FAQs
Are these boots true to size?
Yes, the Giacomo series follows a regular fit. If you typically wear a specific UK size, that size should be appropriate for this model.
Can I wear these in the rain?
They are made of leather and are not waterproof. Light moisture is generally acceptable, but they should be dried immediately and should not be submerged in puddles.
What is the benefit of Blake stitching?
Blake stitching connects the sole directly to the upper, which creates a thinner, more flexible sole that is comfortable right out of the box.
How often should I polish my boots?
It is recommended to polish your boots every 5-10 wears or whenever the leather appears dull or shows visible dry patches.
Do I need to spray these with a protector?
While not required, a light application of a water-repellent leather protector can help shield the material from accidental liquid spills.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight upon first wear
Leather will naturally soften and stretch to your foot shape over time; try wearing them for short periods at home with thick socks to break them in.
Leather surface shows light scuffs
Use a matching brown shoe cream or wax polish to buff out minor scuffs and restore the leather's natural luster.
Elastic side panels feel stiff
The elastic will loosen with repeated use; ensure you are utilizing the canvas pull loop to prevent excessive tension on the elastic fabric during entry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these are leather boots, they do not require complex setup, but they do require care to ensure longevity. Upon first wear, use a shoe horn to avoid stretching the heel counter. To maintain the leather, clean any surface dust with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner every few months to prevent the material from drying out or cracking. If the boots become wet, allow them to air dry slowly at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the leather. Ensure you use cedar shoe trees when not wearing the boots; this helps maintain their shape and wicks away residual moisture.
