FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they are constructed with waterproof leather and a rubber mudguard to keep your feet dry in rain and wet conditions.
Can I wear these in deep snow?
While they are water-resistant, they are designed primarily for city commuting and light outdoor use, not as specialized deep-snow trekking boots.
How do I determine my size?
The sizes listed are in UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your standard sneaker size for the best fit.
Do I need to treat the leather before my first wear?
While ready to wear out of the box, applying a quality leather protector can provide an extra layer of defense against initial stains.
Is the sole slip-resistant?
The rubber outsole provides standard traction suitable for typical urban surfaces, but exercise caution on extremely icy or polished surfaces.
How should I store them during summer?
Clean them thoroughly, stuff them with paper to maintain shape, and store them in a dry, ventilated area.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Wear them for short periods around the house with thick socks to help the leather mold to your foot shape.
Water appears to soak into the leather surface
The protective DWR coating may have worn off; clean the boots and apply a fresh layer of leather-safe waterproof spray.
Elastic gore panels are losing tension
Avoid over-stretching when pulling them on; always use a shoehorn to preserve the integrity of the elastic panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last for seasons to come, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe away mud and surface dirt using a damp cloth after every use. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Re-apply a waterproof spray specifically designed for leather to maintain the boot's moisture-resistant properties.
- Fitment: These are unisex boots; ensure you check your exact UK size. If you plan to wear thick winter socks, consider if your standard size allows for the extra volume.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or damp, enclosed spaces for extended periods to prevent material degradation.
