FAQs

What type of leather is used in the Timberland Crafted Boat Shoe?

The shoes are made with Premium Timberland® leather, known for its durability and quality.

How do I adjust the fit of the shoes?

The shoes feature a 360° functional rawhide lacing system. You can adjust the laces around the entire shoe to fine-tune and secure the fit.

Is this shoe suitable for wet conditions?

The Vibram rubber outsole provides good traction, but the leather upper is not inherently waterproof. It's advisable to use a waterproofing spray for added protection against moisture.

What is the main advantage of the handsewn construction?

Handsewn construction contributes to the shoe's durability and classic aesthetic, ensuring a robust build.

How often should I condition the leather?

The frequency depends on usage and climate, but conditioning every few months or whenever the leather appears dry is generally recommended.

Can I wear these shoes for formal occasions?

These are designed as casual footwear. While they offer a classic style, they are best suited for informal events and daily wear.

What UK size is this specific guide for?

This guide is specifically for the Timberland - Crafted Boat Shoe in Brown, UK Size 12.5.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape. Using thicker socks during the break-in period can also help.

Laces are difficult to adjust or don't stay tied.

Ensure the rawhide laces are properly threaded through all eyelets. If they are slippery, try tying a double knot. Check if the laces are worn out and consider replacing them if necessary.

Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces.

Ensure the Vibram rubber outsole is clean and free from mud, sand, or debris. If the outsole appears excessively worn, it may be time to consider replacement.

Leather shows signs of drying or cracking.

Apply a good quality leather conditioner regularly. Ensure the shoes are not stored in excessively dry or hot conditions.
