FAQs

Are these boots fully waterproof?

Yes, they are constructed with premium waterproof leather and feature HH Spray Tech to manage external moisture effectively.

Can I wear these in deep snow?

They are designed for urban winter conditions. While waterproof, they are not intended for deep, off-trail snow trekking.

How do I determine my size?

These boots follow standard UK sizing. We recommend choosing your typical size as the internal fit is designed for comfort.

Are the linings removable?

The lining is integrated into the construction to ensure a lightweight and streamlined profile, so it is not intended for removal.

What does HH Max-Grip mean?

It is a proprietary Helly Hansen rubber compound and tread design engineered specifically to provide maximum surface contact on slippery winter terrain.

Troubleshooting

Reduced grip on ice

Check the outsole for mud or packed snow buildup. Clean the grooves with a stiff brush to restore the effectiveness of the HH Max-Grip technology.

Leather appearing dry or cracking

Clean the boots thoroughly and apply a high-quality leather conditioner to rehydrate the material and prevent further drying.

Water leaking into the boot

Inspect the leather for deep scratches or damaged seams. Re-apply a protective waterproof treatment and ensure the boots are not being exposed to extreme chemical environments.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on slippery surfaces
  • Lightweight for reduced leg fatigue
  • Stylish, clean design suitable for urban environments
  • High level of waterproof protection
  • Comfortable fit with padded collar and internal cushioning

Cons

  • Not intended for deep-backcountry or extreme mountain trekking
  • Leather requires regular maintenance to maintain waterproofness
  • Limited colorways compared to non-premium models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These boots come ready to wear out of the box with no complex break-in period required due to the flexible leather upper. To maintain the waterproof integrity of your boots, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away salt, dirt, and debris after each use with a damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can crack the leather.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner or waterproof spray specifically formulated for outdoor footwear every few months to maintain the suppleness and water resistance.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mold and leather degradation.
