Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Blake boots perform optimally, follow these steps:
- Break-in: Wear the boots around your home for several days before attempting long-distance hikes to allow the leather to mould to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: After each hike, remove dried mud with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth to wipe the leather clean. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can crack the leather.
- Maintenance: Periodically apply a leather-specific waterproofing treatment to maintain the water-resistant upper coating.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
