FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

No, the suede and leather materials are not inherently waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing these boots in wet conditions and to use a suede protector spray for added resistance.

What is the heel height?

The stacked leather wrapped heel height is approximately 13mm (about 0.5 inches).

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are non-removable. While they are designed for comfort, if you require specific orthotic support, you may need to consider inserts that can fit over the existing insole, depending on space.

How should I clean the suede uppers?

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, applied according to the product's instructions. Always test cleaning products on a small, inconspicuous area first.

What is the shaft height of the boot?

The boot shaft height is approximately 10cm (about 3.9 inches).

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The product description does not specify width options. Standard width is assumed. If you have wider feet, it may be beneficial to try them on in person if possible.

What makes the insoles 'eco-friendly'?

The OrthoLite Eco X40 Hybrid insoles are made with 32% eco content, including 15% waste foam, 5% recycled content, and 12% bio-oils, contributing to a reduced environmental impact.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a bit of clear wax to the zipper teeth to help it slide more smoothly. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Suede appears discolored or has water spots

Allow the boots to air dry completely away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to gently buff the affected area and lift the nap. For persistent stains, consult a professional suede cleaner.

Boots feel uncomfortable after a few hours

The OrthoLite insoles provide cushioning, but individual foot anatomy varies. Consider using a thin, supportive insert if additional arch support is needed, provided it fits comfortably within the boot.

Material shows signs of wear

Regularly clean and condition the suede and leather as per care instructions. Use a suede protector spray to guard against future damage.

  • Leather Care: Wipe leather components with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Condition leather periodically to prevent drying and cracking.
