FAQs

How do I determine my size?

Paraboot sizes can differ. Refer to the size chart or try them on to ensure a comfortable fit. Consider the UK sizing for the most accurate fit.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather every few months, or more frequently if you wear the shoes often or live in a dry climate.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The rubber sole offers some water resistance, but it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Consider applying a leather protectant spray.

What kind of socks should I wear?

Choose socks that complement the shoe's style and the weather. Thicker socks are good for colder months, while thinner socks work well in warmer weather.

How do I clean the rubber sole?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to clean the rubber sole. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.

Are the shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the full leather lining and comfortable construction make these shoes suitable for all-day wear once broken in.

Where are Paraboot shoes made?

Paraboot shoes are made in France, reflecting their commitment to quality craftsmanship.

Apply a leather conditioner to moisturize and protect the leather. Use a specialized leather cream.
