FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are made from nubuck leather and have a synthetic wool lining. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not fully waterproof. For significant wet weather, applying a waterproofing spray designed for nubuck leather is recommended.
How do I clean the nubuck leather?
Use a suede brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Avoid using water excessively.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the EVA insole is removable. You can replace it with your own custom orthotics or a different type of insole if desired.
What is the purpose of the side zipper?
The zipper on the inner side is designed for convenience, allowing for quick and easy on-and-off access without needing to untie the laces.
Are these boots suitable for snow?
The warm wool lining makes them suitable for cold weather. However, they are not designed for deep snow or extreme icy conditions and may require additional traction aids for slippery surfaces.
What material is the lining made of?
The lining is made of 100% synthetic wool, providing warmth and comfort.
How should I store these boots when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently rub the teeth of the zipper with a graphite pencil. If the issue persists, use a small amount of silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers.
Nubuck leather appears stained or dirty.
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated nubuck cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, try removing the insole to create more volume, or consider wearing them for shorter periods to allow them to break in.
Lining feels damp after wear.
Allow the boots to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing again. If the issue is frequent, consider using moisture-wicking socks.
