FAQs

What material are the Dune London Tepi Knee High Boots made from?

> Info needed: [specific material]. The original product description refers to them as a 'stylish and versatile footwear option' from the 'Tepi series' without specifying the primary material for this variant. Some other variants in the Tepi series are described as 'Leather'.

How do I determine the correct size?

These boots are available in UK adult sizes. We recommend selecting your standard UK shoe size. For best fit, especially with knee-high boots, consider trying them on to ensure comfort around both the foot and the calf.

Are these boots suitable for wide calves?

> Info needed: [specific calf circumference or design features like elastic panels/stretch material]. The product information does not specify if these boots are designed with a wider calf fit. It is advisable to check specific measurements or try them on if you have concerns about calf fit.

Can I wear these boots in the rain?

The product information does not specify if these boots are waterproof or water-resistant. Generally, knee-high boots, especially if leather or suede (if applicable), are not fully waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. Consider applying a suitable protective spray for water resistance, testing first on an inconspicuous area.

How do I clean these boots?

Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section above. General cleaning involves wiping with a soft, damp cloth. For specific cleaning agents (e.g., leather cleaner, synthetic cleaner), the material composition needs to be confirmed. Always allow boots to air dry naturally.

Are these boots comfortable for all-day walking?

The Tepi series is described as offering a 'blend of fashion and comfort for everyday wear.' While designed to be comfortable for general daily use, 'all-day walking' comfort can be subjective and depend on individual foot needs and the terrain. Adding supportive insoles can enhance comfort for prolonged periods.

Do these boots have a zipper?

> Info needed: [specific design details]. The product description does not explicitly state whether the boots feature a zipper or are pull-on. This detail can affect ease of wear and calf fit.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or loose around the calf.

Knee-high boot fit can vary. For tightness, try wearing them with thinner hosiery or consider if the material will stretch slightly with wear (if applicable). For looseness, thicker socks or boot cuffs might help. Unfortunately, calf fit is often fixed; if it's significantly uncomfortable, it may not be the right fit for your leg shape.

Scuffs or minor marks appear on the boot surface.

For light scuffs, use a soft, damp cloth to gently rub the area. For deeper scuffs on leather (if applicable), a matching shoe polish or leather repair balm might help. For other materials, a specialized cleaner may be needed. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.

Boots losing their knee-high shape and slouching.

This can often be resolved with boot shapers or by stuffing the boots with crumpled newspaper or tissue paper when storing them. This helps maintain the upright silhouette and prevents creasing.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Squeaking can sometimes be caused by friction between parts of the boot, or between the insole and the shoe body. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole if it's removable. If the squeak is external, check for loose parts or material rubbing.

Boots feel uncomfortable after extended wear.

While designed for comfort, individual foot shapes vary. Consider adding cushioned insoles for extra support and shock absorption. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, it may indicate a fit issue.

General Boot Care Tips:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a cleaner appropriate for the boot's specific material (e.g., leather cleaner, synthetic cleaner).
  2. Drying: If wet, allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can cause damage or warping.
  3. Storage: Store boots upright, ideally with boot shapers or crumpled paper inside, to help maintain their knee-high structure. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  4. Protection: Consider applying a protective spray suitable for the boot's material to guard against water and stains. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  5. Polishing/Conditioning: If the boots are leather, periodically use a suitable leather conditioner or polish to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Always follow product instructions.
