FAQs
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The ANDREW series is designed with a standard fit; if you typically require a wider fit, consider sizing up or testing the feel with different sock thicknesses.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede is a natural material that can be damaged by water, so it is best to wear them on dry days or apply a heavy-duty suede protector.
How should I store these when not in use?
Store them in a well-ventilated, dry place and use cedar or plastic shoe trees to maintain their structure.
What is the best way to clean them?
Use a dry suede brush for daily maintenance and a suede-specific eraser for targeted spot cleaning.
Do the boots need to be broken in?
While generally comfortable from the start, the suede will soften and mold more closely to your foot shape after a few wears.
Can I use leather polish on these?
No. Leather polish is intended for smooth leather and will ruin the nap and texture of the suede material.
Troubleshooting
Surface stains on the suede
Use a suede eraser to gently rub away the mark, then follow up by brushing the area to restore the texture.
Water spots after exposure to rain
Lightly dampen the entire surface of the shoe with a cloth and let it dry naturally to prevent uneven drying lines.
Loss of texture/nap
Use a specialized suede brush to lift the fibers and restore the soft, matte look of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ANDREW boots, treat them with a suede-specific protective spray before their first wear to repel moisture and dirt. For daily care, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove surface dust and restore the nap of the material. If the boots get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or crack. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees to help maintain their original shape.
