Extended Product Information
FAQs
Does the 2-year guarantee cover normal wear and tear?
The G2 manufacturer's guarantee specifically covers manufacturing defects and structural integrity under normal conditions.
Should I wear socks with these boat shoes?
These shoes are designed to be worn without socks, which is why the interior features anti-bacterial cushioning.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth and use a specialist leather cleaner or conditioner to maintain the finish.
Why do you suggest sizing down?
Because these shoes are intended for barefoot use, they are cut more generously than standard street shoes; sizing down ensures a tighter, more secure fit.
Are these shoes suitable for use on a boat?
Yes, they feature an enhanced grip sole designed specifically for stability on marine surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage while walking
This often indicates the size is slightly too large; try using a thin leather insole to reduce volume or consider a smaller size.
Leather feels stiff
Apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner to soften the fibers and wear them indoors for short periods to break them in.
Odour buildup
Although the insoles are anti-bacterial, ensure you allow the shoes to dry completely between wears by placing them in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes maintain their quality, apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and water-resistant. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack. Regarding sizing, because these are designed for barefoot wear, we recommend dropping down a size if you are between measurements to ensure a secure, slip-free experience.
