FAQs
What material are these boots made from?
These Dune London Paicey ankle boots are crafted from fine black leather.
What kind of heel do these boots have?
They feature an elegant stacked heel, designed for both style and comfort.
Are these boots suitable for all-day wear?
While comfort is a key feature due to the stacked heel and quality leather, 'all-day wear' is subjective. They are designed for versatile casual styling and comfortable daily use.
How do I clean these leather boots?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth for light dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and regularly condition the leather to maintain its suppleness.
Can I wear these boots in the rain?
Leather is not naturally waterproof. It is recommended to apply a water and stain protector spray designed for leather and avoid heavy rain or standing water to protect the material.
What is the 'DD'-interlocked branded hardware?
The 'DD'-interlocked branded hardware refers to Dune London's signature logo detailing found on the back and side zip pulls, adding a distinctive touch to the boots.
Troubleshooting
Zippers feel stiff or sticky
Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., beeswax, graphite pencil lead, or a specialized zipper wax) to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down a few times.
Leather appears dull or dry
Clean the boots thoroughly and then apply a high-quality leather conditioner. Massage it into the leather using a soft cloth, then buff with a clean cloth for a renewed luster.
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Leather can stretch over time. Wear the boots for short periods around the house with thick socks. For more persistent tightness, consider using a shoe stretcher or taking them to a professional cobbler for stretching.
Minor scuffs or scratches on the leather
For black leather, a small amount of matching shoe polish can often cover minor scuffs. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and buff. For deeper scratches, professional repair may be needed.

Your Dune London Paicey ankle boots require no complex setup. Simply unbox and wear. For initial wear, consider wearing them around your home for a short period to allow the leather to begin conforming to your foot shape.
Compatibility
These boots are highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of clothing styles:
- Bottoms: Ideal with jeans (skinny, straight-leg, bootcut), trousers, leggings, and tights.
- Dresses & Skirts: Perfect with midi dresses, A-line skirts, pencil skirts, and flowing maxi skirts.
- Occasions: Suitable for daily wear, office, casual outings, evening events, and travel.
Care
Proper care is crucial to preserve the beauty and extend the life of your leather boots:
- Cleaning: Wipe off dirt and dust regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every 1-2 months (or as needed based on use) to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. Apply with a clean cloth and buff gently.
- Polishing: For black leather, use a black shoe polish to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Apply sparingly and buff to a shine.
- Protection: Before first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a water and stain protector spray designed for leather to guard against the elements.
- Drying: If boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture, or stuff them with tissue paper. Keep them in their original dust bag or a breathable fabric bag to protect against dust and scratches.
