FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
These boots are designed for general daily wear; while they are durable, they are not specifically rated as waterproof.
How do I determine my size?

Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these suitable for cold weather?
They are suitable for general seasonal use, but for extreme winter conditions, consider a dedicated insulated model.
How often should I clean them?
It is best to wipe them down whenever they become visibly dusty or muddy to prevent debris from settling into the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too stiff when new
Wear them for short periods around the house to break in the material before committing to full-day use.
Laces coming undone
Double-knot the laces or ensure they are pulled tight across the eyelets to maintain consistent tension.
Surface marks on the black fabric
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt or a damp microfiber cloth for stubborn surface spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your boots, ensure you lace them fully to allow the high-top structure to provide the intended support. Compatibility is high across most adult casual wardrobes due to the neutral black colorway. For care, keep the exterior clean by wiping away dust and dirt with a damp cloth after use. If the boots get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the materials over time. Using a professional suede or canvas cleaner depending on the specific upper material will help maintain the deep black finish for longer.
