FAQs
Are these boots true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but because they are slip-on boots, you may prefer a slightly roomier fit to accommodate socks.
Can I wear these in deep snow?
They are designed for urban wet conditions; while the leather is waterproof, they are not insulated specifically for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
How do I clean the rubber mudguard?
The mudguard can be wiped down easily with a damp cloth or a soft brush and mild soap.
Are these suitable for long hikes?
While durable, these are primarily designed for urban utility rather than technical trail hiking.
Is the leather genuine?
Yes, the Trooper Chelsea WP uses high-quality leather construction for maximum durability and protection.
Does the elastic lose its shape over time?
The elastic gore is reinforced for durability, but consistent use and proper care will help maintain its elasticity for years.
Troubleshooting
Difficult to slide foot into the boot
Use a shoe horn to assist with the heel transition while the elastic gore adjusts to your foot shape over time.
Waterproofing appears less effective
Ensure the leather is clean, then re-apply a high-quality leather waterproofing treatment or water-repellent spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are slip-on boots, there is no setup required. To maintain the waterproof properties and the appearance of the leather, it is recommended to clean the exterior regularly with a damp cloth to remove salt and grit. Apply a leather conditioner or a dedicated waterproofing spray periodically to ensure the material remains supple and resistant to moisture. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could compromise the surface of the leather or the integrity of the elastic gore panels.
