FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather and rubber are durable, these boots are not explicitly waterproof. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided by the retailer. These boots are typically sized according to UK men's footwear standards. Consider the width of your foot, as the pull-on style can be snug.

Can I wear these boots in the summer?

Yes, the mid-calf height and leather construction make them suitable for wear in warmer months, especially with appropriate clothing choices. Ventilation is dependent on personal foot perspiration.

What is the best way to clean the rubber sole?

Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent any moisture buildup.

How often should I condition the leather?

It is recommended to condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more frequently if the boots are worn often or exposed to dry conditions, to keep the material supple.

What is the return policy?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the store where you purchased the boots.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight on first wear.

Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially, or consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is significant.

Leather appears dry or scuffed.

Apply a good quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and flexibility. For scuffs, try a leather repair balm or polish matching the black color.

Slight squeaking sound from the sole.

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. It may resolve with wear. Ensure the sole is clean and dry. A small amount of talcum powder on the insole can sometimes help if the squeak is internal.

Care Instructions:

  • Leather Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner following product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the calfskin supple and prevent drying or cracking.
  • Suede/Nubuck: If applicable to specific parts (though these are described as smooth leather), use a suede brush or eraser.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
