FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for hiking or outdoor activities?

These shoes are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday use on dry surfaces. They are not intended for strenuous outdoor activities or rugged terrain where specialized footwear would be required.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is recommended to keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to protect the suede and leather from dust and damage.

What does '3-Eye Lug' mean?

The '3-Eye Lug' refers to the classic boat shoe design featuring three pairs of eyelets for the lacing system, and a durable lug sole designed for traction.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet weather as water can damage the material and cause staining. If they do get wet, ensure they are dried properly as described in the care instructions.

What is the benefit of supporting responsible leather manufacturing?

By purchasing this product, you are supporting responsible manufacturing of leather through the Leather Working Group, which promotes environmental best practices within the leather industry.

How do I clean the interior of the shoe?

The interior is lined with leather. For light cleaning, you can use a slightly damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning or odor control, consider using a leather cleaner or deodorizing spray designed for footwear.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner according to the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel slightly stiff on first wear.

This is normal for new leather and suede. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Consider wearing them with thicker socks during the break-in period.

Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied.

Ensure the rawhide laces are not overly worn or frayed. You can try re-tying them using a double knot for extra security, or replace them with new rawhide laces if they are damaged.

Water spots on suede.

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, a suede eraser or specialized cleaner may be needed.

Care:

  • Suede Care: Suede is a delicate material. Use a suede brush regularly to remove surface dirt and to restore the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive water. If they do get wet, stuff them with paper and allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
  • Leather Care: The leather accents can be maintained with a leather conditioner if needed, but generally require minimal upkeep beyond dusting.
  • Laces: Keep rawhide laces clean and dry. If they become soiled, they can be gently cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air-dried.
