FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the construction is durable for urban weather, they are not marketed as fully waterproof hiking boots. Standard water-resistant sprays can improve their performance in light rain.
Are these suitable for hiking?
No, these are specifically designed for urban use. They lack the specialized traction and support features required for rugged, uneven hiking trails.
How should I clean the leather version?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner if needed. Follow up with a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, if you require custom orthotics, you can typically remove the factory-provided insoles and replace them with your own.
Are these boots true to size?
The Glenclyffe Urban Boots are generally consistent with standard adult sizing. If you are between sizes, it is usually best to try them on with the type of socks you intend to wear.
What is the best way to break them in?
Wear them for short periods around the house or on short walks over several days to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight after long walks
Feet often swell during the day; ensure you are wearing appropriate socks and consider loosening the lacing system for better circulation.
Outer material showing water spots
Clean gently with a specialized leather or suede cleaner and allow to air dry naturally away from heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your Glenclyffe Urban Boots is straightforward. Ensure you have selected your correct UK size for the best fit. If you plan on wearing thicker winter socks, consider if your standard size allows enough room.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt and debris after use with a soft, damp cloth.
- Drying: Always let your boots air dry at room temperature; avoid placing them near heaters, radiators, or direct fire, as extreme heat can damage materials.
- Maintenance: Depending on the specific material (leather or suede), use appropriate protective sprays to repel water and stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and integrity of the materials.
