FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

These boat shoes are made from leather and are not inherently waterproof. While a water-repellent spray can offer some protection, they are best worn in dry conditions.

How should I clean the faux crocodile finish?

Use a soft, dry cloth for general dusting. For cleaning, a slightly damp cloth is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the texture.

What is the benefit of the handsewn construction?

Handsewn construction is a traditional method that allows the shoe to flex more naturally with your foot, contributing to comfort and a classic aesthetic. It also signifies meticulous craftsmanship.

Can these shoes be worn with socks?

Yes, these boat shoes can be worn with or without socks. Many prefer to wear them with no-show socks for comfort and hygiene, especially in warmer weather.

What does 'Authentic 3-Eye Lug' refer to?

Authentic refers to the classic Timberland design. '3-Eye Lug' refers to the style featuring three pairs of eyelets for lacing and a lug sole, though this model features a more traditional boat shoe sole for comfort and style.

What is the Leather Working Group?

The Leather Working Group (LWG) is an organization that audits and promotes environmental best practices in the leather manufacturing industry. Purchasing products supporting LWG means you are contributing to responsible leather sourcing.

How do I determine my UK size?

Refer to a standard shoe size conversion chart to match your foot measurement to the corresponding UK size. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary between brands.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Leather shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. Consider using a shoe stretcher or consulting a cobbler if the tightness is significant.

Leather scuffs or marks appear

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather cleaner or conditioner suitable for the faux crocodile finish. Test any product on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces fraying

Replace rawhide laces with new ones of similar material. Ensure knots are tied securely but not excessively tight to avoid undue stress on the laces.

Sole becoming detached

For minor separation, a strong adhesive designed for shoe repair might temporarily fix the issue. For significant detachment, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult males and are best suited for casual and smart-casual attire. They pair well with jeans, shorts, chinos, and casual trousers.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and debris with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  • Conditioning: To maintain the leather's suppleness and prevent cracking, use a leather conditioner specifically designed for smooth leather. Apply sparingly with a clean cloth and buff gently.
  • Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather to protect against the elements and spills. Reapply periodically.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box, to maintain their shape and protect the finish.
