FAQs
How do I determine my correct size?
The boots run true to size. If you find yourself between sizes (e.g., a UK 7.5), we recommend choosing the smaller size (UK 7) for a snugger fit.
Can these boots be worn in wet weather?
While the rubber soles offer some protection, the distressed leather is not inherently waterproof. We recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to heavy rain or moisture to preserve the leather's condition. Consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for leather.
How do I maintain the distressed look?
The distressed effect is part of the design. Avoid over-conditioning or excessive polishing, which can obscure the texture. Use specialized products for distressed leather and apply them sparingly.
Are these boots suitable for extensive walking?
The boots feature rounded toes and raised rubber soles for comfort and grip, making them suitable for moderate walking and daily wear. For very long distances or strenuous activities, consider socks that provide additional cushioning.
What is the material of the sole?
The soles are made of raised rubber, providing durability and good traction.
How should I clean the distressed leather?
Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher marks, a dedicated leather cleaner for distressed finishes is recommended, applied carefully according to instructions.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
If you are between sizes and chose the smaller one, allow a short break-in period. If the tightness is significant, consider exchanging for a larger size if possible, or try using thicker socks for a snugger fit initially.
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a quality leather conditioner specifically designed for distressed leather. Follow the product's instructions carefully and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Difficulty pulling boots on
Ensure your feet are dry. Use the provided pull tabs on each side. If still difficult, a boot jack can be helpful.
Soles showing wear
The raised rubber soles are designed for durability. For significant wear, consult a professional cobbler for potential sole repair or replacement.
