FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The CAT Grader Chukka is made from genuine suede, which is water-resistant when treated, but it is not fully waterproof.
Can I wear these for heavy construction work?
No, these boots are designed for casual, everyday wear and do not feature safety toes or puncture-resistant soles required for heavy-duty work.
How do I keep the interior fresh?
The boots feature an antimicrobial microfiber liner that resists odors; however, you can further freshen them by allowing them to air out for 24 hours after a full day of wear.
What is the best way to clean the suede?
Always start with a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. Avoid soaking the suede in water.
Are these boots true to size?
The CAT Grader Chukka generally fits true to size for standard adult UK sizing; however, you may want to wear medium-weight socks for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
Remove the insoles to air them out or consider replacing them with aftermarket comfort inserts if necessary.
Boots develop salt stains
Gently clean the affected area with a mixture of water and a small amount of white vinegar using a cloth, then let air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your CAT Grader Chukka boots remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear.
- Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt or dried mud. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede eraser.
- Storage: Keep boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Maintenance: If the boots become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or crack.
