FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather is durable and handles light moisture well, these boots are not explicitly waterproof. We recommend applying a leather-safe water repellent spray for extra protection.
What is Leather Working Group certification?
It is an international organization that ensures leather is produced in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner.
Can I replace the insoles?
The boots feature a specialized cushioned insole. While it is fixed for structural support, it is designed for maximum comfort for most users.
How do I clean the chunky sole?
Use a damp sponge with a mild soapy solution to wipe down the outer sole. Avoid submerging the leather upper in water.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The boot provides a standard fit. If you are between sizes or have a wider foot, we suggest trying them with thin socks initially to allow the leather to stretch.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Gently rub a wax candle or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth of the zip to restore smooth movement.
Leather looks dull or loses color
Use a leather cleaner to remove accumulated dirt, followed by an appropriate blue leather cream polish to restore the finish.
Boots feel slightly tight initially
Leather naturally conforms to the shape of your foot over time; wear them for short periods around the house to facilitate the break-in process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The boots feature an inside zip closure; ensure the zipper track is clear of debris to maintain smooth operation.
Compatibility: These boots are true to size for a standard UK 7 fit, though it is recommended to wear medium-weight socks to optimize the fit of the leather structure.
Care Instructions: To preserve the leather, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth after each use. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Use a blue-toned or neutral leather polish to maintain the vibrancy of the color. Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can dry out the leather.
