CAT Colorado 2.0 - Black / 4

The full-grain leather upper offers natural water resistance, meaning they can handle light rain and splashes. However, they are not explicitly designed to be fully waterproof. For enhanced protection in wet conditions, we recommend applying a waterproof treatment or wax specifically formulated for leather boots.

Start by wiping off loose dirt with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner with a soft brush or cloth, following the product's instructions. Afterwards, always apply a leather conditioner to moisturize the material.

EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) foam is a soft, resilient material used in footwear for cushioning and shock absorption. The soft EVA foam footbed in these boots provides comfort and reduces impact on your feet, especially during long periods of standing or walking.

Yes, their durable construction and classic design make them suitable for year-round wear. While the leather offers some warmth, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold. They are comfortable for most seasons, especially with appropriate sock choices.

Full-grain leather is considered the highest quality and most durable type of leather. It comes from the top layer of the hide and includes all of the natural grain. This means it retains the hide's full strength, breathability, and natural imperfections, which contribute to its unique character and ability to develop a rich patina over time.

CAT Colorado 2.0 Boots generally run true to standard adult sizing for unisex footwear. If you typically wear a half size, it's often recommended to try the next half size up, or consult specific sizing charts if available. Comfort during the break-in period is key.

This is common with new full-grain leather boots. Allow for a break-in period by wearing them for short durations, gradually increasing wear time. The leather will soften and conform to your foot over time. Using a leather conditioner can also help.

The leather needs conditioning. Clean the boots thoroughly with a damp cloth, then apply a good quality leather conditioner or cream. This will rehydrate the leather and restore its natural oils.

Squeaking can come from various sources. Check if the laces are too tight or rubbing. You can also try removing the footbed (if removable) and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the boot to reduce friction between components. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris.

Inspect the outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the tread thoroughly with a stiff brush and water to remove any dirt or mud that might be compromising grip. If the tread is significantly worn, consider professional resoling if available for these boots.

Always allow wet leather boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, clean and apply a generous amount of leather conditioner to rehydrate and restore the leather's flexibility.
