FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the leather is durable, it is not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective leather spray if you frequently encounter wet conditions.
How do I determine my size?
The Riptide series follows standard UK sizing. We recommend choosing the size you typically wear in other premium leather dress shoes.
Can I replace the insoles?
The shoes are designed for optimal comfort; however, if you require custom orthotics, ensure they fit within the low-profile volume of the shoe.
How often should I polish my Riptide shoes?
A light polish every few weeks or whenever the leather starts to look dull will help maintain the color and protective barrier.
Are these suitable for formal events?
Yes, their refined design makes them appropriate for smart-casual and many business-casual settings.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing dull or dry
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner using a soft cloth and buff gently to restore the natural shine.
Stiff fit during initial use
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Minor scuffs on surface
Use a matching brown shoe cream or a specialized leather eraser to buff out surface-level marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Riptide shoes, avoid direct prolonged exposure to extreme heat or moisture. For daily maintenance, wipe away surface dust with a dry cloth. Use a high-quality leather cream or conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Given the high-quality leather, consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape when stored for extended periods.
