FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather is durable and resistant, they are not strictly waterproof; regular conditioning is recommended to maintain weather resistance.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
These boots typically fit true to size, but the leather will stretch and mold to your foot shape after breaking them in.
Can I use inserts or orthotics?
Yes, the internal space is generally accommodating, but ensure you select a slim-profile insert if the fit is already snug.
What is the best way to clean the yellow stitching?
Use a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush with mild soapy water to gently scrub dirt from the stitching.
Do these boots require special care?
Regular wiping with a damp cloth and occasional leather conditioning are all that is needed to keep the leather in optimal condition.
Troubleshooting
The boots feel too stiff when first worn
This is normal for new leather. Wear thick socks and walk for short intervals to gradually soften the material.
The leather surface looks dull or dry
Apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner to restore the oil finish and maintain suppleness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, it is recommended to clean them regularly with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Because the leather is finished with an oiled look, apply a leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying and cracking. Ensure you store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can damage the natural material. When putting them on, use a shoehorn if you find the entry tight to protect the integrity of the heel counter and elastic gussets.
