FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

The CAT Colorado Boots feature a durable rubber outsole and full-grain leather upper which offer some resistance to moisture. However, they are not explicitly designed as waterproof and may not keep your feet dry in heavy rain or standing water. For increased water resistance, you can apply a leather waterproofing spray.

How do I clean the full-grain leather?

To clean, gently wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner, following the product instructions. Always let them air dry completely and finish with a leather conditioner to moisturize the material.

What is the best way to break in these boots?

Wear your new boots for short periods, gradually increasing the duration each day. This allows the leather to soften and conform to the shape of your feet naturally. Pairing them with thick socks can also help prevent discomfort during the break-in phase.

Do these boots run true to size?

Generally, CAT boots tend to run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size, especially if you plan to wear thick socks.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces are fully replaceable. You can easily swap them out for new ones if they become worn or if you wish to customize the look of your boots. Measure the original laces to ensure you get the correct length for replacements.

What is EVA foam?

EVA stands for Ethylene-vinyl acetate. It is a soft, resilient, and lightweight foam material commonly used in footwear for cushioning and shock absorption. The soft EVA foam footbed in these boots provides long-lasting comfort and support.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable during initial wear.

This is common with new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. Using a quality leather conditioner can also help soften the material over time.

Leather appears dry or is starting to crack.

The leather needs conditioning. Clean the boots thoroughly and then apply a generous amount of high-quality leather conditioner. Regular conditioning every few months will prevent dryness and maintain the leather's suppleness.

Boots develop an unpleasant odor.

Remove the insoles (if removable) and allow the boots to air out completely in a well-ventilated area. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the boots overnight to absorb odors.

Loss of traction on wet or slippery surfaces.

Inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear or damage to the tread. Ensure the tread is clean of mud, debris, or oil. If the outsole is significantly worn, consider professional resoling if available, or assess if new footwear is needed for safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Setting up your CAT Colorado Boots is straightforward:

  1. Lacing: Utilize the classic lace-up closure to secure the boots firmly. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit around your foot and ankle.
  2. Initial Wear: Wear your boots for shorter periods initially to allow the leather to conform to your feet, facilitating a comfortable break-in period.

Compatibility

These boots are designed as versatile footwear, compatible with a wide range of casual and workwear outfits. Their beige color and classic style make them easy to pair with jeans, chinos, cargo pants, and various casual tops and jackets.

Care

Proper care will significantly extend the life and appearance of your full-grain leather boots:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe off dirt and debris with a damp cloth after each use. For tougher dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions.
  2. Conditioning: Apply a quality leather conditioner every few months, or more frequently if worn in dry conditions, to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Drying: If your boots get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  5. Outsole Care: Regularly check the rubber outsole for embedded debris and clean the tread to maintain optimal traction.
