FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
These boots are made from natural leather and are water-resistant to a degree, but not fully waterproof. For protection in wet conditions, it is recommended to use a leather waterproofing spray.
How do I choose the correct UK size?
It is recommended to consult the Jones Bootmaker size guide available on their website. If possible, try on the boots in-store to ensure a proper fit, as sizing can vary slightly between models.
What does 'Leather Working Group-certified' mean?
This certification indicates that the leather used in the boots has been produced in a tannery that adheres to environmental best practices, focusing on responsible water usage, energy consumption, and waste management.
Can I wear these boots in all seasons?
These boots are versatile and suitable for most seasons. However, due to the natural leather, they are best suited for dry to mildly damp weather. For extreme heat or cold, consider weather-appropriate footwear.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every 3-6 months, or whenever the leather appears dry. The frequency can depend on the climate and how often you wear the boots.
What is the return policy if they don't fit?
Please refer to the retailer's or Jones Bootmaker's official return policy for details on exchanges and returns for items that do not fit correctly.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Natural leather requires a break-in period. Wear the boots for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Using a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Leather shows minor scuffs or scratches.
Light scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, apply a matching color leather polish or cream, following the product's instructions.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
New soles can sometimes be slick. Walking on rougher surfaces can help 'break in' the soles. If slipperiness persists, consider applying a sole protector or consulting a cobbler.
Pull-on tab feels loose.
Ensure you are pulling evenly on the tab when putting on the boots. If the tab stitching appears to be failing, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.
