FAQs

What material is the Base London Portland boot made of?

The boots are crafted with premium leather uppers, a leather and textile lining, and a TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) sole.

Are these boots suitable for wet weather?

The boots have a rubber sole for grip, but the leather uppers are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Using a waterproofing spray can offer some protection.

How do I clean and maintain the leather?

Clean with a damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner regularly to keep the leather in good condition. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the heel height of these boots?

The heel height is 35mm.

Is the fit true to size?

The boots are designed with a standard fitting. It is recommended to try them on if possible, especially if you have wider feet, as they may not accommodate very broad feet comfortably.

Can I wear these boots for formal occasions?

The Portland Chelsea Boot offers a smart-casual aesthetic. They are well-suited for less formal office environments or smart-casual social events, but may not be appropriate for very formal settings.

What is the purpose of the Ortholite insole?

The Ortholite insole is designed to provide enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, contributing to overall comfort during wear.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the boots are new, wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks for a snugger fit or thinner socks if they feel too constrictive. If discomfort persists, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a good quality leather conditioner according to the product's instructions. Regular conditioning will restore moisture and shine to the leather.

Difficulty pulling boots on

Utilize the robust nylon pull tab. Ensure the elasticated gusset is fully stretched as you slide your foot in. If the fit is very snug, try wearing thinner socks.

Sole showing signs of wear

For minor wear, a cobbler may be able to repair or resole the boots. Monitor wear and tear on the rubber studded sole to ensure continued grip and safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These boots require no specific setup. They are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility:

The Portland Chelsea Boot is designed for adult males and fits a standard width. They pair well with a variety of outfits, including jeans, chinos, and casual trousers.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Conditioning: Apply a quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking.
  • Protection: Consider using a waterproof spray suitable for leather to provide a layer of protection against moisture and stains, especially in damp conditions.
  • Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
