Does the sizing fit true to standard?

Troubleshooting

A white matte finish appears on the surface of the leather.

This is a natural occurrence with high-quality leather. Simply buff the leather with a soft cloth or a horsehair brush to restore its natural sheen.

Leather feels stiff after a period of non-use.

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream to soften the fibers and restore suppleness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Paraboot Malibu shoes last for years, proper storage and routine care are essential. Always store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from drying out. Use a quality shoe horn when putting them on to maintain the integrity of the heel counter. For cleaning, wipe away loose dust with a soft cloth and apply a neutral or black leather cream periodically to nourish the hide. If the leather gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally at room temperature—avoid using radiators or hairdryers, as intense heat can damage the leather grain.
