Product Information
Full details
The Moretta Varallo Country Boots are an ideal choice for active children who need a versatile footwear solution for the stables, countryside walks, or casual riding. These boots provide excellent comfort and protection through a waterproof membrane and durable leather construction, offering a high-performance balance for outdoor life. However, prospective buyers should note that as leather footwear, they require regular cleaning and conditioning to maintain their suppleness and weather resistance over time.

FAQs
Are these boots suitable for long rides?
Yes, they feature an ActiveFlex insole and steel shanks, making them comfortable for extended periods of riding.
Can these boots be machine washed?
No, leather boots should never be machine washed as this will ruin the material and the waterproof membrane.
What should I do if the boots get soaked?
Stuff them with newspaper to absorb internal moisture and let them air dry slowly at room temperature.
Are they true to size?
The Varallo boots generally follow standard UK children's sizing; however, the stretch panel allows for some flexibility in fit.
Can I use these for competitive riding?
While they are stirrup compatible and safe for riding, they are designed primarily as country and yard boots rather than formal competition footwear.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clean out any dirt or debris from the teeth and apply a dedicated zipper lubricant or a small amount of beeswax.
Leather looks dull or dry
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and maintain the waterproof barrier.
Water seems to be seeping in
Check the leather surface for deep scratches or cracks that may have bypassed the waterproof membrane and treat with a wax-based sealer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps.
- Initial Care: Before the first use, apply a leather protector or cream to nourish the hide.
- Cleaning: After use in mud, wipe the boots down with a damp cloth to prevent acidic mud from drying out the leather.
- Drying: Allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to become brittle.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use boot trees if possible to help the leather maintain its shape.
- Zip Maintenance: Periodically clear grit from the YKK zip to ensure it continues to slide smoothly.
