FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The CAT Grader Chukka boots are not explicitly waterproof. It is recommended to treat them with a suede-safe water repellent spray.
Can I replace the insoles?
The boots feature a molded PU foam footbed. While it is designed for maximum comfort, you may swap it for custom orthotics if necessary.
Are they suitable for heavy construction work?
While durable, these are styled as lifestyle chukkas and do not possess the heavy-duty safety features (like steel toes) required for industrial work sites.
How should I clean the rubber outsole?
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove mud or grime and restore traction.
Is the suede prone to losing its color?
Like all natural suede, excessive direct sunlight can cause fading. Using a color-restoring suede spray can help maintain the syrup tone over time.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff upon first wear
Suede is a natural material; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot.
Water spots on the suede
Allow the boots to air dry completely, then use a suede brush in circular motions to lift the grain and remove the water marking.
Accumulation of surface dirt
Use a soft-bristle brush to gently whisk away dry dirt. Do not use soap and water as it can damage the suede texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots arrive ready to wear. To ensure longevity and performance:
- Suede Protection: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before first use to create a barrier against water and minor stains.
- Routine Maintenance: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dust and revive the nap after daily use.
- Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede eraser or cleaner; avoid soaking the leather entirely.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and keep the suede supple.
- Fit Check: Ensure the size matches your standard UK sizing as the structure is true to size but benefits from a break-in period for the leather to mold to your foot shape.
