FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

The Forester boots are crafted from high-quality leather, providing natural water resistance. We recommend applying a leather protector spray for enhanced protection against heavy moisture.

How should I clean the leather?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Once dry, use a leather-specific cleaner or conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the material.

Are these suitable for deep hiking?

While the Max-Grip soles are very capable, these are primarily designed as stylish winter city and lifestyle boots rather than technical alpine hiking gear.

Do the boots run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but if you plan to wear thick wool winter socks, you may want to consider your fit preference.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the internal EVA insoles can be removed and replaced with custom orthotics or fresh inserts if desired.

Troubleshooting

Boots feeling stiff during the first wear

This is common with high-quality leather. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to flex and conform to your foot shape.

Decreased traction on icy surfaces

Check the soles for debris or packed-in snow. Clean the treads with a brush to restore the effectiveness of the HH Max-Grip technology.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These boots are ready to wear out of the box, but proper care will extend their lifespan significantly. To maintain the leather, wipe off road salt and dirt after every use with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid drying the boots near high-heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the leather to crack over time. If the leather begins to look dull or loses its water-resistance properties, apply a high-quality leather conditioner or waterproofing spray designed for full-grain leather. Ensure the boots are completely air-dried in a well-ventilated area before storing them for the season.
