FAQs

Are these boots suitable for snow?

While the boots are waterproof and offer good grip, they are designed primarily for wet weather and exploration rather than deep snow conditions. For heavy snow, insulated winter boots might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the waxed leather-effect material?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always allow to air dry.

What makes these boots breathable?

The boots feature Geox's patented breathable technology, which includes a special membrane in the sole and construction that allows moisture vapor to escape from the inside of the boot while preventing water from entering from the outside.

Can these boots be worn in warmer weather?

The breathable technology helps manage moisture, making them comfortable for extended wear. However, they are primarily designed for outdoor exploration in potentially wet or cooler conditions. In very hot weather, other footwear might be preferred.

What is the benefit of the double rip-tape closure?

The double rip-tape closure allows for a more secure and customizable fit around both the foot and the ankle, making them easy for children to fasten themselves while ensuring the boot stays firmly in place during activity.

How do I check if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a little room for movement at the toe (about a finger's width) when the child is standing. The boot should feel snug but not tight around the foot and ankle, with the rip-tape straps fastening comfortably.

What is the material of the sole?

The sole is made of lightweight rubber, designed to provide excellent grip and flexibility for a steady, comfortable gait.

Troubleshooting

Boots seem to leak or are not waterproof.

Ensure all seams are intact and the rip-tape closure is securely fastened. Check for any visible damage to the material or sole. For continued issues, reapply a suitable waterproofing spray after cleaning and drying.

Child complains of discomfort or poor fit.

Re-adjust the double rip-tape straps to ensure an even and secure fit without being too tight. Verify that the correct size has been selected; consider using the insole as a foot measurement guide if available. Ensure socks are not bunching inside.

Inner material feels damp after wear.

This can be normal moisture from the foot. Ensure the boots are allowed to air dry completely between wears. Do not store them while still damp. If excessive dampness persists, the breathable membrane might be compromised or overwhelmed by heavy perspiration.

Rip-tape closure is not holding securely.

Clean the hook and loop surfaces of the rip-tape gently with a stiff brush or comb to remove any trapped lint, dirt, or debris. Ensure the straps are aligned correctly when fastening.

Care:

  • Clean the nylon and leather-effect materials with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

  • Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources after cleaning or getting wet. Do not machine wash.
  • Periodically check the rip-tape for debris to ensure it functions correctly.
  • To maintain the water-repellent properties, consider using a specific footwear protector spray suitable for nylon and synthetic leather after thorough cleaning and drying.
