FAQs

Can these boots be resoled?

Yes, thanks to their Goodyear Welted construction, these boots can be repaired and resoled by a professional cobbler.

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather is durable and protective, they are not classified as waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray for additional moisture resistance.

How should I clean the grained leather?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth for surface grime. Follow up with a leather-specific cream to maintain moisture.

Do these boots run true to size?

The boots generally fit true to standard UK sizing. If you prefer to wear thicker winter socks, consider if you need a half-size larger.

What is the best way to store the boots?

Store them in a cool, dry place using cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain the shape of the leather.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff on the first wear

This is normal for high-quality leather. Wear them around the house for short periods or use a leather conditioner to help soften the fibers.

Accumulation of salt or water spots

Clean gently with a slightly damp cloth, allow to dry away from direct heat, and apply a neutral leather conditioner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Jones Bootmaker Barking Boots last for years, proper care is essential. Upon first wear, we recommend wearing them for shorter periods indoors to allow the leather and sole to soften. To maintain the appearance of the grained leather, wipe away dirt with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out and cracking. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally if they become damp—avoid placing them directly against radiators or heat sources, as this can damage the leather. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees to help the boots retain their structural shape.
