Timberland - Slip-On Classic Boat Shoe - Red - UK 4

These shoes are constructed with leather and designed for general wear. While the siped outsole offers enhanced traction on wet surfaces, they are not specifically waterproof.

ReBOTL™ fabric is a material developed by Timberland that contains at least 50% recycled PET plastic, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.

It is recommended to consult the Timberland size chart, as sizing can vary between brands. Trying them on indoors on a carpeted surface can help confirm fit without causing wear.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, cushioning, and construction of the shoe.

Siping refers to the small slits cut into the rubber of the outsole. These slits increase the surface area and create more biting edges, which helps to improve grip and traction, especially on wet surfaces.

Purchasing products from Leather Working Group certified tanneries supports environmental best practices in leather manufacturing, including energy usage, waste management, and water treatment.

Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. If the discomfort persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe style is not suitable for your foot shape.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free of mud, sand, or debris that could impede the siping. Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth.

Apply a leather conditioner or appropriate shoe cream to moisturize and protect the leather. For scuffs, use a matching color polish or a leather eraser.
