FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

The Kelsey boots are made of suede and are not inherently waterproof. While they can tolerate light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions. Applying a suede protector spray can offer some water resistance.

How do I clean mud off the suede?

Allow the mud to dry completely first. Once dry, gently brush away the dried mud with a suede brush. For any remaining marks, use a suede eraser carefully.

Can I wear these boots in winter?

These boots are suitable for cooler weather but may not provide sufficient warmth or protection for heavy snow or icy conditions. They are best for dry, cold days.

What is the best way to store these boots?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a dust bag. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.

How often should I reapply suede protector?

It's generally recommended to reapply suede protector every few months, or after cleaning or exposure to significant moisture, to maintain optimal protection.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The fit can vary. While designed for a standard width, wearing them with thinner socks might offer more room. For wide feet, it's best to try them on if possible or consult customer reviews regarding fit.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, a suede eraser may be used.

Water stains on suede

Allow the boot to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, gently brush with a suede brush to restore the texture. Applying a suede protector can help prevent future water spots.

Boots feel slightly tight

Wear the boots with thicker socks for a short period to help them stretch slightly. A professional cobbler may also offer stretching services.
