FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

The Barbour Ingrid boots are not inherently waterproof, especially the suede sections. While the tracked rubber sole offers protection from ground moisture, we recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to protect them from rain and damp conditions.

How do I choose the right size?

These boots are listed in UK adult foot sizes. We recommend measuring your foot and comparing it to a standard UK sizing chart. Keep in mind that leather and suede may stretch slightly over time.

Can I wear these in winter?

Yes, they can be worn in winter. The leather and suede provide some insulation. However, they are not designed for extreme cold or heavy snow. For icy conditions, exercise caution due to potential slipperiness. Consider wearing warm socks.

How do I clean the suede panels?

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner should be used, following the product instructions carefully. Always allow suede to dry naturally if it gets wet.

Is the zip functional?

Yes, the outer leg zip is fully functional and designed to make putting on and taking off the boots easy. It also features a stylish tassel pull.

Will the boots stretch?

The premium leather and suede materials will naturally soften and may stretch slightly and conform to your foot and leg shape over time with wear, leading to a more customized and comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Allow for a break-in period; leather and suede will soften and mold to your foot and leg. If discomfort persists, consider wearing thinner socks or consulting a shoe specialist for stretching options. Ensure the correct size has been purchased.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate

Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., zipper wax or a graphite pencil lead) along the teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down. Ensure there's no fabric caught in the zipper mechanism.

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Ensure you've applied a suede protector to prevent future issues.

Leather appears dry or has minor scuffs

Clean the leather, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner or polish. For light scuffs, gentle buffing with a soft cloth after conditioning can help.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

While the tracked rubber sole offers good traction, extremely wet or icy surfaces can still be challenging. Walk cautiously. Consider professional resoling with a more aggressive tread if consistently encountering very slippery conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the boots from their packaging. Check for any protective inserts and remove them.
  2. First Fit: Unzip the outer leg zipper completely. Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel settles comfortably. Zip up the boot, making sure it closes without excessive strain.
  3. Break-in Period: Like all high-quality leather footwear, these boots may require a short break-in period to fully conform to the shape of your legs and feet. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time.

Compatibility

  • Apparel: These boots pair exceptionally well with skinny jeans, leggings, skirts, and dresses. For a classic equestrian look, wear them with tailored trousers or breeches.
  • Occasions: Suitable for casual wear, country walks, equestrian events, smart-casual gatherings, and adding a refined touch to everyday outfits.
  • Weather: Best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. While the rubber sole offers traction, the leather and especially the suede are not inherently waterproof and should be treated for optimal protection in wet weather.

Care

Maintaining the Barbour Ingrid boots will ensure their longevity and appearance.

  1. Cleaning:
  • Leather Sections: Wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a specialized leather cleaner for tougher marks.
  • Suede Sections: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For stains, a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Avoid excessive rubbing.
  • Sole: Wipe the tracked rubber sole with a damp cloth.
  1. Conditioning (Leather): Periodically apply a high-quality leather conditioner to the leather sections to keep them supple and prevent cracking.
  2. Protection (Suede): Apply a suitable water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before first wear and reapply periodically.
  3. Drying: If boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store boots upright in a cool, dry place, ideally using boot trees or stuffing with paper to maintain their shaft shape. Keep them away from direct sunlight.
