FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
They are made of water-resistant leather, but they are not fully waterproof. Using a leather protector spray is recommended.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, making them compatible with most standard-sized orthotics.
How should I clean the velvet fur lining?
Use a soft brush to remove debris. If it needs a deep clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap, then air dry thoroughly.
Do these boots run true to size?
The boots are designed with extra width in the forefoot, which typically provides a more generous fit than standard models.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the design specifically features extra width in the forefoot area for increased comfort.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Apply a small amount of beeswax or a dedicated zipper lubricant to the track to ease movement.
The leather feels stiff after getting wet
Allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat sources, then apply a leather conditioner once completely dry.
Insole slides during walking
Ensure the insole is seated correctly in the heel cup; if it persists, use a small piece of double-sided adhesive tape under the heel.
