FAQs

What material is the LeMieux Boot and Hat Bag made from?

The bag is constructed from a strong, durable, and waterproof nylon outer and base.

Can I fit two pairs of boots in this bag?

No, the bag is designed with a tall section for one pair of boots, separated by a padded divider, and a separate compartment for a hat.

How do I clean the bag?

You can wipe the bag clean with a damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use mild soap and water, then ensure it is completely dry before use or storage.

Are the boots kept completely dry inside?

The bag is made from waterproof nylon, offering protection from external moisture. However, if wet boots are placed inside, moisture can accumulate if not aired out. Ventilation helps mitigate this.

What are the dimensions of the boot section?

The tall boot section is approximately 70cm in height, designed to accommodate standard tall riding boots.

Can I carry the bag over my shoulder?

The bag features a comfort-grip carry handle. While not explicitly designed with a shoulder strap, the handle allows for comfortable hand transport.

Does the hat compartment have any padding?

The hat compartment is a separate zipped section and does not have specific internal padding, but it is designed to protect the hat from external knocks when used in conjunction with the padded boot divider.

Troubleshooting

Bag smells musty

Ensure boots and hat are dry before storing. Open the bag and allow it to air out in a well-ventilated area. Check that the ventilation panels are not blocked.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and work the zipper back and forth.

Waterproofing seems to be reduced

Inspect the fabric for any rips or tears. For minor wear, consider applying a fabric waterproofing spray suitable for nylon materials.

Padded divider is not sitting correctly

Remove the boots and hat, then reposition the padded divider to ensure it is flat and securely in place before reinserting your gear.
