Full details
The Sebago Dan Po Lt Moccasin in Black is designed for the adult male seeking comfortable, water-resistant footwear for casual wear, especially in unpredictable weather.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for formal occasions?
The Sebago Dan Po Lt Moccasin is designed for casual wear. While stylish, they are not typically recommended for formal events.
How do I know which fitting (R, S, W) to choose?
If possible, try on different fittings to determine which best suits the width of your foot. Generally, 'R' is standard, 'S' is slimmer, and 'W' is wider.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, the leather sock insole is designed for comfort, and many people wear these moccasins sockless. However, personal preference and foot hygiene should be considered.
How durable is the foam rubber sole?
The foam rubber sole provides good traction and is designed for everyday wear. Its durability will depend on usage intensity and surface conditions.
What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?
With proper care and regular maintenance, these hand-sewn leather moccasins can last for several years, depending on the frequency of wear and environmental conditions.
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
The shoes feature a water-resistant foam rubber sole, offering protection against light moisture and splashes. They are not designed for submersion or heavy downpours.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff
Apply a leather conditioner to soften the material. Wear the shoes for short periods to help them break in.
Slight water ingress
While water-resistant, the shoes are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, consider more robust footwear. Ensure soles are free of debris that might compromise resistance.
Sole shows wear
Regular cleaning of the sole will help maintain its grip. For significant wear, consult a cobbler for potential sole repair or replacement options.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
- Conditioning: Use a good quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking.
