Pretty Green PG Koala High Boots - Brown - UK 8

The PG Koala High Boots are designed for everyday wear and smart-casual styling. The crepe rubber outsole offers reliable grip on urban surfaces but is not intended for challenging hiking or rugged terrain.

Regularly wipe with a damp cloth, use a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness, and consider a leather protector spray for added defense against the elements. Always test cleaning products on a small, hidden area first.

While the leather offers some protection, these boots are not waterproof. For heavy rain, it's advisable to apply a waterproofing spray and avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture. Allow them to dry naturally if they get wet.

For comfort and to aid in the break-in process, mid-weight casual socks are recommended. Avoid very thin socks initially, as they might not provide enough cushioning during the break-in period.

Loosen the laces significantly before putting the boot on. Once on, tighten the laces evenly from the bottom up, ensuring a snug but not constricting fit. Tie securely at the top eyelets.

The lifespan of the crepe rubber outsole depends on the frequency and intensity of wear. With regular everyday use, it provides good cushioning and flexibility. For very heavy use, signs of wear may appear sooner.

This is common with new leather. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Walking around indoors can help break them in. Avoid prolonged wear until they feel comfortable.

Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture and remove or minimize the spots. Using a waterproofing spray can help prevent future occurrences.

Crepe rubber can be slightly slick when new or on very smooth, wet surfaces. Wear will naturally scuff the sole and improve grip. Ensure the sole is clean of debris.
