FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are crafted from leather and feature a Vibram® rubber outsole, but they are not inherently waterproof. We recommend using a leather waterproofing spray for added protection against moisture.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and follow the product instructions. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What is the purpose of the 360° lacing system?

The functional 360° lacing system allows you to adjust the fit around the entire shoe, ensuring a secure and customized feel.

Do these shoes require a break-in period?

Yes, due to the premium leather construction and unlined interior, a break-in period is expected for optimal comfort. Wear them for short durations initially.

What type of socks are best with these shoes?

Thin to medium-weight socks, such as cotton or wool blends, are generally recommended. No-show socks can also maintain the clean aesthetic.

Can I wear these shoes in saltwater or on a boat?

While suitable for boat decks due to their grip, prolonged exposure to saltwater is not recommended as it can damage the leather. Rinse with fresh water if exposed and dry thoroughly.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable.

This is common with new, high-quality leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration to allow the leather to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner. This will restore moisture and shine to the leather. Ensure the shoes are clean before applying conditioner.

Soles show signs of wear.

The Vibram® rubber outsole is durable, but all soles wear over time. Check for significant wear that affects traction. Consult a cobbler for potential sole repair or replacement if necessary.

Laces are difficult to adjust.

Ensure the laces are not overly saturated or stiff. If they are stiff, a small amount of leather conditioner or beeswax can help them slide more easily.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

  • Protection: Consider using a waterproofing spray designed for leather, especially if you anticipate encountering damp conditions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
