FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The high-quality leather and rubber construction offer excellent protection against damp conditions, but they are not strictly waterproof.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing; choose your regular size, keeping in mind that thicker socks may require slightly more room.
What is the best way to store them?
Store in a cool, dry place and use cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain the shape of the leather.
Can I replace the insoles?
The included leather insoles are designed for comfort, but they can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
How long does it take to break these in?
Break-in time varies, but typically takes about one to two weeks of regular wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first wear
This is normal for premium leather. Wear them in short intervals inside your home to gradually stretch the leather before prolonged outdoor use.
Leather surface appearing dull
Clean the surface with a soft brush and apply a matching black leather polish or conditioner to restore shine and hydration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Paraboot Michael shoes, proper care is essential. Upon first wear, expect the leather to feel firm; we recommend wearing them for short periods indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot. For maintenance, keep the leather clean by wiping away dust with a dry cloth and applying a high-quality leather cream or wax periodically to maintain suppleness and water resistance. Store your shoes with wooden shoe trees when not in use to help maintain their shape and manage internal moisture. The Michael is compatible with a wide range of adult sizes, typically fitting true to size, though it is always best to ensure your UK sizing corresponds to your specific needs.
