FAQs

What material is the Portofino Pier Boat Shoe made of?

The shoe is crafted from premium Timberland® leather, with a synthetic suede lining and a rubber outsole.

Are these shoes suitable for water activities?

While the siped rubber outsole provides good traction on wet surfaces, these are primarily casual shoes and not designed for prolonged water immersion or rigorous water sports.

How do I break in new boat shoes?

Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape. Wearing them with socks can also aid in comfort during the break-in process.

Can I wear these shoes without socks?

Yes, the soft synthetic suede lining is designed for comfort, making them suitable for wear without socks. However, wearing socks can help manage moisture and prevent odor.

What does 'Leather Working Group certified tanneries' mean?

It means that by purchasing this product, you are supporting tanneries that adhere to high environmental standards and responsible practices within the leather industry.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and moisture. You can stuff them with shoe trees or paper to help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to stretch and mold to your foot. If still too tight, consider a larger size or consult a shoe professional for stretching options.

Leather looks dry or dull

Apply a quality leather conditioner using a soft cloth, following the product's instructions. Allow the conditioner to penetrate before buffing.

Traction seems reduced

Ensure the siped outsole is clean and free from debris or mud. Gently scrub the grooves with a brush if necessary. For worn-out treads, replacement may be needed.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather exterior with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
