use these for horseback riding?
Yes, their durable sole and slim profile make them a popular choice for country pursuits, including equestrian activities.
How often should I clean the leather?
Clean after every heavy use. Apply leather conditioner every few months or whenever the material appears dull or dry.
Can the soles be replaced?
While the boots are highly durable, professional cobblers with experience in complex boot construction may be able to resole them depending on wear levels.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff during initial wear
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations on flat terrain until the material softens to your foot shape.
Water appears to be soaking through
Check the leather for deep scratches or lack of conditioning. Apply a quality leather restorer and ensure the GORE-TEX membrane has not been compromised by sharp objects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Dubarry Galway boots perform at their peak, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you wear appropriate outdoor socks when trying on the boots to get an accurate feel for the size.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Cleaning: After use in muddy conditions, rinse off debris with fresh water and a soft brush. Never force-dry the leather.
- Conditioning: Regularly apply a recommended leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and water repellency.
- Lacing: Adjust the top lace for a snug fit to keep out debris, but ensure it is not so tight that it restricts circulation.
