FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Grader Chukka boots are made from suede, which is naturally water-resistant but not waterproof. We recommend applying a suede protector spray.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal footbed can be replaced with custom orthotics or third-party insoles if desired.
What is the best way to clean the outsole?
You can wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove mud or grime.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While they provide good traction on urban terrain, they are designed for casual city wear rather than rugged trail hiking.
Do these boots run true to size?
The CAT Grader series generally follows standard sizing, though you should refer to your typical UK shoe size for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel slightly stiff upon first wear
Suede and leather footwear often require a brief break-in period; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the materials to conform to your feet.
Water spots appear on the suede
Allow the boots to dry completely, then use a suede brush to restore the nap; if the spot remains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your CAT Grader boots last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Before wearing them outside, apply a high-quality suede water-repellent spray to create a barrier against moisture and dirt.
- Routine Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dust and debris after each wear to prevent buildup.
- Stain Management: For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner, following the product instructions carefully.
- Drying: If the boots become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can cause the suede to harden or crack.
