FAQs

What material are the Barbour Rothley Boat Shoes made of?

The upper of the Barbour Rothley Boat Shoes is made from 100% suede. The lining is composed of 65% polyurethane and 35% polyester.

How should I clean these suede shoes?

To clean, remove dirt with a suede brush. Avoid using water excessively. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser or specialized cleaner might be needed. Always test cleaning products on a small, hidden area first.

Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?

No, due to their suede construction, these shoes are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to rain or excessive moisture can damage the material and cause discoloration.

What is the main benefit of the Rothley Boat Shoes?

Their main benefit is their easy slip-on design, making them ideal for quick wear, holidays, or daily commutes, combined with a stylish, classic appearance.

Can I wear these shoes for formal events?

No, the Barbour Rothley Boat Shoes have a casual design and are best suited for informal occasions, pairing well with jeans, shorts, or chinos.

What are the lining materials?

The lining is made from a blend of 65% polyurethane and 35% polyester.

How can I ensure a good fit?

These shoes are designed for a standard fit. If they feel a little snug initially, wearing them with socks for a short period can help them stretch slightly to conform to your foot shape.

Troubleshooting

Suede scuff marks or stains

Gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser or a clean pencil eraser. For tougher stains, use a suede brush and consider a specialized suede cleaner. Always brush in one direction after cleaning.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Suede can stretch slightly over time. Wear them with thick socks around the house for a short period to help them mold to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort.

Water damage or discoloration

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Suede protector sprays can help prevent future water damage. Significant water damage may require professional cleaning.
