Full details

Crafted in Portugal from high-quality, water-resistant waxed leather, these boots provide excellent protection against the elements while ensuring all-day wearability thanks to an engineered gel midsole and Ortholite footbed.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
They are crafted from water-resistant waxed leather, making them highly capable of handling wet conditions, though they are not marketed as fully submersible waterproof footwear.
How should I clean the boots?
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and allow the leather to air dry naturally.
Can I replace the insoles?
The boots feature an Ortholite footbed, which is generally removable if you need to use custom orthotics.
What is Blake stitching?
Blake stitching is a construction method where the outer sole is stitched directly to the upper, resulting in a lighter, more flexible boot.
Will the brown color change?
Yes, the wax finish and the natural leather characteristics mean the color will develop a unique patina, often resulting in a more varied or distressed shade over time.
What is the sizing standard?
These boots follow UK sizing. This specific pair is a UK size 12.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff during first use
Leather requires a break-in period; wear them for shorter intervals around the house before full-day outdoor use.
Surface of the leather looks scratched or worn
This is part of the intended patina process. Use a leather conditioner to nourish the material and buff out unwanted scuffs if desired.
Water resistance seems to decrease
The wax coating may wear off naturally; apply a high-quality leather waterproofing wax to restore the protective layer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots are ready to wear out of the box but benefit from a brief break-in period to allow the leather to soften to your foot shape. For storage, use shoe trees to help the boots maintain their structure and assist in moisture evaporation after use. Clean the boots using a soft, dry brush to remove surface dust. If the boots become saturated, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the leather from cracking. Periodically re-apply a wax-based leather conditioner to maintain the water-resistant properties of the material.
