FAQs
What type of leather is used for the upper?
The boots feature a Genuine Leather upper, providing a classic and durable finish.
How do I ensure a comfortable fit?
Adjust the laces using the Oxford lacing style to achieve your preferred tightness. The cushioned PU sock insole also contributes to comfort.
Are these boots suitable for wet weather?
While the TPR sole offers some traction, the leather upper is not inherently waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather waterproofing spray for added protection in damp conditions.
What is the best way to clean the boots?
Wipe with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner if necessary. Avoid submerging the boots in water.
Can I replace the insole?
The boots come with a cushioned PU sock insole. While not designed for easy replacement, a qualified cobbler may be able to assist if a different type of insert is desired.
What occasions are these boots best suited for?
Their classic chukka design makes them ideal for smart-casual to semi-formal events, easily transitioning from day to evening wear.
How durable is the TPR sole?
The TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) sole is known for its durability, offering lightweight wear, good traction, and resistance to abrasion.
Troubleshooting
Laces won't stay tied.
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot or consider replacing them with alternative laces that offer better grip.
Boots feel stiff initially.
Wear the boots for short periods indoors to gradually break them in. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Uneven wear on the sole.
Ensure you are walking with a natural gait. If the issue persists, consult a cobbler for inspection and potential resoling.
Leather shows scuffs or scratches.
Use a leather repair kit or polish that matches the boot color to buff out minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, professional repair may be needed.
