FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they are constructed with waterproof leather designed to keep feet dry during wet urban conditions.
Can these boots be worn in snow?
While they provide protection against slush and cold, they are not specifically insulated for heavy, sub-zero snow trekking.
Do I need to break these in?
Like most leather footwear, they may feel slightly stiff at first. We recommend wearing them for short periods initially to allow the leather to flex.
How do I choose the right size?
These boots typically follow standard adult sizing; since they are slip-ons, ensure they feel secure around the ankle without being constrictive.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the interior allows for the use of custom orthotics or replacement insoles if needed.
Troubleshooting
Difficult to pull on the boots
Use a shoehorn to help ease your heel past the elastic gore entry; the material will soften slightly with use.
Leather looks dull after wet conditions
Clean the boots thoroughly once dry and apply a leather-specific wax or cream to restore hydration and shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots are ready to wear immediately, but proper care will extend their lifespan. To clean, wipe down the leather with a damp cloth after exposure to mud. For the rubber mudguard, a stiff brush works well to remove debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners directly on the leather to maintain the waterproof finish. Since these are leather, it is recommended to apply a leather conditioner every few months to prevent cracking, especially if you frequently walk in salty or wet conditions.
