FAQs

How should I clean and care for the mixed materials?
Info needed: Always refer to Barbour's specific care instructions. Generally, use separate, specialized cleaners and conditioners for the leather and suede sections. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive wetting.
What is the sole height of these boots?
The Barbour Ingrid Knee-High Boots have a sole height of 4 CM.
Do these boots have a wide calf fit?
Info needed: Calf circumference details are not provided. These boots feature an outer leg zip fastening designed for ease of wear, but calf fit can vary. Consider your personal measurements and Barbour's sizing guidance if available.
Are these suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the tracked rubber sole and textile lining are designed for comfort and durability, making them suitable for everyday use and various casual to smart-casual occasions, especially after a break-in period.
What type of closure do these boots have?
They feature an outer leg zip fastening, complete with a logo zip pull for easy and secure closure.
Can I replace the tassel on the zip?
While not explicitly stated, the tassel is a decorative element. Info needed: For replacement parts or specific repair advice, it's best to contact Barbour customer service directly.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Leather and suede materials often require a break-in period. Wear your boots for shorter durations at first, gradually increasing wear time to allow them to conform to the shape of your feet and legs.
Difficulty cleaning mixed leather and suede materials
Info needed: Consult Barbour's specific care instructions first. Generally, use separate, specialized cleaning products for leather and suede. Use a soft cloth with leather cleaner for the leather parts and a dedicated suede brush or eraser for the suede sections. Avoid cross-contamination of products.
Zippers are sticking or difficult to move
Check the zipper teeth for any debris (dirt, lint, fabric). Clean carefully with a small brush or toothpick. If still stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant, wax (like beeswax), or even a graphite pencil lead along the teeth, avoiding contact with suede if possible.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction to lift dirt and restore its texture. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used carefully. Avoid excessive rubbing which can damage the material.
Lack of shine or dryness on leather sections
After cleaning, apply a good quality leather conditioner using a soft cloth, then buff gently to restore the leather's natural luster and keep it supple.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Your Barbour Ingrid Boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Simply unzip the outer leg fastening, slide your foot in, and zip up. Ensure a comfortable fit around your calf.
Compatibility
These boots are a versatile addition to many wardrobes. They pair well with:
- Dresses and Skirts: Showcase the knee-high silhouette by wearing them with midi or maxi dresses and skirts.
- Trousers: Tuck in slim-fit trousers or jeans to highlight the boot's design, or wear under wider-leg trousers for a more subtle look.
- Leggings and Tights: Ideal for creating a sleek and cohesive outfit.
The dark brown color complements a wide range of color palettes, from earthy tones to vibrant hues.
Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the beauty and longevity of your Barbour Ingrid Boots, especially given their mixed leather and suede construction.
- Cleaning: Info needed: Always refer to Barbour's specific care recommendations. Generally, for the leather sections, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. For the suede sections, use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid using the same cleaning products on both materials.
- Conditioning: Regularly condition the leather sections with a suitable leather conditioner to keep them supple and prevent cracking. Suede typically does not require conditioning but benefits from protection.
- Protection: Info needed: Apply a high-quality weather-proofing spray specifically designed for mixed leather and suede to help protect against water and stains. Reapply periodically, especially before exposure to wet conditions.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Use boot shapers to help maintain their knee-high form and prevent creasing.
- Drying: If your boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources, which can damage the materials.
