FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?
While the Nathaniel series includes supple lining for comfort, they are primarily designed as formal dress shoes rather than for long-distance walking.
How do I clean the metallic buckles?
Gently wipe the buckles with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the metal finish or the surrounding leather.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
They generally follow standard UK sizing, but keep in mind that leather footwear may feel snug initially before relaxing to your foot shape.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is best to avoid heavy rain, as excessive moisture can damage the leather finish. If they get wet, dry them slowly at room temperature.
What is the best way to store these shoes?
Always store them in a cool, dry place using shoe trees to maintain the structural integrity of the defined toe cap.
Troubleshooting
Stiffness when new
The leather will soften over time; wear the shoes for short periods daily to help them conform to your feet.
Buckles becoming loose
Check the strap adjustment points periodically to ensure the buckle is securely fastened in the desired hole.
Surface scuffs on blue finish
Use a light coat of matching blue leather polish or a neutral leather conditioner to buff out minor surface abrasions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Jones Bootmaker shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the buckled straps are adjusted to match your foot's arch profile without being overly tight.
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
- Maintenance: Use a high-quality leather cream or polish specifically matched for blue leather to keep the material hydrated and vibrant.
- Storage: Store with cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain the shape of the toe cap.
- Cleaning: Wipe down with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove dust. If the leather gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
