FAQs
What type of leather are these boat shoes made from?
These boat shoes feature pull-up leather uppers, known for their quality and ability to develop a patina over time.
Where are these shoes manufactured?
The Parsons Leather Boat Shoes are expertly made in Portugal.
How should I clean the leather?
Use a soft brush for general dirt removal. For tougher stains, apply a leather cleaner and follow up with a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
While the rubber sole offers some grip, the leather is not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and allow shoes to air dry naturally if they get wet.
What is the best way to store these shoes?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees is recommended to help maintain their shape.
Are these suitable for formal events?
No, these boat shoes are designed for casual wear and are best paired with informal outfits.
What does 'siped' sole mean?
A siped sole has small slits cut into the rubber. This design increases the surface area and creates more edges, enhancing grip, especially on wet surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff initially
This is normal for new leather. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.
Soles have reduced grip
Ensure the rubber soles are clean from mud or debris. For significant wear, consider professional sole inspection.
Water spots appear on leather
Allow the shoes to dry naturally. Once dry, use a leather conditioner to help restore the appearance and prevent future spotting.
Discomfort on the heel or sides
This often indicates a break-in period is still needed or a sizing issue. Try wearing them with thicker socks temporarily to ease pressure points.
