FAQs
Where are these boots manufactured?
These Rick Owens boots are proudly made in Italy, reflecting a commitment to high-quality craftsmanship.
Do I need to treat the leather before my first wear?
It is highly recommended to apply a leather protector spray to guard against initial dirt and moisture exposure.
How should I store these boots?
Store them in a cool, dry place with cedar shoe trees inserted to help maintain their shape and manage moisture.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The Chelsea silhouette is generally accommodating, but the leather will stretch slightly over time to mold to your specific foot shape.
Can the rubber sole be replaced?
Yes, a professional cobbler can resole these boots once the rubber sole eventually wears down through heavy use.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff on the first few wears
This is normal for premium leather; wear them for short periods around the house to allow the material to soften to your foot shape.
Scuffs appearing on the leather surface
Use a high-quality black shoe cream or wax polish to buff out minor scuffs and restore the leather's natural luster.
Elastic side panels losing tension
Avoid overstretching the panels by using a shoe horn during entry; if the elastic shows signs of wear, a professional cobbler can replace the gussets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are premium leather boots, initial care is essential. Upon first wear, consider using a high-quality leather protector spray to guard against moisture and dirt. To maintain their shape, it is recommended to use wooden cedar shoe trees whenever the boots are not in use; this absorbs excess moisture and keeps the leather from creasing excessively. For cleaning, use a soft, lint-free cloth to remove surface dust, followed by a matching black leather cream periodically to restore moisture and color depth. Ensure the boots are stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature fading or cracking of the leather.
