FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
These boat shoes are made from leather and are not inherently waterproof. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water. Applying a water repellent spray can enhance their resistance.
How do I choose the right size?
The size listed is UK 13.5. It is recommended to compare this to your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes or unsure, consider checking the brand's specific sizing chart for Timberland.
What does 'handsewn' mean for the construction?
Handsewn construction refers to a traditional method where the upper part of the shoe is stitched to the sole by hand. This method often results in a more durable and flexible shoe with a distinctive aesthetic.
How should I care for the red leather?
Care for the red leather the same way as other premium leather. Clean with a soft brush, condition periodically with a leather conditioner, and protect with a suitable spray. Avoid harsh chemicals that could affect the color.
What is the benefit of supporting Leather Working Group certified tanneries?
Purchasing this product supports responsible manufacturing of leather. Leather Working Group certification indicates that the tannery adheres to environmental best practices, including energy and water consumption, waste management, and chemical usage.
Can I wear these shoes year-round?
Yes, the classic boat shoe design and durable materials make them suitable for year-round wear, depending on your climate and personal preference. The leather lining offers breathability for warmer months.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
This is common with new leather footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The leather will soften with use.
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone
Ensure the rawhide laces are properly broken in. You can try a double knot for added security. If laces fray, consider replacing them with new rawhide laces.
Leather scuffs or scratches appear
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a leather repair kit or a color-matched polish. Regular conditioning can help prevent surface damage.
