FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the Red Wing leather used?
Red Wing leather is crafted from U.S.-raised cattle hides with minimal imperfections, ensuring natural beauty and unmatched durability through time-honored techniques.

How do I care for the leather to maintain its appearance?
Regular cleaning with a damp cloth, followed by conditioning with a quality leather conditioner and occasional protection sprays, will help maintain the leather's appearance and longevity.
Can I expect minor imperfections on my boots?
Yes, due to the handmade nature of the shoes, minor imperfections may be present and are considered a normal part of the craftsmanship, contributing to their unique character.
What makes the sole design practical?
The shallow lug pattern is designed to minimize the pickup of mud and debris, keeping the boots cleaner during everyday use.

Troubleshooting
Stiff leather upon first wear
Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Using a leather conditioner can also help soften the material over time.
Scuffs and scratches on the leather
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a leather repair balm or cream matching the boot color.
Slight color variations
This is normal for natural leather. Consistent application of leather conditioner and polish will help to even out the color over time.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
The shallow lug pattern provides grip, but on extremely smooth or wet surfaces, caution may be advised. A light roughening of the sole with fine-grit sandpaper can sometimes improve traction.
