Product Information

Full details

The Paraboot Michael Low Shoe is an iconic choice for adults seeking a sophisticated blend of rugged durability and classic style. Perfect for those who value artisan-level construction, this shoe features high-quality leather and a robust lug sole that handles daily wear with ease. One caveat to keep in mind is that the substantial Norwegian-welt construction and rubber soles provide a heavier feel compared to traditional dress shoes, which may require a short breaking-in period.

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Norwegian-welt construction provides high water resistance, making them very effective in wet conditions, though they should not be fully submerged.

How do I determine the right size?

The Paraboot Michael typically fits true to standard UK sizing, but if you intend to wear them with thick socks, you may want to consider your standard boot size.

How often should I condition the leather?

It is recommended to condition the leather every 3 to 6 months depending on how frequently you wear them and the climate conditions.

Can the rubber soles be replaced?

Yes, thanks to the quality of the welt construction, Paraboot shoes are designed to be re-soled by a professional cobbler.

What is the best way to store them?

Always store in a cool, dry place using cedar shoe trees to maintain shape and control odor.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff upon first wear

This is normal for high-quality leather. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot.

Surface scuffs appearing on leather

Gently buff the area with a horsehair brush or a leather cream designed for your specific leather finish to blend the scuffs.

Water spots on the leather

Wipe the entire shoe with a slightly damp cloth to even out moisture, then let it dry naturally away from direct heat before applying a light layer of leather conditioner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your Paraboot Michael shoes, use wooden shoe trees immediately after wearing to maintain the original shape and absorb moisture. For routine maintenance, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Periodically apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Avoid storing these shoes near direct heat sources, as this can dry out the leather and compromise the integrity of the welt stitching. Because they are built with a robust fit, ensure you select your correct UK size to avoid excessive friction.
