Hush Puppies Maddy - Black - Size UK 8

No, the Maddy Boots feature a water-resistant real suede upper, meaning they are treated to repel light moisture and splashes. They are not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy rain or prolonged submersion.

These boots are offered in standard UK women's sizing and feature a wider fit. If you typically wear a half size, consider sizing down if you prefer a snugger fit, or up if you plan to wear thick socks. (Info needed: Specific sizing chart or recommendation for half sizes if available).

For routine cleaning, use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser or professional suede cleaner is recommended. Always allow mud or dirt to dry completely before brushing. Do not use water or harsh chemicals.

The Maddy Boots feature a cosy fleece (faux fur) lining for warmth and comfort.

While the fleece lining offers warmth and the water-resistant upper provides some protection, these boots are not insulated or fully waterproof for heavy snow or icy conditions. They are best suited for cooler, dry to mildly damp weather.

The outsole is made from TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), providing durability, flexibility, and good traction.

Yes, the zip closure is designed for durability and ease of use. Regular cleaning and occasional lubrication (as detailed in the care section) can help maintain its smooth operation.

While designed for a wider fit, a short break-in period (a few wears) may be needed for the materials to fully conform to your foot. The elastic gusset will also offer more 'give' over time. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one direction to even out the texture. For light scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective.

Allow the boots to air dry completely if they get wet. Once dry, use a suede brush to gently rub the affected area. For tougher stains, a professional suede cleaner may be required. Always apply a water and stain protector regularly to prevent future issues.

First, check for any debris caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, gently rub a graphite pencil lead along the teeth of the zipper, or use a specific zip lubricant. Move the zipper up and down slowly to distribute the lubricant.

Gently brush the faux fur lining with a soft brush to fluff it up. If it's washable (Info needed: Check care label if available for specific washing instructions for lining), hand washing with mild detergent and air drying could refresh it, but typically, spot cleaning is recommended for boot linings.
