FAQs
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The boots have a softly rounded toe which offers some room, but they are designed with a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on before purchasing or check customer reviews regarding fit.
What is the best way to clean the leather?
Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a leather-specific cleaner and always test on a small, hidden area first. Allow to air dry naturally.
Can I wear these boots in the rain?
While the boots are made of quality leather, they are not waterproof. It is recommended to treat them with a water-repellent spray and avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain to maintain the leather's condition.
What does 'LWG-certified' mean?
LWG stands for Leather Working Group. Certification means the leather was produced in a tannery that adheres to environmental best practices, focusing on responsible water use, energy consumption, and waste management.
How do I store these boots when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape. Avoid direct sunlight and humidity.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 5.5cm (2.17 inches).
How do I break in the boots?
Wear them for short periods around the house, gradually increasing the duration. Wearing them with thicker socks can also help stretch the leather gently.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Wear the boots for short periods indoors to allow the leather to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth and try again.
Leather shows water spots or stains
Clean the affected area gently with a damp cloth. Allow to dry naturally away from heat. Apply a leather conditioner once dry. Consider using a protective spray to prevent future stains.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
If slippage is a concern, consider having a cobbler add a rubber sole protector or use anti-slip sole grips.
