Care Instructions

  • Cleaning: For proper cleaning, use a brush to remove dust and dirt. Remove laces before cleaning. Use specialized boot cleaner, saddle soap, or a mild dishwashing soap with lukewarm water. Do not use bar soap or detergents.
  • Drying: Dry using natural methods (air dry) and keep them out of direct sunlight. Place the boots upside-down to facilitate drying. Stuff a sheet or two of newspaper into each boot to absorb moisture; change the paper hourly.
  • Mold: If you see any mold on your boots, brush with a mixture of 80% water and 20% vinegar.
  • Leather Care: Over time, the use of leather conditioners may provide increased water repellency and prevent cracking and drying of the leather.
  • Storage: Store boots in a place where temperatures are stable and normal. Avoid attics, garages, car trunks, or unventilated spaces. Never put boots in a washing machine.
