FAQs
How do I clean the oily leather?
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth for dust. For dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Periodically condition with a product for oiled leather.
Will the leather color change over time?
Yes, the premium oily leather is designed to develop a unique patina as it ages, reflecting wear and exposure, which enhances its character.
Are these boots waterproof?
The oily leather offers some natural water resistance, but for full waterproofing, it is recommended to apply a suitable waterproofing treatment designed for oiled leather.
What is the benefit of the internal zip closure?
The internal zip allows for quick and convenient on-and-off, saving time and effort compared to traditional lacing systems.
How should I store these boots when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe bag can help protect the leather finish.

Can I replace the laces?

Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially
Wear the boots for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. You can also use a leather conditioner to help soften the material.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure no debris is obstructing the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Leather appears dry or dull
